Dumbbell Bear

I didn't feel like messing around with my rings the last two days. I can't do muscle-ups so its either 150 pull-ups/150 dips (yuck) or working with jumping muscle-ups. I think I'll do those early tomorrow morning when no one's around. Plus, i think I'm going to switch to a 5 in a row Crossfit schedule Monday through Friday. So it'll be good to be two days behind. I'll take one or both of the weekend days off, depending on how I feel. I'll find something to work on during the weekend if I'm not resting, like handstands, or planches or something like that, skill work, etc.

But today I decided to do the Dumbbell Bear, 5 reps each of dumbbell deadlift, power clean, and thruster every minute for 20 minutes. I used the 35 pound dumbbells. I made it through about 15 minutes before I had to take a little extra rest to finish the last 5 rounds.

Then I did 3 rounds of weighted pull-ups/dips with 25 pounds. I managed 3 reps of pull-ups and 5 reps of dips each round. So, 9 pull-ups and 15 dips.
