Jumping Muscle ups to lock out at top.

I don't know who is writing the CFHQ programming, but I am tired of all the thrusters. But I dislike thrusters, which probably means I am weak at thrusters, and I need to be doing them more.

Following CF Main page programming is really an act of blind faith. You trust that who is writing the WODs really knows what they are doing, and are being strategic about the WODs. But then again, you are also praying they are not coming up with these WOD ideas while drunk or dealing with a gas bubble.

Three rounds, 15-12-and 9 reps, for time of:
135 pound barbell Thrusters
45 pound weighted Pull-ups

For weighted pull-ups, placing a 45 pound dumbbell between the legs above crossed ankles works great.

Modified 63lb thrusters, jumping pullups

Why oh why so many thrusters this past week?

This as was forwarded to me in an email. And I love it.

However it's not the original Nike Ad, but I love it much better than the original.

While on the Nike Blog, I saw this one as well.

Yes I have a big butt and thunder thighs.
And they will soon be toned from lots of rowing, box jumps, and kettlebell swings.

If we don't start, it's certain we can't arrive. Zig Ziglar

I would of done better, but on thruster #4 of the first round I drove the bar up to overhead before my chin was out of the way. Hitting my chin caused me to bite my tongue pretty bad, and see stars for a bit. I had to lean on a bar rack for a while. The rest of the WOD, the throbbing of my chin and mouth was a big distraction and I couldn't focus on the WOD fully. It was really frustrating, but I was able to still finish.
