Sandbagged

Today was dynamic effort for bench. I did 8X3 with 145 lbs + chain.

I was slightly erratic but that was okay considering how little I bench.

I wanted to finish with a circuit with my friend Matt C. We joke that I am "twice as fit" as he is. So we came up with the following WOD:

Matt - 5 db snatches 35lbs/5 kipping pull ups
Brian - 10 db snatches 45lbs/10 strict pull ups
10 rounds

Matt smoked me and finished while I was still on round 7. I called the pull ups (I was doing singles by that point) and finished my snatches.
He is "5/7 as fit" as me. The beauty of measurable fitness .

Form suffers after rep 80

Pull ups are hard. More pull ups are harder.

Someone actually trying in the gym attracts attention
