Make me a Man, Man Maker

So I totally got raped on this :(. I did the full weight, knowing that I'd probably end up slow as crap. As fun as it is to try and keep up with Simon, I'm just not there yet. I'll give results first, then analysis, etc:

45 LB (20.45KG) Manmakers x 30 reps

18:50
Avg Heart Rate: 188 BPM

**I am not happy with this time. I am not impressed with it. A few times during the exercise, I felt I could push harder, but I'm not sure how 195 sustained heart rate would work...

I tried very hard during the exercise to have controlled 1 arm rows without rotating my body too much. It was a bit hard, but not too bad to get the hang of.


Floor Wipers / Pullups
9/5
5/5
5/5


On the floor wipers, I notice that going to the right side, I am not as flexible or something in the lower back/hips. I'll have to figure out what that is and correct it...


Pretty tough workout. My energy level was there to do the work, but it seemed the hardcore blood/oxygen need is what slowed me down (cardio). Looks like that's the chink in my armor at this point.

The nice thing is, i can feel every day that I am getting stronger, and am convinced that these are some of the best workouts I've ever done :)

Man makers gave me the looks.

So,

Today I started out with OHS. First time I've ever really done heavy OHS. The technique was failing quite hard. After 75 kg I had to drop the weight, and it felt like more technique training was what would get me to use heavier weights, not another try.

I had been planning on doing 30xman makers for time, so I attacked it with all that I could muster. After 12 minutes and 27 seconds on the 20 kg dumbbells I lay sweaty on the floor, chipping for air.

As if that wasn't enough, I continued with:
10x floorwipers (@50kg)
5x pull-ups.

5 rounds. No time-taking, I just wanted to get better on floor wipers and make sure my kipping technique holds out. It went fairly well I think.

That's it for today!
