Push-ups, SDHP, Ring dips, weighted pull-ups, HSPU 080519, Cindy

Me
Pack:
50 Push-ups
35 x 30kg Sumo-deadlift high-pull
35 Ring Dips
20 x 16kg Weighted Pull-ups, rapidly dropping to 5kg
15 Handstand Push-ups - Piked on 20" box

23:28
Splits were; 3:31, 2:06, 7:46, 8:20, 1:43.
The ring dips and weighted pull-ups felt a LOT longer than 8 minutes.

• Push-ups felt OK. Surprisingly so. Still broken, but not the terrible ordeal they normally are.
• SDHP pretty cruisy, especially when I remembered to get my hips into it.
• Dips were down to triples and doubles after about 15 reps.
• Pull-ups went 1x16kg and there wasn't going to be a 2nd, 2 x 12kg and there wasn't going to be a 3rd, 2 x 6kg and there wasn't going to be a 3rd. Then I switched to my 5kg baby dumbbell and got an attack of the stubborns. I should have dropped to dead-hangs.
• I think I need to video my HSPU, they felt too easy.

That J.T. combination of movements is a sod no matter how you spice it up. And weighted pull-ups is not how I'd have improved the "taste".

Better than last time, all I could manage was 8kg then.

Remind me not to have such a big lunch next time I'm doing this, and to take the heavy cellphone off my belt first. I'm sure I could have got another set of 14kg if I had "optimised" my performance.

+ parallette press-ups (usually do ring press-ups, but I finished making the parallettes today and wanted to play)

Weighted pull-ups

1 x 5kg
1 x 5kg
1 x 5kg feeling too easy and there's a 12kg dumbbell already made up sitting right there
failed at 12kg
1 x 8kg
1 x 8kg
1 x 8kg with much pulling of faces and wild kicking of feet, I mean kipping

For a guy with the wrong power-to-weight ratio to do pull-ups, that's a better start than I expected.
Slogging away at the beginners pull-ups is paying off and Eva's CFJ article and video on kipping might just get me doing them Crossfit style yet.
And I could always work on that power to weight ratio thing.
Lose weight;get stronger. Hmmm, decisions.
