<\/p>\nThis was seriously no joke. I missed watching the announcement live and got a text that just said… 800 double unders. Then some more details. My first thought was I can barely get 3 dubs in a row and they usually double the number for single unders. Fortunately that wasn’t the case!<\/p>\n
Here is the actual 18.3 Rx
\n2 rounds for time:
\n100 double-under
\n20 overhead squats (115\/80)
\n100 double-unders
\n12 ring muscle-ups
\n100 double-unders
\n20 dumbbell snatches (50\/35)
\n100 double-unders
\n12 bar muscle-ups<\/p>\n
*14 min time cap<\/p>\n
Here’s what I did:<\/p>\n
100 single-unders
\n20 overhead squats 45#
\n100 single-unders
\n12 pullups
\n100 single-unders
\n20 dumbbell snatches 50#
\n100 single-unders
\n12 pullups<\/p>\n
*14 min time cap<\/p>\n
My gym took some coaching license for our competition and made modifications to the scaling. I was going to attempt a scaled +(-) the scaled plus still had dubs so I was going to do those but the overhead squat weight was lower and had pull ups.<\/p>\n
Anyway, I was going for 95# on the overhead squat. Let’s just say that was going to work. After 5 or 6 attempts I’d only completed 2 reps, I just couldn’t quite get low enough. So we stripped the plates and I finished the last 18 reps at the scaled weight of 45#. I didn’t get any more no reps!<\/p>\n
No muscle ups here and not anywhere close! I did manage to get all 24 pull ups done with only 1 no rep! He didn’t really want to call it, so I just hopped up and did one more. It was mainly in sets of 2 or 3, but I got it done!<\/p>\n
The 50# dumbbell snatch might be the biggest achievement of the morning. I wasn’t 100% sure I’d be able to do it, but it was only 10 per arm! I managed to get through with only one break and no no reps!<\/p>\n
I made it through the first round and started all over! I was able to make it through the next 100 single unders and got 9 overhead squats done before hitting the time cap! My total was 573 reps!<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
I won’t have time, but I’m curious about what I could do if I attempted it scaled as written. Thoughts?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
