I did 60 pull-ups today!


I did 60 pull-ups today!

I'm so excited! I did "Badger"- or a smaller version of Badger.

I originally started off with plans to do
3 rounds of:
30 squat cleans (35#)
30 pull-ups
Run 800m

I told myself I wanted to do the first round of pull-ups on my own. The most I've done in a day before now was 25, so I figured 30 would be a good step up. After the first round, I expected to do the last 2 rounds with assistance.

But after the first round, I felt okay and wanted to keep trying pull-ups on my own. I told myself I'd do as many as I could, and if I had to move to the assistance machine, I would and I wouldn't be disappointd with myself.

Wouldn't you know that I made it through the second round without assistance? Boo-yah!

But, after 60 squat cleans, 60 pull-ups on my own, and 2- 800m sprints, I was toast. In fact, I thought I was going to barf. I was proud of the fact that I had more than doubled the # of pull-ups I could do in one workout and decided to skip the third round. It took me a total of 30:36 to do two rounds of "Badger".

You should see my hands- they're nasty. And my arms are so fatigued it hurts to even carry my water bottle. It might sound like I'm exaggerating, but I'm not. My bicep shakes when I lift my water bottle!

Now I'm extremely sleepy & will likely take a nap.

Happy 4th of July everyone!

Oh, and by the way, I did 60 pull-ups today! =]
