My first official blog!

This is basically going to be my workout log. If you care to look at it, feel free. I am big into kettlebells, and started crossfit style training today. I felt that I needed to focus more on power than on strength and to up my endurance. My goal is to do multiple muscleups, but I have a long way to go.

warm up: circuit style
24kg TGU:5/5
ring dips (assisted):5x3

21-15-9 - circuit style
24kg thrusters:(6 dbls., 6/6, 2/1)(5/5, 5/5, 3/3)messed up the count!(3/3, 3/3, 3/3)
ring pullups:(6, 6, 5, 3, 1)(5, 3, 3, 4)(4, 3, 2)

27 min. total.
Very winded! Trying to get the hang of kipping pullups.

After some fooling around today, I have figured out how to use Jump Stretch bands to aid with the high rep pullups and dips.
