Workout- "Bubblemaker's Revenge" 4 round for time:
7 Muscle Ups (preferably performed on a straight bar, though they can be performed on rings if you don't have a free-standing pullup bar available. Sub 4 pullups and dips for each muscle up if you are unable to do them)
The bar muscle ups took me a long time, my best was 4 consecutives. I think I could improve on my kipping technique though, cause I did some from dead hang. Especially the 7th sometimes took me 6 attemts :P
Pistols were done on a slight ramp.
That was done in 20 minutes. At least I didn't need a jump this time

Well i finally found a park by my apartment where i can do at least the pull/muscle-ups and pistols but no where good to run. I also have trouble with the muscle ups but when i couldn't get them dead hang i switched to swinging legs. nd i subbedin jump squats. I need a gym.

Yes you do. I did another workout from Ross' "Infinite Intensity." Excellent programming altogether, though it's hard to get used to such a cut-and-dry sequence after all of the Crossfit randomization. Expect a review of the book soon!

Warmup was a 1/2 mile jog up to the park to workout. However, I totally screwed up the subbing for this workout. I subbed pullups and bench dips for the muscle ups but didn't read carefully enough. I subbed 4 pullups and 8 bench dips per round not per muscle up. I knew it seemed kind of easy. Oh well. I also subbed butt to ankle squats for pistols. Ended up w/ 9:34 for all that.
Followed this workout with Wednesday's workout after about 10 minutes rest.

I may give this one another go Friday or Saturday seeing as how I screwed it up so royally. I just got the idea to try jumping muscle ups.
