I haven’t done strict pullups in ages! I always do pullups using a grip with my hands supinated. CFFB programs both types(supinated and pronated) so I gotta get used to em. The metcon went really well for me today. The deadlifts were heavy but I got rounds 1 and 2 unbroken and after that in singles with only a short stance and grip reset inbetween reps. I don’t have bumper plates or padded flooring so all my deadlifts are done dead stop style, no bouncing or dropping. This costs me time and energy im sure but in competing with myself it works just fine! Overall a great workout and im loving the CFFB program!
Back Squat: 5 x 225, 5 x 245, 5 x 255 (maybe a PR? not sure gotta go check old records)

legs are dead now. stoked about my pull-up PR, gonna start testing this first thing every monday (didn’t work yesterday so today is my monday) when i’m fresh off 1 or 2 rest days. much more rewarding than judging my progress based on how they go in the middle of met-cons.

* I started my 1st attempt at a train much earlier in the day and my mind wasn’t in the right place…I couldn’t even pull 380lbs off the floor for a single and everything up to that point felt really heavy….I stopped and walked away..I came back about 4hours later for a 2nd attempt and stripped the bar and started with 155lbs and worked my way back up and got my mind and focus on track…It is really amazing how your mind controls the body SOOO much…If the mind says NO…the body wont GO!
Anyway….I am happy that I came back and had some PRs…AND most importantly that I came back to it and finished my train.
