Got Muscle-ups!

WOD:

3 rounds for time:
800 meter run
10 muscle-ups (scaled to 3 muscle-ups)
100 Squats

Time 31:21 (3 muscle-ups per round)

I got my first 3 muscle-ups right before the work out and then did 3 each round, for a lifetime total of 12. I am really, really excited! I must have just needed a little more pulling strength to get up past the transition point, because I just flew up there the first couple of times. It got a lot harder doing 3 each round.

A real CrossFit milestone for me. Just got my handstand push-ups this month too. August 2010 was a good month for me.

Now on to ring handstand push-ups and pistols!

I ate authentic chicago deep dish pizza last night (I am visiting Chicago for a work thing) and it just destroyed my insides. It was really hard to get up this morning, let alone drag myself out to workout before the start of the conference today.

I can't wait to get back home and have less temptation to eat poorly and more oppurtunity to control what I eat.
