[QUOTE=Scott Jenkins;491180]September 23rd 2008, just done a little archive searching for you Nik, its fine my friend I have nothing to do at work right now!! :D

Last time it was combined with push ups instead of pull ups so do not expect to equal your time from then as this time around grip will be a much bigger factor.[/QUOTE]

Oh yea, push ups, I did it in 17+ min, I doubt I'll be anywhere near that. I'm just about to do it now. I will post it soon.


Thanks Scott.

I look forward to hearing as well Nik. I wasn't sure what I wanted to do tonight instead of the Virtual Shovels. I have done it before, but it was murder on my back. Probably because I was doing it wrong. I like Scott's idea of doing some DB's instead. I may give that a try instead.

Best of luck!

[QUOTE=Nik Nichols;491036]I did this one the first time. It was scary, I was really carefull then,I will be extra carefull now. We will see how it goes. Time will not be the main factor.[/QUOTE]

I'm with Scott on this, when I saw this one this morning I wasn't 100% as to whether I'll be doing it tomorrow or not (today) as the back was very sore after it.

Yea, but you were faster!!!


50 back ext with 25lbs to strech out my back from the shoveling.

Re: Nik
 

50 back ext with 25lbs
3sets 15 ghd's
1 hanging power clean with 85 lbs:rofl: Just trying the movement. Todays WOD will be scaled down, this is going to pet strain on where my back was hurting for the last couple of weeks, I don't want to re hurt it.

Good idea to scale the workout. I know you don't want to have to sit out again.

What weight are you planning to use?

For time:
155 pound Power clean 15 reps
30 Ring dips
155 pound Power clean 12 reps
24 Ring dips
155 pound Power clean 9 reps
18 Ring dips
