30 Muscle Ups for time: 7:21


Front Squats have improved. After the open I think I maxed out at around 315-325. I've just finished a six week back squat cycle and I've also spent a lot of time working on my bottom position in the front squat. I've been able to keep my chest taller and my elbow higher when I'm at the bottom. 345 is pretty close to, if not a life time PR.

My bench has improved a little. after the open I maxed out at 285. During the summer when we finished a Westside cycle I was pushing 340. So its been a pretty significant drop off, but the capacity is there to push heavier weight. 

For the 30 muscle ups, 7:21 is big PR for me. First time that I've broken 8 minutes. The sets went 5,5,5,3,2 then I died. 10 singles from there.
