Saturday July 26, 2008

21-15-9 of:
  • Overhead squat (M-95#/W-65#)
  • New pull-up standard
7:54

Pulling my chest up above the bar and making sure it actually touches that many times was difficult. I got called out for quite a few that didn't count. I'm glad Kelly was watching. I found that taking my standard grip, while not particularly narrow, was too close to allow the rotation to get above the bar. Too wide though, and I don't have the pulling strength. 'Unhooking' my shoulder capsule and pulling it back, similar to a heavy deadlift, is what has to happen to get my sternum to contact the bar.
