PR: Double-Unders
My personal record for consecutive double-unders was set a few months ago: 67. I've gotten halfway reliable at doing sets of 50, by which I mean I can do them about half the time; 50 is about as many as I expect to need to do in a WOD. Perhaps I'll see if I can get to 100 in a row. I don't think I'll try to go beyond that.
PR: Handstand Walk
Earlier this week, I set a new personal record for handstand walking: 83 feet. I hope to reach 100 feet sometime this year.

PR: Pull-Up/Wallball WOD
Last Monday, October 1, CrossFit Diesel repeated this unnamed WOD:
I set a new personal record of 8:40. That's almost 5 minutes faster than my previous best of 13:25.
- For minimum time, peform 21-, 18-, 15-, 12-, 9-, 6-, and 3-rep rounds of
- Pull-Up
- Wallball
I set a new personal record of 8:40. That's almost 5 minutes faster than my previous best of 13:25.
PR: Push Press
Lacking a post to the contrary and being too lazy to dig through my handwritten records, I'm going to assume my push presses today constituted personal records:
- Push press, 4 reps: 165 lb.
- Push press, 5 reps: 160 lb.

PR: Clean and Jerk, Clean Only
New personal records set September 22:
Since I'm skill-limited rather than strength- or power-limited on the clean and the jerk, I find ramping up in very small steps (2.5 lb) to be very helpful.
- Clean and jerk: 195 lb. (A 2.5-lb improvement.)
- Clean: 200 lb (A 7.5-lb improvement.)
Since I'm skill-limited rather than strength- or power-limited on the clean and the jerk, I find ramping up in very small steps (2.5 lb) to be very helpful.

* 30 clean and jerks at 135 lb.
