  1. Great job last week, Christoph! I guess you felt left out being sick last time we did this one. I didn't realize what it was until we started and then the oh *$%! kicked in... But I knocked 2.5 mins off my last time so feel alright.
    was just over 48mins as prescribed.
    Took a while to recover, too. Was a little late getting to 'the office'...

    Can't wait to see more scores. I think I can wait for the pain that is on its way tomorrow though... Good luck everyone and have a great weekend.

  2. Holy s#@t! 59:30 for me today, that was a true butt kicker. Had to lower the deadlidts to 205# and the thursters to 80 using dumb bells just to keep anything resembling form. Great workout...I hate you guys, haha. Bring on the sore weekend!

  3. I am beginning to like HSPUs! 32:07 for me with weight modifications to thrusters (65 pounds) and KB swings (35 pounds). Incredible job Matt. Since you knocked it out as prescribed, your time is the one to beat. Have a great weekend!

  4. 52:20 for me...sorry for choosing this workout, but it really kicked in ;-) I thought I could beat Matt's time again this week, but at the end all my strength left me and I was crouching through the last rounds.
    Won't be easy to get up tomorrow morning because of sore muscles....(in German= Muskelkater -->muscle cat )
    Have a great weekend!

  5. I'm hating Christoph right now, this was rough.

    My time was 45:50 with a couple weight reductions.

    Thrusters were reduced to 95# after 2 rounds
    DL's were reduced to 225# after 3 rounds
    HSPU's were reduced to standing flat foot shoulder press with 40# dumb-bells

    As Christoph said, I'll have some 'muscle-cat' tomorrow.
