My back is toast like I said the other night. I have been wanting to do this for many reasons, mostly because this thing has owned me since I started it. I was determined to get it done. I did figure out one trick last time that I used tonight. I got the bouncing rubber weights. On the power cleans when I drop the weight to my knees from the full stance it jerks my low back and I am toast by round 2. That jerking motion is horrible. So last time I figured out if I bounce the weight on the down stroke and catch it at my knees for the next rep and don't use that momentum I seem to be able to save my back. I did this tonight and was able to roll through even with my back in pretty solid pain. I did try it a few times with out bouncing it and man I know why this thing has torn me up. I did have to use the hex bar for the dead lifts which I don't think I have done before because my back is hurting so badly. I can't be disappointed in this workout for any reason. Thanks for sticking around Daniel! Not near as hot today either. Still 80plus and I lost I am guessing roughly 4 lbs during the workout. This is my 4th time at this workout. The first two times were adapted and I did not even attempt a time it hammered me so badly. April 13th 2010, December 28th 2010 were the previous dates other than the below from last summer. Seems like I have had some issues or some thing hindering this WOD every time I have done it.

Holy cow. I don't know what I have done but my low back is on fire and way out of wack today. I will hang get it to move and when I start to walk I get a few steps and something moves and sinches up. Hurt before the WOD and is killing me after. I probably should not have done it today. Pride took over. I was exhausted from the hours and biking the crazy hills at camp. Long drives kill my back too. Either way I have done this 2 times before and all of them have sucked. I promised my self I would not scale this time and do it right. I did not scale and did all exercises correct. Even the push jerk I got the dip drive dip going. The dead lifts were unbroken. The hang power cleans were killing my back but I did get the first 2 rounds unbroken. The push jerks the first 2 rounds were unbroken I think. Round 3 I went to get some chalk from Claytons bag and took forever. Clayton did give me a WOD tip. I would try to get to my last rep on the power cleans and then rest the last power clean I would go into the push press. By the end of round 2 the sweat was rolling off of me almost in a stream from my hands when I would reach down for the bar. The dripping was so fast it literally would have been a stream of sweat if it went any faster. I lost 5 lbs plus from the workout. I am currently 21 hours into a fast as well. I am going to go for 24 hours, made 24 hour barrier. I blew my diet at camp this week and trying to get re-set. Between my back and some intestine issues this is not a good day. Plus the WOD was miserable again. I did get it done and not adapted or scaled. I was 192 this morning and am now 185. Glad to see that the weight was still gone even with eating poorly the last few days.
