Push-us and rope climbs - Brand X workout; Monday, August 11th

Buy in
Max handstand hold
1:20

3 rounds
50 push ups
15 beginners rope climbs

29:05

Cash out
70 squats

I don't know if that's the correct cash out, the Brand Xers are reporting it inconsitently.

That was a slog. It was not enjoyable.
Good workout.

A 1:20 handstand hold with no assistance?!? Dude, thats awesome! You are a handstanding fool! Have you been practicing them a bunch?

It was handstands against a wall.
Sorry, I didn't mean to mis-represent myself.
I didn't bother to qualify the post because for me it's just a given that I can't do a free-standing handstand yet. I tried while I was at brand-x and got some really good opportunities to practise my roll-outs.

We just got back from Sweden so I haven't followed your "musings". Did you do a thread at the BX Forum about your Adventures?
You know when i doubt about the cash out...(he he..) do them HYPOXIC!!

Sven!

No, not yet. I only finished uploading photos last Friday, I was off the internet almost completely over the weekend (shades of Ramona)and I've been busy just doing "stuff", ie all the boring things you have to do when you're not on holiday.
Look for blog posts and something on the forum soon. Fortunately Lynette kept very good notes of the trip, yes, including documenting the activities of two idiots who kept hanging around the gym.

Say hi to Essie. We miss you both.
