5 rounds (Through the 15 reps, had about 12 seconds left on the clock. 12-ft rope climbs, so I did a small climb after the full climb. In round 3 I missed the top of the truss in the barn, so I did a little extra on the small climb for that round. The L-sit was pretty difficult, held the legs straight and feet together tight, but basically held my breath the whole ascent. Overhead squats were wobbly. The midline was pretty thrashed after the running and deadlift/sit-ups.)
M/36/6'/175#
Subbed two 10' L-sit from seated rope climbs each round (dropped from the top; did not maintain L-sit on the way back down).

Peace.
Scaled to 2 legless rope climbs, from seated to 8 ft. OHS as rx’d. Got through the round of 18 OHS, plus rope climbs, plus 5/21 OHS reps.
Even with the scaling, I had to cheat here and there on the legless climbs when my grip fatigued. Still, I’m happy I didn’t just dodge these; the grip work alone is killer. OHS were unbroken through round of 15, then 12-6. They felt pretty good, was glad to get through so much unbroken. Left wrist and shoulder smarted a bit though.

Couldn't maintain form on the L-sit climbs, specially on the descents.
Nice challenging movement!

Haven't done OHS in forever, a yuge weakness for me as is. Chris'd this one the first few minutes. Started 3 weighted pull-ups (12lbs); 3 OHS (12lbs dumbbells). Did a few variations and ended with 3 weighted pull-ups (20lbs); 24 goblet squats (24kg KB)
Chris'd: when you try out different variations during the workout.
No rope, subbed x7 L-sit pull-ups for each climb. Scaled weight to 95lbs.
5R + 1 "climb" + 8 OHS
Finished the round of 18 off after.
Much respect for those tackling this rxd today!

MY STUFF
Didn't get to this in time, so I went back and made up the Roaming Diane from late-April. 6:53 as rx
GENERAL FEAR LEVEL: 6
Mickey, the elbows straight is just about creating tension in the shoulders. Externally rotate the shoulders (elbow pits up to the ceiling, elbow tips towards the ground) and keep them spun the entire time as best as you can and that will go a long way towards keeping tension. Also, mashing your biceps and elbow and forearms with a barbell will get those boys straight for you.
Also a side note, Joe was one of the interns at my first ever L-1 in 2010. A few other notable ones there as well. Cool to see how they climb up the ladder over time.
Any tips for those of us whose elbows simply won't go 100% straight and won't lock? It's something I've struggled with since I started CrossFit 10 years ago.
...and when I correct my wife on anything she gets upset! 😅
Simple, effective!
Joe is the 🐐
Agreed. He was at my l1 course.
