\nFour weeks down one to go… I can’t hardly believe the open is over after Friday! I’ve loved the process this year even if the workouts are totally random. Sometimes I wonder what HQ is thinking. I mean scaled this week had bear crawls?! That’s not a workout that’s a warmup drill! Anyway, embrace the process right?<\/p>\n

Without further adieu…<\/p>\n

THE WORKOUT<\/b>
\n
<\/b>
\nFor time:<\/p>\n

21-15-9
\ndeadlifts, 155 lb. + handstand push-ups<\/p>\n

then…<\/p>\n

21 deadlifts, 205 lb.
\n50-ft. handstand walk
\n15 deadlifts, 205 lb.
\n50-ft. handstand walk
\n9 deadlifts, 205 lb.
\n50-ft. handstand walk<\/p>\n

Time cap: 9 min.
\n
<\/b>
\nINITIAL THOUGHTS<\/b>
\nYup, my neck and back are going to HATE me. Deadlifts are not my jam and I’ve said it before — no one should ever do heavy deadlifts for time. With that said, the new HSPU standard didn’t really phase me. You just do what you can do.<\/p>\n

MY PERFORMANCE<\/b>
\nLast year the 55 rep DL workout KILLED my back. Although overall I’m in much better shape this year, I was very conservative in this workout. While I could have gone with big sets on the deadlifts I did all singles. Yup, that’s right, ALL singles. Then busted out big sets on the HSPUs. But guess what? My back didn’t lock up on me and I feel great. I finished with 79 reps… not my best performance. Oh, and the new HSPU standard didn’t bother me at all. I made sure my HSPUs were slow and controlled so I made each rep.
\n
<\/b>
\nFINAL THOUGHTS<\/b>
\nWhile I know I could have pushed harder and logged more reps I’m not advancing this year so why kill my back and be out for weeks?! Yes, I want to push, but I’m also in this fitness thing for the long haul. However, even with an extremely low score, I’m still sitting top 10% worldwide in my age group. This is HUGE. Last year I finished top 25%!<\/p>\n

Did you do 18.4? Love it or hate it? Any predictions for 18.5?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
