Announcements:  Welcome back from the long weekend!  I hope that you did SOMETHING to stay active over the break and that you broke a sweat doing something more than just eating too much!!!!

Today we will meet in the '62 room and focus initially on gymnastic skills.  We will then transition to a quick WOD.

Equipment needed:  Set up all the rings at waist height.

Warm-up and instruction:  Matt will lead the group through muscle-up progressions and then everyone will have a chance to work on muscle-ups.  Adam will lead the group through handstand holds and shoulder touches and then everyone will have the change to work on each skill.

WOD:

AMRAP 3 - Muscle-ups (scale = jumping muscle-ups or 3:1 chest to bar pull-ups and ring dips)
Rest 3 minutes
AMRAP 3 - Handstand shoulder touches  (note: one touch = one rep; scale = hand release handstands or handstand holds for time)

Post number of muscle-ups and handstand shoulder touches to comments.

it was great to see a bunch of folks there this morning after the long weekend!

I got crushed on muscle-ups, definitely need to practice more often!

4 jumping muscle-ups...yes, 4!

15 transition (?) muscle ups.
50 shoulder touches, facing the wall.
3:13 for 100 situp cash-out afterwards... had a little extra time so I figured I'd throw that in.

Aloha,

I really blew the muscle-up part of the WOD. Usually and I can 5-6 in a row and then triples after that. I blame slippery hands, a poor warm-up, being sore and every other belly aching excuse out there. The bottom line is that it sucked and some times it is just like that.

MU: 5
ST: 130

That was tough today, but fun. 12 transitioning muscle ups and 50 handstand shoulder touches, those felt pretty weird, looking forward to practicing them more.

Holy crap.

5 jumping muscle ups.

Shoulder touches were all wrong...I think I will redo again next week sometime...
