This has gotta make main site. I'm thinking we call it the Pop Tart Wrap, an evolution of the Spanish Wrap.

Jason, you know that I am a disciple of The Prophet, Strength and Power be upon Him, who forbids HSPUs. He also forbids non-Paleo Strawberry Pop Tarts.

Just measured it. The Yoke's crossbar is set to 26" from floor to center of the bar. The girth of the bar is about that of a 2" plumbers pipe. Standard Oly. bars can be used, but can dig in.

Check Youtube and you'll se many folks with wraps around the nook of their elbows.

Also check the Conan's Wheel

Is this one of those circus tricks that we do warming up at the meet to make us look bad-ass?

Thanks Evan.

The Pop Tart WOD claimed its first victim. Smashed fingers, this sucks. I hope y'all enjoyed the WOD anyways.

RachelRose said...

John I hope your finger is not too aweful :( Maybe Cain can give you a crazy asian brew to soak your finger in to make it all better.

John--you need to rename the WOD "Bonecrusher".

And Evan, how about "What John will not be doing for the next few months"

Evan said...

John created the WOD, so he gets final say, but I'm in for lobbying he name the WOD "Bonecrusher"

I'd say pulling motions are out, as are WODs on Percocet.
