I was a bit tired after so many days on, but I haven't been training twice a day, so my body feels generally good, but I am just tired. I've just been in a relatively intense training course this week, packing up for moving last week... just been a lot less sleep than usual and I felt it this AM .... Anyway, once I got rolling, today was a REALLY solid class ... tons of gymnastics work, all stuff I need to work on more. I really enjoyed the EMOM warm-up, I felt very prepared to start the conditioning.
A.
EMOM 12 (3 sets) of:
Station 1 - 2 Wall-Walks and :15-:20 of wall-facing split
Station 2 - :30-:45 of Single-unders
Station 3 - :30 of shoulder touches (against wall)
Station 4 - :60 of Rope Climbs (15’)
-Complete ... great warm-up / skill work ... was getting 3 RC a minute
B.
4 RFT (22 min time cap)
100 Double-Unders
50’ HSW
8 Ring Muscle-ups
50' HSW
-Time Cap (22:00) + 25' HSW ... I almost finished this, just had the last bit of HSW left ... I was thrashed by the end of this ... DU were a bit of a shit-show on the back half ... HSW were in 25' increments every time ... all ring MU went 5/3 ... super solid conditioning workout. I really enjoyed getting this in.
