Try washing that rip with soap and water and then apply some tea tree oil. That stuff works great!

5# is a pretty big jump for a shoulder press once you get close to your 1RM. Do you have any change plates i.e. 1# or less? Way to crush Part B!

A. Worked up to 90# for 2 reps but failed at 95 for 1. I worked a lot on snatches yesterday and my shoulders felt pretty tired today. My PR is 95 so hope to hit 100 soon.

B. 4 rounds plus 21 reps. I did band assisted strict PUs to give my shoulders a break and work on strength.

C. done with 75# and holy crap those hollow rocks got hard fast!

A ➡️72kg – really wasn’t feeling strong so this was a surprise

B 5rd + 5 hpc and 5 pull ups

C I did muscle up progressions with friends . Don’t think it’s possible to be any closer to getting one and still fail .

Great work today Patrick!

Do you have a coach watch you as you attempt your muscle ups?

Patrick

Yep . I was doing them under the eyes of 3 of our coaches . All of which say I have a muscle up as I’m above the rings in height I just can’t get my head through . I’ve been doing the progression drills on the lower rings I just can’t get it right 9″ up in the air
