Muscle Up - Dead Lift - Jump

Strength:
Off again today as I am still babying the knee.

WOD:
5-4-3-2-1
Muscle Ups
225 Dead Lift
36 inch Box Jump

Cash Out:
5 rounds
30 seconds GHD Situps
30 seconds Back Extensions
- no break between rounds -

Results:
Finished 17:00.  The Muscle Ups killed me.  I knew that going in, but I decided to go for it anyway.  Muscle ups are weak movement for me.  Surprisingly, I did 4 continuous to start out, and all of a sudden I thought I was going to destroy this WOD.  That was almost one third of the muscle ups.  After the first 4, I completely lost it, and failed at least 10 times before I got that last one.  That was aweful, my confidence was shot, and I started completely overthinking it..  The round of 4 was horrendous, it I probably failed 20 more times just getting the 4.  I did a little better on the 3-2-1 rounds, I still missed, but I may have only missed about 6 times for the last 6 reps, not perfect, but better.  I think I faired better mainly because I REALLY took a long break between attempts.

The dead lifts and the box jumps were cake.  This could have been harder if we did 275 for the Dead lift.

Cash Out:
I finished with about 60 GHD situps, and about 80 or so back extensions.  I actually lost count, so those are guesses.  I can't wait to see how my core feels tomorrow.  Fun stuff.
