Seven rounds for time of:
75 pound Shoulder Press, 21 reps
21 Back extensions
Post time to comments.
I got a 30:29 but the back extension unit and the place where I can shoulder presswith a bar are on complete opposite sides of the gym and there's about a 30 second walk between stations. Looks easier than it felt but I need shoulder workouts because I think they are my weakest link. Currently, I can still use my arms which is a bonus. When I was warming up I had 65 pounds on the bar and was pressing it and for a second I thought, "Well, 10 more pounds isn't going to make a difference, this will be easy." Easy once maybe, twice too, even easy 12 times, 147 times however and it becomes more difficult.

I'm doing this this afternoon. My intentions are to try as rx'd. I dread it.
"The road to hell is paved with good INTENTIONS...."
I don't understand, Splint, why you feel that 147 reps of something is challenging... Chuck Norris could do them all with one hand behind his back... :P Teasing... I'm not sure where the Chuck Norris thing came from...
But seriously, this is solid work. I seriously get more smoked by shoulder work than anything else. My shoulders were dying yesterday after those handstands, so don't psych yourself out about these. Good job!
But Chuck Norris has the benefit of using the Total Gym everyday, me, I've got nothing but free weights. :)
HAHAHAHAHAHAAAA!!!!!
HAHAHAHAHAHA! Oh Splint, that was a good one! I love it! :)
