Skill workout today was 1RM floor press. It's like a bench press, but you lay on the floor. After that, we were to drop the weight 10% and do as many reps as we could. I didn't quite do that, but whatever.
1RM @ 215 lbs
17 reps @ 165 lbs
This amuses me because I am not in the least bit surprised by this outcome. Having not had access to heavy weights but ample access to light weights for 9 months, the results are perfectly consistent with how I have been training.
WOD:
15m AMRAP
2 muscle-ups
4 HSPU
8 KBS @ 62 lbs
My modded WOD:
15m AMRAP
2x - 3 pull-up + 3 ring dips
4 HSPU
8 KBS @ 53 lbs
Result: 7
I'm pretty happy with my performance today. As usual, the pull-ups got tough for me, but doing only 3 at a time definitely made it doable. The dips were very easy. I was very proud of my hand-stand push-ups today, as I was able to perform them without adding any assistance. They got pretty rough toward the end, but I refused to get help. The kettle bell swings started out pretty easy, but it's shocking how hard it feels at the end. I wonder if I should have done it Rx'd, but it's probably more prudent to take it slow.
How do you get the bar in hand? Does someone hand it to you? I'm assuming floor press is easier than bench given reduced range of motion?
