Sharp shooter

That was some sharp shootin’, Tex. Now get back to the bar.

Yesterday we spent some time working on our gymnastics movements, when we went as fast as could through Chest-to-Bar Pull Ups, Ring Dips, and Pistols in the WOD.

The workout required that the athlete complete 10, 9, 8 – all the way down to one of the three movements as fast as their legs could carry them. Unfortunately though, the Pistols made those legs move a bit slower than most intended through the WOD as the movement Pistol requires a great deal of balance and flexibility.

What was great though was not only was everyone able to get a good dose of Pistol practice, but two people were able to go through their first-ever prescribed Pistol workout. Congratulations to Dave Marshall and to Jenn, and great work to everyone!
