what's rxd?
Squats can only strengthen, tear or break something. Strengthening, tearing and breaking is totally awesome. Thus squats are awesome.

Rxd=As prescribed (i.e. no substituting band pullups, jumping pullups, only using 24kg KB, not 16/8).

I think only Kevin, Goi, weixian, Bryan and myself (although I can't kip) did as rx'd, (is there a KB weight for the women? Ree did 16kg, I can't imagine that for women it's also 1.5 pood?). Everybody else was e.g. either doing band pullups or had to switch to lighter KB weight (I insisted for Vic, as his form went to pieces after the first few swings with the 24kg).

Important thing is not whether you had to sub, but in future workouts, using the same sub movements, make sure your time improves. And 2nd, you can slowly lessen the use of the substitute movements.

Well said Phing, slowly lessen the subsitution. Its great to see everyone's GPP is improving by leaps and bounds, champs like Bryan and Vic are so much faster now compared to when I first saw them. The Gals like Steph and Ree are plain monsters with such consistant pace. Keith and Phing (love Birds always 2gether during the challenge) always strategising their rounds, KC's all out effort............... and the list goes on. For all the names that were not mentioned you have inspired me to work harder one way or another. Thank you all for brining meaning to my Sundays :)

The Gals will normally do 70% of the prescribed but some of the firebreathers like Nicole Caroll and Eva T do the prescribed.
1 Pood = 16kg / 35 #
1.5 Pood = 24 kg / 55#
2 Pood = 32kg / 70#
Constant Variant, Functional Movements executed at high intensity eliciting in an increased work capacity across broad time and modal domains........

totally with the wrong form.
im not worried about timing that much because u can do it with the improper forms.
chugging is... , er, sort of exhaling out to bring down my heart rate. and then moving ur limps and hands or smth like that i think.
i dunno how to describe =s

last week cns took a toll on me. the feeling is like... you really really dun feel like going training at all. you totally lose the motivation to even step out of the house. for my case lah.
and then the sickness never go away.
im not sick anymore, just left with mucus and phlegm that's all.
