Muscle up
At last I managed to do a muscle up on a bar!!
After trying for ever to get a muscle up, all it took was one of my friends to say " You need to do it like this" and he done one. Then I tried and got it too!!
All night at work I was doingthem and doing them until the blisters on my hands wouldnt let me do any more.

Snatch and OHS
Workout of the Day
Fifteen rounds of:
Power snatch followed immediately by five overhead squats.
Start light and add weight. Post loads to comments.
Started at 30kg for the snatch and worked up to 42.5kg
OHS started at 20kg and moved up to 35kg
One of the Smith Machines we have at work is broken and we are now just using it as a pull ups station. Its a bit small for me but it is now so much better with the mechanism of the smith machine out of the way. I tried to do a bar muscle up on it and managed to get one elbow over the bar so I am determined to do one really soon.
