No real pull-ups yet. Although John, I hear you and Mike have created some kind of incentive for me? 🙂
We did? I mean, of course we did (Mike, am I supposed to play along here or what?).
John
By “play along” do you mean “mistakenly suggest that Caitlin got her first pullup, thereby changing Mike’s life forever?” 😉
Here are my two cents about this workout for what it’s worth: I really liked it. I feel like I was able to make up at least a little from my dnf yesterday. And this workout gave me a chance to see some personal progress with the pull ups.
Good job this morning Mike, I know everyone in the 7am group was happy/impressed you made it to 25!
Sidra
Swim,
Thanks, you too (good improvement today!)
It felt good to meet a goal; I’d been wanting 25 for a while. And i was very happy to protect my teammates from the 60 burpees I brought on you.
But I want to thank John and Mel, for keeping me honest (squats not deep enough, chest to the floor on pushups) and for constantly maintaining our culture at MPH, which is: no matter how well you think you did, you can always do better.
After yesterday’s great discussion on intensity, I felt very “in the zone” in this workout. There were small victories throughout. Most notably for me, never coming off the bar on those pull ups.
Also, for inspiration: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bf6H8yZEozw&feature=player_embedded
That guy’s strength is truly inspiring, but his form makes me cringe! Doesn’t that hurt his back? Gives me the shivers…
He’s ok—not unsafe. He has a decent flat back from the mid-trap on down, at least. That has to be hard to control at the shoulder blades, so I don’t fault him too much for being a little round at the top. I don’t know what that last deadlift/squat rep was all about though.
And you know me. I would rather see that raw—no straps, no belt.
The best part about that video is the comments below it. It’s a scary world out there, team.
John
really? this makes me want to watch a vid of myself…
…deadlifting in a dress?…that can be arranged…
Like I said, it’s not unsafe. It’s not flawless, but I don’t think he’s down for a discectomy later. And yes, we should get your deadlift on video soon.
John
I can’t believe you put me in the corner after I carried the watermelon :).
Sid, 1st great job today and I agree with you Cindy is a great way to work on the FUN-damentals. I was happy to see my progress on push-ups.. pull ups are still a work in progress.

I totally get your dirty dancing reference, don’t worry!
12 round…..2 pushups. slightly better than last time. pullups were done on the top support for a swing set, but since i can kip fairly regularly now vs. last time, not that happy with my results. self-motivation is certainly harder than the MPH environment, but I have two weeks of training on my own to work on better effort.
mike – 25? nice work.
jeff w – 14+; really nice
John
Thanks John. I hope to see you back soon. JW
Neil: 14 rounds + 3 push ups (sub: 2x BodyRow) I have a horrid gym at the hotel…but the nicest gym (that I have access to) is at least 30 min away…gotta try and figure out how to work that into the work schedule.
