      Doing the math that says your max would be 295. I want to be there to see that when it goes down. Isn’t that ~2x BW? wow

    Ok guys, help! I mixed up my weights when I recorded them on the white board. So what is a 45# bar plus 20kg? I think that’s ~89# if my math skills are right.
    8 rounds + 5 PU + 8 Push

      Google knows the answer.
      Do a google search for (45 lbs + 20 kg) in lbs=

        You make way too much sense! Yep, it’s 89#. Thanks Tim (and Google).
