Use 25, 45, or 65 pound dumbbells. Use one of the C&J dumbbells as the load for the weighted pull-ups. Placing the dumbbell between legs crossed at the ankles works very well.

Reps as Rx’d

Wasn’t sure how this one would pan out. I can still feel the pull in my right pec on pull-ups. Didn’t know if I would be able to do the weight as Rx’d on the pull-ups, but I made it through. I was doing singles after round two. I used a weight belt/chain and plates instead of putting the DB between my legs. Lost some time trying to hoist the belt up and put it on. Got tangled up a few times, but I needed the recovery…at least this way it was constructive recovery rather than just standing there staring at the weight. I may be paying for it tomorrow…
