Jim February 11, 2008 at 10:02 am Breck, excellent job representing CrossFit Jenks on the main CF site. Did 1 pullup in the first minute, 2 pullups in the second minute, and so on. Made it eleven rounds (total of 66 pullups). Then did push presses as follows: 5 x 95 5 x 115 5 x 120 5 x 125 3 x 130 5 x 115 This was my first workout since 1/30 as I came down with the flu and have been trying to get back to full strength ever since.
