Push ups as per GD day 14

Push ups as per GD day 14

A harder level and so back to 2 reps as per GD - but I’m not sure what kind of jump to harder level I should go for?

Pin 5 - which is 3 inch lower than pin 6.
EMOM 2 reps for 20 mins

Completed all reps with relative ease. So is this pin 5 too easy? Should I go to pin 4 (another 3 inch lower - all the pins in my rack are 3 inch apart).

I’m wondering about doing this push up program twice a week now as I’ve acclimatised to the volume to see if I can speed things up a bit.
Pin 6 doing it only once a week with other wods has taken me just over 13 weeks with no missed reps so at that pace I wont reach the floor for 91 weeks I know I can be impatient but that surely is a long time to do proper full push ups????
So even twice a week that’s 45 weeks!!!

May be pin 4, then pin 2, then 1 as I’m sure it will be getting tough by then and the smaller jumps will be more beneficial???
Or keep the 3 inch / 1 pin increments and do it more frequently ie 4 times a week regardless of other wods??
I could be over thinking it, I could be just being impatient or I’m just in the wood here??
Thoughts any one please???

3 x 8:00 Cindy’s Bx Ram 2012-09-04

Serious DOMS from Sunday - not had that much pain in a long time and not really sure why as 24 thrusters should not have caused the pain but much better today although not gone completely so see how we go.

Great wod - got scaling spot on as although legs felt tired in round 3 no actual muscle failure or bar staring through out = really pleased with that so up the reps or level of difficulty/scaling next time
