New thoughts on the pull-up project

9-19-11
-hang-power cleans (6x10)
-roll-outs (5x10)

If I were limited to one workout this might be it, just 10 minutes.

9-18-11
-weighted chin-ups (40.8 kgs)

I struggled a bit trying to hang on more plates to the dip belt. It just got too unwieldy. I decided to back off the weight just a little and go for doubles instead of singles. Seven sets of doubles felt tougher than ten sets of singles.

9-16-11
-100 goblet squats
-circular pull-ups (7x10)

Circular pull-ups are not to be underestimated. I wonder if instead of going to heavier, conventional weighted pull-ups to achieve the OACU, I instead use moderately weighted circular pull-ups. Hmmnn. Better to start with weighted, off-set negs.
