Felt like I could have gone a little higher, but ran out of time. Thanks to Josh for help getting the bar moving straight up.
Not that it probably affected me much, but my legs are completely wasted from Saturday’s 5k then WOD and clearing out food plots in the woods yesterday. Getting a massage later today to help out (I hope).
Chick-Fil-A is giving away a free entree every Monday night in April from 5-7PM. Today: 8-pack chicken nuggets. There is no purchase required and its available at every Chic-Fil-A location in Huntsville/Madison.
Can’t beat FREE 🙂 Those things are like crack to my kids.
Today we did a light sandstorm workout…LT said we cancel when visibility gets below 200m, & we were at least 500m this afternoon… 😉
7 rounds for time:
200m run
9 overhead squats @ 115#
9 pullups
I scaled to 75# & jumping pullups
24:50 (lost a couple minutes first round or two, with confusion over places/boxes, etc, but it straightened itself out by round 3)
Had to miss WOD to attend a dinner, ugh!! Got off work at 415, so I took a very brisk 3 mile walk thru Research Park. Was HOT! I sweated like crazy, so felt like I got a little workout in. 😉 Looked really cute at dinner, haha–but glad I keep deodorant in one of my desk drawers!!
Snatch balance practice with the class then:
5/3/1 Back Squat: 175(5)-190(5)box-210(7)box
Couldn’t get depth on the regular back squats so used a the flat bench for box squats. Technically half squats because I wasn’t below parallel.
I made it up to about 95 lbs and started falling. I think the problem with all of my overhead squats is shoulder strength and flexibility. I just can’t seem to keep it in the correct spot overhead.

Thanks for sharing Katie…I heard about this last week, but didn’t know it was each Monday in April….SWEET!!
The question is: Are the Fry Daddy’s & Peanut Oil Zone Friendly? 🙂

Should have rested today. Exhausted from 6hrs of landscaping yesterday.
I GOT A MUSCLE UP TODAY!!!! (Then about 10 more to make sure it wasn’t a fluke!)
Oh.. as a side note – snatch balance 65-75-85-95-105-115-125(ugly)
I GOT A MUSCLE UP!!!! WOO HOO!!!
WAY TO GO KAREN!! REGIONALS HERE WE COME!!
It had to be Heath’s coaching. Four feet in the air is a good cue…:) Im excited for you.
Heath was awesome! Great coaching!
It is official!!! I even got it on film.
I need to work on the video before it is presentable ; )
-DMR style
A DMR approved muscle up!!! That is legit! Congrats Karen!
Great job Karen! Congrats!
Congrats, Karen! That’s awesome!
AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!! Big congrats Karen!!!!!!!!!!
Way to go Karen!!!!
Sounds like some of those drills and progressions paid off!
Thanks for helping me so much with them!
btw great article/rant on knee push ups. I TOTALLY AGREE. I prefer plop and plank, as to the peel off the floor method…peeling hurts my low back.
65 – 75 – 85 – 95 – 105 (x) – 105
I could NOT grip the bar for a snatch with shredded hands so I did 3×3 backsquat… 105-115-125PR
It was great seeing your face Karen when u got that MU!
After a year of trying, it felt SOOOO good! 😀
Karen,

This one just didn’t go well at all.
