    Hey Kel
    Whats a sub for the 50 x front squat at 60kg? I have a 24kg kettlebell and was thinking 50 x right arm 50 x left arm front squats with the same 10 Double unders when the KB hits the ground

    Hi Chris. I am thinking a 24kg KB is a little light for front squats, you probably won't need to put it on the ground may I suggest overhead instead?

    Yeh i thought that to. I might do the CFT WOD from yesterday - I have a box, a chin bar and 2 x 24kg KB for the chest to overhead. I will save the front squat for tomorrow when im back at butterworth and in the gym. Good luck with Arnie today, I loved this one, it really showed up lots of weaknesses.

    Originally I was thinking of doing "Nutts" but remembered that we 'fail at the margin of our experiences' (Glassman)so went for Arnie - did it this morning and died at the scene..

    I only have four words for "Arnie". Oh My God. Yes - that's three words, but the fourth word starts with F and may be too crass for CFD.

    Of course YOU would love this one Chris...

    So we did Arnie with 8kg KB because that's all we had at work - even though the main site had 2 pood - but it was still hard work!
