I will not gloat because this never happens....but I beat him. I beat Patrick in today's workout. There is no hope of this EVER if the workout includes lots of upper body work, especially pull-ups. Patrick can kip and crank them out....while I struggle through one...at...a...time. In only two months, Patrick has gotten very strong. I continue to improve, I guess. But today, due to the continual pep-talk of our trainer, I pulled it off. The man went so far as to happily grab the garbage can when I mentioned puking!

3 rounds: 20 sumo deadlift high pulls (44 lbs), 20 burpees, 20 sledgehammer swings (each side).

Patrick finished a mere 5 seconds behind me.
