July 30, 2008 Workout of the Day

I told everyone today would involve pull-ups. I always keep my word. Enjoy!

Ten rounds for time of:
3 Weighted Pull-ups (45 lbs) (Weight will be modified accordingly)
5 Strict Pullups
7 Kipping Pullups

"For weighted pull-ups place a 45 pound dumbbell between the legs above crossed ankles and jettison the dumbbell after third rep and continue with strict pull-ups and then the kipping pull-ups. Coming off the bar or going to ground constitutes termination of a set. "

This workout is from Crossfit HQ and was posted in 2006. I do not expect everyone to do this workout as it is listed. Modified versions will be made.
