   Hey Shane,

   24kg is standard for men. Rob told me all about you.. you should be using a 40kg for this.

   I have to admit that I lolly-gagged around with this one last week, but you crushed the length of time it took me to do this one! Nice work.

   I will have to thank Rob next time I see him.

   I hope he also told you about how helpful I have found your site. Thanks for the great work.

   Jason,

   I am working my way up. 26 minutes 31 seconds with 20 kg. Should knock out the 40 kg. by Friday than fall on the floor and die.

   do you have to do 50 reps before you switch sides?
8. Pamela MacElree on February 5th, 2008 2:46 pm
   

   Yep.

   OK..so adhering to Pamela’s ruling that all reps per side must be completed before switching hands, it took me 2-1/2 hours to get through all 500 reps with the 32kg.

   No excuses, but I did do my light Oly lift workout first and I was also coaching one of my WL athletes in between work sets…but if someone can actually do 16RPMs a minute non-stop for 30 minutes (that’s the math) then they truly have the strength endurance of an android and the pain tolerance of an immortal. I paced myself but I am still freakin’ wrecked.

    You guys are awesome. Shane, if you try this with a 40kg you’re nuts.

    Used the 24kg. today, 35 minutes 25 seconds,

    Jason, Does it count if it takes 4 hrs with the 40kg.?

    As far as being nuts most people would agree I am.

    31 minutes 26 seconds with a 12 kg.

    Next time I will push myself harder and use the 16 kg.

    I am not an Internet Tough Guy, so I must be a weak performer:

    225lb x 1 x 2
    225lb + chains x 1 x 2
    275lb + chains x 12 x 2
    ==> OK, not great, had not done these in a while.

    5 plates x 1 x 10
    7 plates x 1 x 10
    8 plates x 1 x 10
