DL was 137 or something like that.
of course we have 5 people show up to the morning class on a Friday when we do Linda.. thanks for being patient everyone.
Couldn’t make it in for the WOD today, so I did something quick from home.
200 16kg kettlebell swings for time: 8:09.
I think I got off easy–Linda sounds brutal.
yes you did
bloody miserable WOD…definitely the worst yet

Oh Linda, you sexy lady.
Let’s scale this one below 50% Rx, shall we?
DL: 89
BP: 57
SC: 47 (first time doing squat cleans!)

Guys, thanks for all the tips; Fran, thanks for pushing me!

199 DL
123 BP

Could have gone heavier on BP.

123 BP (82%) should have done 133
82 SC (55%)

I think this starting strength thing is producing results…really underestimated my BP!!! Nice programing FORNEY!!!
The last time I did Linda RXd was about a year ago. I weighed 150 and did power cleans instead of squat-cleans. 25:23
Today’s Linda (weighing 155) with squat cleans, but not quite Rxd:
DL (1.5): 231
Bench (1): 155 (to round 3), 145 (0.94) after round 3
Cleans (0.72): 111
23: 43
DL – 225 -> 199
BP – 133
SC – 111 -> 89
Dropped wgt after 1st 2 rds.

Thanks for the encouragement & coaching!
Nice work everyone that showed up for this one!
Thanks
I halved all of my Rx weights and rounded to the nearest 10 kilo.
DL-133# (74%)

Bench presses were a little too easy.
