Finally! Nailed one off camera then set camera up to record. After the failed second attempt on camera I nailed the 3rd one with a bit of strain unlike the first one off camera. My MU training consisted of many, many pull ups ( dead hang and kipping) on rings bars and anything I could hang from. My muscles eventually adapted to the transition phase of the muscle up where I previously got hung up…… repeatedly. In addition to the obvious pulling strength needed i trained my core through the use of L-pull ups. My dropping a few pounds also helped my efforts. In the end it was practice and adaptation that made my recent attempts easier.
That’s 95 lb on the bar The monsters in the video hit 2:37. I hit a new PR of 5:13 It knocked me out, good. Shooting for under four minutes by the end of ’08
Tuesday Warm up… two rounds of: 20 push ups 20 single leg deadlifts 20 single leg squats 10 pliometric jumps
Two rounds of: 185 lb bench press x10 205 lb deadlift x10 no swing chin up x10 pistol squat x5 each leg
Pistol
Round three we took the bench and deadlift down to 135 and upped the reps to 15
Finisher was Tabata burpees. You want to test yourself? Do this. Again, Tabata is 20 seconds on, 10 seconds off for eight rounds. You MUST use maximum intensity for all rounds and aim to complete as many reps of the chosen exercise as possible. Total time is always four minutes.
Woke up and went for a run with Otto to the park where we did pull ups, a few dips and 10 seventy five meter sprints, the last few I started behind and got Otto to focus on finishing strong. Always ALWAYS finish your runs strong. Teach your body, your mind and therefore the nervous system to respond with force for the last 10 steps. Lean into the finish. Your are not Usain Bolt, you do not have his genetic gifts. Push to the finish line or don’t push at all.
Now we are here working in 8 point surround.
You can see three of the eight stacks. Eight channels, eight independent inputs, eight trajectories of sound…
Last night we saw this guy: LINK WOWZA!!! …as well as Sun Ra Arkestra again.
