Cindy

So today we were supposed to do a combo of Grace and Cindy. I thought about doing the weighted part but I had to be honest with myself: if I could still tell my back wasn't right just standing (and I could) then I wasn't ready for heavy clean and jerks. So I did just a straight up Cindy today instead. After searching the blog, I think this is the first time I've ever done a straight up, regular Cindy. Sure I've done weighted Cindys and Cindy getting stronger, but never just plain ol' Cindy:

AMRAP 20 min
5 pull ups
10 push ups
15 squats

I just barely got in 13 rounds. My shoulders weren't so hot from yesterday's wod with was pull up intensive (did either 80 or 100 pu's). My grip strength is def my weakest link. My hands are the first to go, so I need to work on that somehow, maybe get one of those squeezers? The butterfly kip is really starting to come along, partially because I found a great video clip teaching it by Speiler:


After the wod I got a chance to teach the butterfly kip to someone. She said mine looked so smooth she wanted to be able to do it as well. I seemed to be successful because after the fifth try or so she started to get the hang of it. A good morning indeed.
