You know how you kind of feel weak doing pull-ups? Well we decided to add our weight vests/rucks to the 5am pull-up session… #humbled. 3 HIM’s worked on their 2 rep max for weighted pull-ups with the following circuit. Note – we could not figure out why the Lexicon hasn’t coined something neat for pull-ups… we have Merkins, why not Perkins? I dunno…
- 5 minute warm-up
- EMOM – 5 sets
- 3 perfect pull-ups
- Plank Position rest
- V-legged pull-ups (Legs straight in a V perpendicular to body while you pull-up)
- 10 rotating sets, 1 rep each time
- Assisted Pull-ups
- 5 sets, 6 reps each
- The partner assist really helped us add some reps as our back and bis were failing
- Burnout/Finisher
- Burpee into Jump Pull-up
- 15 Reps
Props to Big Rig for motivating YHC and Posh to do this Morning Wood most weeks. I think we’re getting stronger? LFGO!
