Opens WOD 14.4 second attempt

Not too many adjustments here. Just get through the cleans as fast as possible and make more muscle ups!!!

Row was again somewhere in the 2:30-2:40 range. Just tried to relax and breathe. Toes to bars went about the same as last time except I went even faster on the singles. Wall balls were broken into just 2 sets this time - 25 and 15. Cleans were tough but I felt like I got through them faster than last time. I finished them at the 9:55 mark!!! This was an unbelievable tiebreaker time and to be honest, I should have been able to finish 20 muscle ups with this amount of time left!! I ended up doing almost the same as last time, just one more rep. But that one rep was sooo worth it! I had one near miss also which again, was costly.

This workout taught me one thing. I am good at muscle-ups in the sense that I have the strength to do them strict. However; I am so inefficient at doing them in workouts like this. I watched others from my gym do them with a huge Superman style kip that looked just effortless. Meanwhile, every rep for me I had to struggle through it like I was giving birth. This is something I definitely need to polish up technique-wise.
