Np Adam.  You have not paid yet.  I will shake you down next time I see you:P

Wow. I’m crap!

FYI, I dropped in today and grabbed my 9” rope. So mark me down as collected.

Thanks once again

Your welcome Aaron.  Anthony, Scott, Hamish I will bring yours in tomorrow am.

Matt

Matt, I passed my rope onto Aaron.
So, when I (finally) pay you I’ll have to grab another.

Cheers.

True Story

I have been having trouble with Double unders for ever. Once or twice I have got 15 consecutive but the stars need to be f*cking aligned perfectly for that to happen. Normally its between 1 and 3 and often many failed singles when I’m tired. It drives me crazy.

That was with a buddy lee speed rope that I have had for the past couple of years. Well the other day it broke beyond repair. So I pick up a rogue rope from Matthew.

Try it out for the first time last night in a workout. WOD was as follow

10-1 HSPU
1-10 Pullups
10 Double unders each rd.

So thats 10 rounds of 10 DU. Normally the DU would be the part that would hold me up and i would have been happy to get One rounds out consecutively. Well low and behold I did every single rd unbroken for the double unders, the rope felt so smooth, like never before.

I am so happy, one of the thorns in my side in Crossfit suddenly looks fixed! Its amazing what I good rope will do.

Pleased it worked out for you mate.  I am really happy with the speed I’m getting. Looking forward to my next DU WOD.

Max rep DUs coming soon…
