unless you have a serious medical condition then this is a non issue

work on your weaknesses

do not avoid them

use a sub

get ups are not a good exercise for metcon

the weight used is probabaly only 20% over bodyweight

the distance the combined centre of mass moves is the same as a burpee

the time taken to do get up is more than 20% extra compared to the time take to do a burpee

this will slow down the whole workout

this cold be because your not used to being upside down or you actually do have a condition

i'l post a substitute later so that you can practice at home with a spotter and see if its a matter of just getting used to it

we can get you to practise holding a handstand and see how you feel, might be you are holding your breath etc. That could be a sub too, holding a handstand (with support) for say 3 seconds/rep (i.e. if 8 reps, then hold a handstand for 24 seconds total time)

Sub for HSPU I'd say either static HS 3secs/rep, or else 2x16kg/20kg KB press if you are lighter than 70kg, otherwise 1x24kg each hand counts as 1 rep (i.e. you'd have to do 16 reps total)

how many KBs do we have tomorrow?

I will do first wave with bryan. I need to rush home after that to pick up my wife. I bring my 24kg KB.

If you don't know how to do it, how can you not like it?

Anyway, another sub could be handstand wall runs

I'll bring my 16+20kg+rings tomorrow
I'm assuming Phing will bring his 16+24?
And Keith will bring whatever?

So we have 2x16 and 2x24 and 1x20. If Keith brings a 16 we can do 3 people at each station. Double that to 6 per wave if we stagger. So, we can do about 2 waves since there are about a dozen people coming.
