...been a long time

With a continuously running clock, 1 pullup for each minute you add. I got through 18 minutes with the 18th pullup at exactly 59 seconds of the 18th minute. I needed to rest, but didn't get bak on for a few more. I should have, but my tank was on "E" and I let myself off the hook. Bummer.

Yesterday, 50 ring dips, 400m, 50 pushups, 400m run, 50 HSPU, 400m run.
I did it in 21:18 (I think, I deleted my time before typing it in so the seconds may be a bit off).
I had worked on my handstands the night before, but had understimated the drain that the ring dips and pushups would place on my upperbody. I did 7 prone hspu before moving to a pike hspu with my feet on a 24 inch box. I may not have been in a perfect pike, but it was hard to tell with others blocking the mirror. In any case, since overhead lifts are a weakness of mine, I am going to add handstand work to my warm up on non-shoulder days. There was a pretty good journal article on handstands with recommendations for improvements. We'll see how it goes.

The WoD listed for today was a combination of snatches and L-pullups. My shoulders saw that and instantly started to plead with me to sub a different WoD. So I found a bodyweight WoD I could do at home:
Warm-up = 3 rounds of 20lb ball clean to wallball and 20 double unders
3 rounds for time of
50 pushups
50 situps
50 squats
5:03, 5:45, 6:15 = 17:04
I was trying for all sets in the low 5 minutes, but the sit-ups got me again. Before Cossfit, I had back pain with situps. This went away for a long time with crossfit, but it is back again. I think it may be time to make or buy an abmat and see if this helps.
