Attempt #1:
Going into this workout I knew my wall balls were solid, my dus were clean, and I had never done a muscle up before. Thanks to a few muscle up progression videos on youtube, and a muscleup demonstration video by Chris Spealler, I was able to get my first ever muscle up in practice before the WOD!
I expected the bulk of the strategy to be with the wall balls. The double unders would take me about the same amount of time fresh or tired so I had to get the wall balls right. I decided that I wanted to break my wall balls up into 30, 15,15,15…. I knew that I could save some energy by resting like Kristan Clever holding the ball against the wall. My strategy went very smoothly until about 90 reps in. I had to cut back to sets of 10. I finally finished the wall balls at about 8’30”. I walked over to the jump rope and started my double unders. My quads were on FIRE! It was difficult just to get off the ground. I managed to finish all 90 double unders in about 3 minutes, leaving me around half a minute to attempt a muscle up. I would have loved to have gotten 241 reps. I made two solid attempts at a muscle up but just didn’t have the strength to hold it together.
Looking back on 13.3 I am very happy with a score of 240, and I know that by next year I will definitely be able to push to 241 and beyond.
Attempt #2: …wait are you kidding? Ain’t nobody got time for that.
