I'll probably do this work out again on Monday. I have a Ro vs Boz style one on one competition with a friend at the gym and I beat him by one HSPU which evens the score at 2-2.
He is going to redo it Monday at lunch and I'll have to redo it Monday evening to beat his updated score.
I should be fresher on Monday since I stupidly hit a long leg workout yesterday.

Good luck, I am happy w my effort, at 47 it's alot of work in 13 minutes

I'm in the same age group. I crush overhead movements, though. If I can get to HSPUs with 11-11:30 on the clock, I could get between 35-40 reps in my remaining time.

I just started crossfit last June...my first open....nnd yes cardio needs more work....but while dudes I know were scaling and getting 271 reps....I was Rxing and feeling real pain.
I don't run around bragging about crossfit but I love these types of workouts when you just get wrecked by a movement and have to push on to the next.....
It's done wonders for my flexabilty and built me into a pretty efficient dad

Has this Open been very shoulder intensive to anyone else as well?
I got done on the rower at 9:34 and could only crank out 16 HSPU cause my shoulders have been so shot lately. I'm satisfied but I know I could have done better.
So Rx 181 today.

I impinged something in my left shoulder warming up for 17.1 and it's still sore.
I want to shave 20 secs off of each movement on my redo and give myself another minute for HSPUs on my redo Monday.

17.5 Predictions
17.5a DB Thrusters
Double unders
Hoping Dave throws in a 2nd part and has a max squat clean.
17.5b is.........5 minutes to find one rep max squat clean.

Everybody is predicting thrusters so it won't be thrusters.
Posted on 3/21/17 at 2:29 pm to L S Usetheforce
Every xx.5 open workout going back to 2012 has included thrusters so you know it is coming. Double unders have been in a workout every year as well.
It'll probably be a triplet with DB Thrusters, DUs and Ring MUs.

I've done 5 ultra ironman's, 10 regular ironman's, 25 marathons, 20 triathlons.
However I gave all that up years ago and am in the best shape of my life. As a substitute I started fricking your wife while you're at crossfit.

I can go 30 or so strict HSPUs unbroken when I'm fresh
I hate to be the BS guy, but damn son. If that statement is correct then your upper body is about as strong as a person can be. I'm someone who's pretty thin relative to height and usually dominates body weight exercises when they're upper body-focused, and I couldn't even dream of 30 HSPUs unbroken.One of the more impressive strength feats if so (or one of the better OT claims if BS
). As far as this 17.4, I always pass on high-rep deadlift WODs, just not my thing. Sounds brutal, though.

The next time I'm not beat the F up from open workouts, I'll video me going for 30. My max strict shoulder press is 217.5. 225 will be going up soon.
We had a workout a few weeks ago that was 4 rounds of:
3 minute time cap: 250M row and max HSPUs with the remaining time. Rest 2 min and repeat.
First round was 25 strict after the row before I came off the wall (wasn't to failure yet) and ended up with 42 in roughly my 2 min remaining.
I was toast after that though. I need to work on my endurance during WODs.
