Issues with Grips

Partner Chipper

  • 60 cal BikeErg (12/8)
  • 50 Bar MU / Pull-ups (2×5 MU, 3×5 C2B Pull-ups)
  • 100 DB Box Step-ups (24″, 2×25# DBs)

  • 100 Burpees
  • 100 DB Hang C&J (25# DBs)
  • 60 DB Push-ups
  • 128 cal Row (20/12)

I’m having problems with grips on the bar on our outdoor rig, specifically for bar muscle-ups. I had to drop after four in my second set because they were riding up way too much and killing my wrists. I noticed an old blister ripped open, so switched to kipping chest-to-bar pull-ups the rest of the sets. The step-ups really got me in this. Felt good on the burpees and was doing shoulder press for my jerks with those light dumbbells.

We finished in 35:57.

Sunday at 3

Much later for us on a Sunday, around 3pm, but we had a busy morning.

  • 12/8 cal SkiErg
  • 12 Double Handle Pull to Chest (60#)
  • 15/10 cal BikeErg
  • 50m Farmer Carry (60#)

Sort of a partner workout, with the 2nd person waiting until you were off the machine. Then if you got your movement reps done you had a brief wait until your partner finished their machine. I went first and B finished at 22:35.

Midline

3 Rounds

  • 26 Swimmer Crunches
  • 26 Crunches

We did 5×12/8 on the bike, 4×10 for floor press, lunges, wings, and shoulder presses. I think we went 3-3-3-2-2-2-2-3 pull-ups, and 20-20-10 with the crunches while the partner held a plank. It took 31-32:00 and then a neighbor interrupted. Was going to do the pull-ups and be done.
