11/3 training Getups, swings, pullups, handstand pushups

Trying to keep the intensity and total work around 70% on this first week of a 4 week cycle. 
After a long break from pullups I am re-starting the fighter pullup program with the easier undergrip variation.  I love pullups but my left elbow has been bothering me for months and I put down exercises that force the arm bent under a heavy load, basicaslly pullups and farmer walks.  The elbow has been feeling decent recently so I figured I would experiment doing pullups without a full lockout.  I typically recommend full lockout on pullups but I feel like I could be pushing my luck.  I will just take it a day at a time, if it starts bothering me I can always put the exercise down.


Getups - 12kg x 2, l6 x 2, 24 x 5, 16 x 2 with press on each rep
Swings - 15 rounds on the minute, 4 power swings + 4 consecutive swings - all 32kg
Handstand pushups - 6 mats from head to floor - 5, 3,3,2,2, reps
Undergrip pullups 5,4,3,2,2, reps
