Meh today was just okay. The overhead squats actually went pretty well, the tempo was definitely tough but today was actually the best my OHS have felt in a long time so I was happy about that. I almost had the fourth rep at 135 but I tipped forward coming out of the bottom and lost it. That tempo is no joke but overall these felt really solid today. 

I was pretty sad about not being able to do the sets of max unbroken muscle ups, (maybe I can do this another time when my hand isn't shredded?) I probably could have hit a PR on these today. Oh well, another time. I decided to work on strict muscle ups instead, and it did not go so well. My first four reps weren't very close, Stephen said I was pulling too slowly and not being aggressive enough turning over. The 5th attempt was probably the closest I've ever been but I still felt like my hands were in a weird position and I couldn't turn over. I am going to watch some progression videos because it's really bothering me that I can't do this. I'm making it my goal to get a strict muscle up by the end of the month, DAMMIT. Nobody makes me bleed my own blood! NOBODY.

The row sprints felt very terrible, as expected. I should have stretched my legs more before I did this, they were really tight the entire time. After this was over I was bummed out because I thought I did worse than the last time I tested this, but it turns out I actually improved. I tested this in October and my numbers were 154, 145, 140 and 139. Today they were 159, 149, 143, and 140. So not a huge improvement, but still better than last time. 

I was only able to complete 2 rounds of the NFT stuff before I had to rush out and coach class. I was definitely not recovered enough from the row sprints while I was doing this, I thought I was going to puke during the reverse hypers.
