121130

We pulled our weight and then some. Although that third rep got tough, we got it. We factored in body weight when we could and the night crew got an extra set of max pull-ups at the end just for kicks. Good job everyone.

Weighted Pull-ups  3-3-3-3-3
Derrick- (252) 40
Eric- (185) 50
Alice Anne- (125) 15
Richard- 30
David- (203) 20
John- (210) 100 + 18 max
Todd- (205) 70 + 21 max
Teresa- (163) 25 + 10 max
Tammy- 20 + 20 max
Sharon- 10
Tom- (185) 55 + 27 max

Good job everyone. Monster lifts John, and Teresa! There were several people working on pull-ups that did not load. Good job you guys. You are all closer than you think. Keep practicing. Also, don't worry- there will be plenty of opportunities... Superman, hollow, STOP! Good.

We love pull-ups at CFSF, and we get to practice them daily. Bar time is important. Practice the scapular elevation/depression while hanging from the neutral bars anytime you want to. Add SAM in if it's on the board of not, and remember a max bar hang at the end.

The U.S. Marine Corps recently incorporated pull-ups into the PT tests for both men AND women. Valued for it's functionality, and huge contribution to strength, the pull-up is an integral component of CrossFit. Better keep up Uncle Sam....
