time 18:14

And LOTS of practice on my pullups! 🙂


As Rx’ed:

G: 9:34
K: 10:35 Need to work on consecutive pull-ups to get this time down.


14:29 / green band for pull-ups / 37# kb


jp at Y as Rx’d: 11:03.
Able to go straight through on DB swings but not the pullups! Running is always tough after the first round!


14:27
40# dumbell, largest available.


Oops! Either color-blind or old age brain — blue band….


11:36 as Rx’d. New PR but a little slow on the pull ups today for some reason. Under 10 min next time.


11:28 in class as rx’d…

First time doing Helen….My first round was awesome everything seemed to be going well…round two was okay…by round 3 I was screwed…could barely run let alone do kettle bell swings and my pull-ups had to broken in 2’s….I know I could have reached a sub 10 min…just was not mentally prepared this time…however for my first time I am extremely pleased…great job to everyone in this mornings class….Grant if you can run a little faster you definitely will be sub 9 min…awesome job…
