Subbed 5 pull ups and 5 dips for the muscle ups. Do not have a high enough anchor point for rings unless someone has a suggestion? 185 lb cleans. Also did 24″ box again due to low ceilings.
5 rnds even

A. Mamba 3+2 as Rx. Farewell Kobe! Just glad it wasn’t some combo of 73 for the Warriors

I ran 2 miles with my running group then hit “Mamba” quite a bit later.
I was not in it today…one of those days I didnt want to do the wod. ( the nursing facility I work in has been hit with norovirus. CDC has put us on lockdown until last resident is free of symptoms for 48 hrs…Anyhow…stressful few days!)

-But…I committed to 3 rounds. Did low ring mu’s. 24″ box and 125# power cleans. Did the 3 rds in 13 mins.

Mamba Rxd. Probably should have scaled the power cleans but you live and learn.

Got 3 rds plus MUs, PCs, and 1 box jump. All 4 sets MUs UB with minimal shoulder pain

#155 pc’s, 30″ box….3+23
Finally got a decent set-up for rings at my gym, and I REALLY need to practice mu’s.

Subbed ring MU’s for bar MU’s. Nowhere to hang them at my gym.

Rx otherwise: 3 rds + 5 MU’s + 8 cleans + 2 box jumps

Side note: Today I was able to chain together multiple muscle ups in one fluid motion for the first time ever. I did round one completely unbroken and fluid. I’m very happy for that accomplishment today.

“Mamba” as Rx: 4 rounds + 2
… best muscle-ups have went in awhile – for some reason catching much higher on the rings …
