Today's effort. Throwing caution and elbow issues to the wind, circumstances meant I'd try some more pull-ups and chin-up alternating combinations.
EMOM X 30.
Pull-ups/Chin-ups alternating all the way through to the end.
However, there was one dud pull-up in the middle where I could only manage 3/4 so scored 0. And the final one I had the luxury of allowing a considerable portion of the final min. to elapse before completing it (I knew I only had one chance to attempt it so it had to count!).
Looking at the chin-up numbers, they're a marked improvement on previous versions of this exercise. But, then it dawned on me that when you're alternatively knocking out 1 pull-up in a set, you've got more recovery time in that minute so it then flatters the next set of chin-up reps.
Anyway: the total was:
15 pull-ups (1x2, 1x0 (3/4) and 13x1)
15 chin-ups (5x5, 7x4 and 3x3)
