4 sets - rest 2 min b/t sets:
15 unbroken chin ups
75 double unders
15 unbroken chin ups

Part I

60%1RM used 40kg
50%1RM used 35kg

2.36/4.36/?/DNF

Had to break down 2nd snatch from 2nd set onwards. Shut down on last set as lower back was starting to give referred pain to my thigh. Felt disappointed on this one as only reason stopping me was low back pain.

Part II

3.06/3.11/3.40/2.54, all CU unbroken

Notes: Still having some achilles tendon issues so had to sub box steps (40) for DUs on rounds 2 and 4. Starting to feel strong on chin-ups.

All in all, a very tough day and brought up my two re-current injuries. Will give my calf few weeks of rest from skipping and running now, I think and focus on icing and re-hab.
