Saturday

Technique:  7 singles of weighted strict pullups

use a DB / weighted vest / whatever you can find that works and spend 15-20 minutes pulling some weight over the bar.

WOD: 10-8-6-4-2 for time of:

  • Box Jumps (30"/ 24")
  • Clapping Pushups
  • Deadlifts (250lbs / 175lbs)
If you are someone who usually scales pushups to knee pushups then try as best you can to complete these pushups from your toes.  Clapping pushups are chest to deck - clap in air.  These box jumps are meant to be higher than normal so if you are someone who usually scales down to 16", use 20".

Oh yeah and the best weighted pullup I've seen in person is 140lbs for guys and 60lbs for ladies...  Have fun!
