WOD:   'Diane'

21 - 15 - 9 Reps For Time of the Following...

Deadlift

Handstand Push Ups

Rx weight for Deadlift is 225#, scale as necessary.  Steven, it should be heavy/hard work.  I would recommend say 175#, of course you can always go down (better to try the heavier weight and then go down than do something you know is too light).  As for the Handstand push ups, those can be scaled lowering the angle of the body relative from vertical to horizontal as in a regular pushup.  So try against the wall but if must scale then lessen the elevation of the feet and so forth.  Good luck and good work on the 'Chief' modification.   

Sam arrived yesterday, so far so good.  Post your work to comments and when I see that you have done the workout then I will post a new workout.  Get Herbie off his butt!

There is no internet connection at the house in San Salvador, so that is why I have been out of the matrix for awhile.  In Ahuachapan today, back in the matrix. 

Steven Congratulations on the bar test and I hope that everything went well!

BTW, how was the wall ball push up wod, I am curious what the suck factor on that is?

Also, the following in fact only may be of interest to Steven but Crossfit St. Charles, which happens to be located in a Gymnastics facility will be holding all day Gymnastics workshop on 23 November 2008.  Cost is $60/person.  It will go over basics of ring training, tumbling, handstands, rope climbs, ect.  Steven, if you are at all interested let me know and I can send you more info.
