- KB Swings @ 1.5 pood
So tonight I got my 2nd, 3rd, … 8th muscle-up! I hadn’t tried one since I got my first, so I was extremely happy. During the goals seminar last weekend, I thought about putting “getting my 2nd muscle-up” as a seven day goal. But I think now want to do something more like “get three consecutive muscle-ups without letting go of the rings” as month long goal.
I did 2 muscle-ups before the workout in the warm-up, and then about 6 during the workout. Most of the time I’d get the first one, but not second. After a two rounds of attempts without getting any, I moved to the jumping sub. I practiced some HSPUs during the warm-up, but still can’t really get them consistently or at fast rate, so I stuck with the sub off the box the entire time. For the KB Swings, I did try 2 pood for 1 round and still have issue… between not being able to control it and feeling it slowly slip out of my hands, I went back to the 1.5 pood.
