Today I really wanted to focus on proper form b/c this is one exercise that has always elluded me, i have done wrong and it has hurt! Maybe I have it now – thanks Russell.

Lots of problems with this one, not the least of which are a substantial lack of explosiveness and bad form.
4 rounds, each for time of : 3 sets of each: 5 Pull Ups, 10 PushUps(explosive), 15 Jump Squats.
3 mins rest between each of the 4 rounds.

Goal was to focus more on explosiveness which is weaker for me than endurance. After doing this I did feel that I reached/maintained greater overall intensity for each rep then in the past when I have done a normal Cindy. Pull ups were deadhang because the bar I was using isn’t super condusive to kipping (too short). Need to work on kipping though, it is a weakness.

Not sure if everyone is aware, but Clint and his wife Myrna had their baby yesterday. They named him Kaleb Mark Dye.
9lbs, 2 oz Myrna was only in labor about 20 minutes. Everyone is healthy and fine.

Form wasn’t good. I was basically just powering it up. If I can get the jump thing down, I should be able to get the weight on up there.

Form was poor. Muscled it up.
