What Will said!! I know I won’t do very well on the pull ups so I plan on doing as many as I can in one go, and then resting for the remainder of the 20 seconds. If I can pick up 5 per round I’ll probably be happy enough.

If I couldn’t do chest to bar pullups for this workout, I’d do it unscaled, accept a score of 0 for each pullup interval and try like hell to make up the lost ground on the deadlifts. With 40 seconds rest, a reasonably strong person could easily get 20 deadlifts on each interval, which would still leave them with a fairly competitive score.

Yeah i’m wondering the same thing re pullups should I go for blue band where I might get 2 or 3 or green band where i’d get way more?

i was really looking forward to a non-scaled invitational but C2B pull ups are going to a be a problem.

question is, is it worth going rx and getting 3 or 4 C2Bs or scaling and getting stacks of regular pull ups? from a leader board sense?

for me “stacks” = about 10

I usually burn out and then fade away!

Pacing is for wimps.

Burn up, not fade away.

I’d rather die on my feet than live on my knees.

Ra-Ra-Ra!

Grrrrrr!!

GrrrrrrrRAAAAAWR!!!!

(is it obvious that I’m getting excited?)

3 snatches should be reasonbly quick (until wobbly legs). Toes to bar with kipping take feck all time. Most of the time is going to be on the rower so I’ll be employing some kind of pacing strategy on it.
