Back at Black Box 1.0, Sarah and Sunny did modified L-pull-ups with rings and a plyo box. (If you’re doing these, be sure to keep your torso completely vertical so that you make an “L” at the top of the pull-up.)

And if you’re going for true L-pull-ups, you may find (as I do) that underhand is the way to go:

    Dumbbell snatches rarely come up in crossfit WODs so don’t feel bad if you’ve never done them before.
    And if you’re afraid of L pull-ups, don’t be–there are scaled versions to make them easier (not EASY, though).

    If you are unable to do L-Pull ups, try tuck sit pull ups. If you are unable to do tuck sit or L sit pull ups, do the required number of pull ups and then practice L sits after the workouts. If you are unable to do pull ups do jumping or beginner pull ups and then practice your L sit after the workout.

    I’ve been doing “stuff” with what little equipment I’ve had, as I’ve been unable to make it in since Wednesday.
    Thursday:
    Around 5k on a Vermont dirt road, with a random black lab/great dane hybrid tagging/splashing along, followed by 10 rounds of tabata sprints. Totally untimed.
    Saturday:
    Annie, as rx’ed: 22:17
    Slower than last time. Rope was a weird length, so the double-unders were super choppy.
    Today:
    3 rounds
    21 KB snatches, right hand
    21 KB snatches, left hand
    400 meter run
    18:09, with 8kg KB.
