How did everyone go? I found it less *kitten* than I was expecting. I thought I would get to about 5 mins and decide to rest for the last three!!! But I paced well and got through it. I did scaled, hspu are a while away for me yet (but a goal) and I did 80 reps. I am along way from good but I really enjoyed this workout. But I am sore today!
Everyone at my box are saying box jumps, burpees and thrusters may come up in 15.5. Sounds pretty dreadful if you ask me

Oh. My. Traps. 76 scaled, my cleans need some work; they aren't nearly as smooth as they need to be!0

I did scaled. 70 reps. Not real proud of it0

But my baby girl got her first HSPU at the age of NINE!

Sorry, tried to post the vid of it. I guess I can't.0

Didn't mind this one. Would have liked more reps as this (the scaled version anyway) is the sort of WOD I'm made for. Got 820

Didn't like the new standard for HSPUs. Really made a difference for me. Had to move hands closer together and closer to wall. 35 reps RX.0

We only train strict HSPU in my box. Of course, come competition time when kipping is allowed, I have no clue how to do it. The coaches tried to teach us but in 10 minutes, it is next to impossible. I'm already not super comfortable upside down, so I resolved myself to doing this scaled.
106 reps.
My traps are FRIED!0 -
I did RX Masters 65 Reps, afterwards I felt I could have done more but I was afraid of failing early and just staring at the barbell the last 2 minutes. I also noticed a few strange responses from folks when I told them I did RX Masters which was the same rep count as RX except the Masters was 95 lbs push press like scaled. Should I feel bad for doing the Masters? Hell it was my birthday last Saturday at the open and I turned 56... yes I know how to celebrate my birthday... LOL!0

My seven year old banged out all kinds of HSPU, but she's tiny and a gymnast LOL. I did it scaled and got 105, which was the highest scaled female in my box, so I'll take it!0

Great Job Everyone! I completed scaled and got 55. I am still working on lifting heavy weights and just started cleaning 75# and push pressing 65# a week or two ago. I wish I was stronger and could do better, but I'm okay now with what I got. I was crying after the WOD; not from pain, but from disappointment in myself. I can't wait for 15.5 to be over!0

I got 19 reps RX. I have never done rx hspu in a WOD so this was a PR for me. The standard made it super tough because my hands had to be a little narrower than I'm used to get my heels over the line. I had a bunch of no reps for not getting above the line even though I was locked out, I do like the new hspu standard though, much better than people going super wide with their hands and move like 3 inches up and down.
I do wish the cleans would've went up in same ladder as the hspu, but I guess that's not what dave castro wanted to test

103 scaled. That wod was my jam but next year would love to have Rx HSPUs!0

Scaled 73, and I did it last minute last night. Several people had told me to pace myself so I did, doing 5 reps at a time. If I did it again I think I'd get into the mid 80s and push a little harder.0

Scaled 70. Our box had us use 1 bar and switch weights in between lifts (add/remove the 10#). Owner thought it would be fair for the busier classes that didn't have enough bars for 2 bars/person. wasn't happy but I'm new. I don't think it impacted me too much, I may have gotten a few more reps in though.0

That's nuts! It was only 8 minutes, they couldn't have you guys go in heats instead to save bars?0 -

I agree! We go in heats and judge each other...three heats per class, or one heat every 15-18 minutes. Sucks. :-(0 -
Oh, and I got 38 reps Rx for this one. I was pissed because I wanted to get back to the bar for another clean, but I didn't strategize well. I should have come off the wall a little more often before I failed a rep. I think I failed 3-4 reps, which led to the time I wasted. 125lbs is close to my 1RM, so that was tough...but really it's just that when your shoulders are gone? They're gone. haha0

59 rx. Loved that one!0
