Elizabeth (scaled)

I found this awesome site on push-ups, the Art of Manliness, catchy:). I just love push-ups. It's something everyone can do (easily scaled) and they are fun. Progress is quickly measured as well, which I love.

Warm-Up:
Burgener w/u
2 sets of 5 x 75# deadlifts
5 x 1-band pull-ups
5 KTAs

Elizabeth (scaled):
55# HP Cleans, 21-15-9 15-12-9
Ring dips (2 bands), 15-12-9

Time: 6:04

I don't get where my strength has gone?! It's just disappeared. I guess that's what taking a few months off will do. Back to square one!

Last time I did this, I only did 45#'s, but I did them all unbroken and the rip dips were solid 1-banders (plus I did the full 21-15-9 on the HPC). This time the first 15 HPC were split and all the ring dips were incredibly shaky.

Don't fret on feeling week...It will come back I bet within a few weeks of hitting it hardcore again. Just keep at it and you will be ripping the ring dips again.
