    Hey that’s me!

    20 max rep back sqt: 115# think i could have gone heavier

    metcon: RX +
    10 HSPUs for first 4 rds
    8 HSPUs for last 6

  3. Daniel says:

    My shoulder is still pissed off.

    Sub Front squats @ 135 for the 5 HSPU. Those hurt plenty for me.

    Great WOD!

  4. Jeff says:

    Well, I did 20 back squats @145# that felt pretty easy, so I did 20 more @175#. Not so easy.

    All the rowers were taken for the MetCon, so I used the Airdyne for the first time. My new least favorite thing! Yay!

  5. Amyl says:

    Back squats 125- should have gone heavier
    Metcon was funish:) 10 hspu each round and the run was a struggle each time.

    8:30 was a fun class today

  6. Cassi says:

    After a whole week off being sick, it was great to be back!

    Back squats @ 125# – still having shoulder mobility issues holding the bar

    WOD: rowing & HSPU RX – I sure do love HSPUs and it felt good to get back at it! Nice job with the 10 reps each round Amy & Jess!!

  7. Sue Collins says:

    back squats – 115#
    (thanks, Daniel, for urging me to put on more weight after I did the 105#)

    run/hspu (piked, off the box).
    YES – great 8:30 today.

    • Sue Collins says:

      I mean, HSPU – on my knees, off the box.
      This was a gasser, “a goose,” as Coach David promised.
      I barely made it in from the 200yd run before hearing, 3 -2-1 GO for the HSPU. yowza.

  8. Terri says:

    75# BS for 20 reps, many of which weren’t quite low enough.

    Scaled the sprints to 100-ish meters this time so I could actually sprint. It was a much better workout for me this way. And fun!!

  9. BryanM. says:

    Back after a week.

    165 on BS. Should have gone a “little” heavier.

    METCON – managed to do all rowing and 8 of 10 HSPU (all strict since still working on kip). 43 total HSPUs

  10. Ryan G. says:

    20RM back squats at 165#. I should have trusted Emily and gone heavier.

    OTM20 with push-ups piked off the box.

  11. Meeks says:

    Kelly encouraged me to run(one of my goats) so did dumpster and back then box push-ups. Definitely will feel this one tomorrow.

    For squats did 20 reps at 45 then 65 then 85.

  12. Joy says:

    Squats 20x 60#
    Ran to dumpster & did pike push ups from floor.

  13. Brittany Best says:

    135 back squat
    and stuck to the 5 HSPU and run!
    not fun to me…..

    • Terri says:

      p.s. I did pikes from a box, which do not suck.

      p.p.s. Welcome back to health, Joy and Cassi! And just plain welcome back to Bryan!
