img_9453“For over a thousand years Roman conquerors returning from the wars enjoyed the honor of triumph, a tumultuous parade. In the procession came trumpeteers, musicians and strange animals from conquered territories, together with carts laden with treasure and captured armaments. The conquerors rode in a triumphal chariot, the dazed prisoners walking in chains before him. Sometimes his children robed in white stood with him in the chariot or rode the trace horses. A slave stood behind the conqueror holding a golden crown and whispering in his ear a warning: that all glory is fleeting.”–General George Patton

“A human being should be able to change a diaper,
plan an invasion,
butcher a hog, conn a ship,
design a building, write a sonnet,
balance accounts, build a wall,
set a bone, comfort the dying,
take orders, give orders,
cooperate, act alone,
solve equations,
analyze a new problem,
pitch manure, program a computer,
cook a tasty meal,
fight efficiently,
and die gallantly…
Specialization is for insects.”

Skill Development: Pull-up Ascension Ladder
Every minute on the minute for 10 minutes execute the prescribed number of Pull-ups. On the first minute perform 2 reps, on the second minute perform four reps, on the third minute perform six reps… Continue climbing up the ladder in this manner until the number of Pull-ups can not longer be completed in the one minute window of time allotted.

Notes: Reps today may be assigned as deadhang for the first ascent, if there are minutes left on the clock after failing a round, athletes should begin again from the bottom the ladder and continue for as long as possible or time expires. Score will be highest rep load completed as well as total reps completed (volume scoring incentive for those making multiple ascents). Scale as necessary to band assisted Pull-ups.
