Split Jerks and Ring Dips

On Wednesday I did a max effort day:
Split Jerk 7 sets of 1

I hate the sets of 1 so I always do a couple of extra, mostly in the first few sets, to get warmed up for the heavy stuff. I think I constantly sell myself short by not warming up properly.

I pr'ed at 205#s which was nice but I still have a ways to go. the good thing was that it didn't really feel that heavy so with some practice I think I am strong enough to do more weight. Its all about technique with these things.

During the class I was giving the instructor Nathan a hard time about his sore back and that he needed to suck it up. He called me out so, knowing full well that it was a bad idea I did the workout he had done earlier that day. It was the WOD from the main site.

45 double unders
45 squat cleans @ 135#s
45 ring dips
45 double unders

It sucked. I am pitiful at the ring dips but that was one of the reasons I did the WOD. I really want to start to flush out my weaknesses and ring dips is a huge weakness.

My time was 21:38. Of the people who had done it that day I was the slowest and the quality of my dips were suspect but I felt good on the cleans and the double unders.
