Fired up from watching the Games? Of course! We want you to continue to pace your work for safety-with-form but here's a cool article on training mind set that you can work into your skills.
Get started with a beautiful monster:
Nasty Girls
3 rounds for time of:
50 Squats
7 Muscle-ups
135 pound Hang power cleans, 10 reps
Relevant quote from the article for training and nutrition, "...life is nothing but a habit. Get to work."
16:24 w/pull ups, skinny red band ring dips & 95# cleans. Whoa Nelly....Suzie is right, its much heavier from the hang! They weren't pretty, but I did them thanks to Coach Denise yelling at me to do em quicker so I didn't burn out and thanks to Mavany for giving me a PR sticker :) Super nice San Diego Ken & Michelle! Masochistically....can't wait for tomorrow's wod. Eeeek!

I tried 95# once and thought' "oh holy hell!!" From the floor it was ok; from the hang it felt really heavy. So I wussed out and dropped down to 65#, which was too easy.
I used the blue band for my pull ups and the green band for my dips. Time was 14:08(?)
