Puppies: Pullup Ladder

Beginner Pullups - 13 Rounds + 10 (last 6 Rounds broken into sets of 6, then 5, then 4… ugh).

It is my goal to do real pullups for the first time since I was in 5th grade (I think—it’s been a long time anyway).  I know that I’m getting stronger, but that will be a milestone for sure.

Warm-up - 3x(500m easy row + CFWU)
Cool-down - Stretching

“Death By Pullup”

With a continuously running clock do one pull-up the first minute, two pull-ups the second minute, three pull-ups the third minute… continuing as long as you are able.
Use as many sets each minute as needed.

9 rounds and 7 pullups in the 10 round for a totatl of 52.  First time with this workout and I think that it is my new favorite!

“Death By Pullup”

15 Minutes-

Finished out to 20 min with jumping pullups

Cash out: 2 sets of shoulder press/behind neck with bar

Are you guys recovered from Linda? I couldn’t get up this morning! My lower back is killing me. I’m waiting till later today to do the pullups but damn, Linda messed me up! That should be a WOD before the rest day.

My low back is a little sore, but not too bad.  I foam rollered quite a bit after Linda to try and help with that.  First time for me doing 55 deadlifts at bodyweight.  Hopefully next time I can as RX’d.

wow took a hiatus from this board. Was on CFSB for a while and burnt out. Now I am on Main Site/Hybrid

Death by Pullups

11 complete sets. finished the 11th on the 1 minute mark, no more gas

Ran a little over a mile today at the local High School track.  Nice and comfy track.  Took me under 15 minutes, which is good for me.  Had to quit as the band was coming in to practice.  Maybe I should have stayed as part of the entertainment.
