GO TERESA! 55 in the REGION! YOU ROCK!!!!!!
How long can you hang on the pull-up bar between pull-ups?....
This is almost "Lynne"
Didn't we just do that recently??
My pullups are fine... I need to work on squatting stuff.
That reads a little snarky... not what I meant, sorry.
Does anybody else find that WODs you are good at sort of "dangerous" in the sense you tend to over do it?
I hear ya Sarah. Confidence in a move definitely gets one to "Go all in" during the workout. In this WOD - I'd look at it as a Heavy Bench Day with a bonus round.
Plus, the 1st round of Pull-Ups is the only round that counts for the test score (Lbs. x Reps = Score).
The other rounds, I would use as an 'opportunity' to experiment with holding a specific number of PU's across the last rounds. You can use the data from the last Lynne and see if you can maintain your PU Ave. +1 or 2 reps, or something like that.
... And we'll see some squatting, don't you worry. :)
Rachel,
Thanks so much! :)
To answer your question, if it's like Lynne or Lynette, you can hang as long as your grip holds. Once you fall, you're done. But, I did switch grips mid-round a couple of times during Lynette without dropping from the bar and that was accepted. Evan or Mandi can correct me if I'm wrong though.
Congratulations, Teresa! Well deserved.
CONGRATULATIONS TERESA!!!
