TNPS III - 27/8/15

Edition III of the Thursday Night Pain Society was for the hard units only.

It was the shortest TNPS of all time, but perhaps the most brutal.

Only BF06 and BF00 were hard enough to complete it.


This is how it looked:

Warm up with squats, wall squats and lunges 

Work up to heavy back squat: 

5 @ 132#

3 @ 176#

2 @ 220#

1 @ 264# 

10x back squat at bodyweight (187#) + 30s row sprint (minimum standard 160m) 

5 rounds:  

BF00: 167m, 168m, 167m, 167m, 167m 

BF06: 160m, 160m, 161m, 163m, 168m 

Then BF06 had the (Sophie's) choice: Door 1 or Door 2. Whatever lay behind it was our destiny.

He chose Door 1:

Maximum continuous deadlifts at 100kg without setting the bar down
(standard when fresh is 30 reps):

BF06: 20 

BF00: 30 

By now the legs were jelly and the "bonus" round was not required.

Another hard night enters the annals of Black Fish history.

"What you talkin' 'bout Willis?"
