The deadlifts I'm fine with. HSPU not so much, but it's getting better. I was going to attempt it today but woke up late and needed to get ready for a night out with my better half. I've been working nights the last 2 weeks so it's nice to be back to a normal schedule.
I will say, I went to Anytime fitness this morning & attempted a few HSPU. They weren't pretty but I was able to string together 2-3 at a time. Between these & doubles, the Open has really helped me improve on movements I have been having a difficult time grasping. I'll take a stab at 18.4 either tmrw or Monday

96 reps RX. Not pumped about ir but oh well.

Scaled felt really easy until the 9 pushups. I started way too fast. Added the 50lbs for the second 21 and hit a wall. Had to break it up in 4 pieces. Only made it through 1 bear crawl. I would be disappointed but for the fact that I was never going to make it through the 15 DLs anyway. I really need to work on DL.

This one was very deceptive. My PR on DL is 455#, but when I got to 315# on that DL it felt like it was 405#.

I think I went out a little too hot. Oh

Brute Strength’s gymnastic coach recommends strict HSPUs if you can manage it during the Diane portion to limit your no reps on the new standard.
I’ll be going that route.

Nicks gymnastics are sick. He flew through it last night, it was impressive
Posted on 3/17/18 at 3:44 pm to GEAUXLPOST
He said he had no problem with unbroken strict HSPUs but his max strict is 40+.
I’ll break up the round of 21 and 15 1x each so I don’t get to failure.

He didn't have a problem at all with them. I didn't get to watch because I was struggling through the workout at the same time, but he was cruising.
Good Luck

Nick who? Sorrel?

Yeah. I was going back and forth with him on IG.

Great guy. Worked him the last few years at the hospital.
He’s badass with the gymnastics.

Just followed up the flu diagnosis with strep throat on Sunday.
First missed open workout since 14.1. I’m kinda sad!

That 315 felt like 500. It hit me hard.

Did scaled. Made it through second bear crawl. Just went ahead and finished the workout. Damn that was rough!
Posted on 3/19/18 at 12:04 pm to tke_swamprat
I scaled and finished with one second remaining. Should have broken up the first round of deadlifts even though it wasn't feeling heavy yet. May or may not have had to redo a couple no-rep push ups 
Posted on 3/19/18 at 12:14 pm to Pitch To Johnny
The new standard sucked. No reps piled up on HSPUs where I was a 1/4” from the line and didn’t finish Diane.
Deadlifts were easy.
