[@ilichirias6266]

Great work, John!! UB thrusters 👏. Awesome score!!!

[@MFMustache]

Thank you again Ilich! I consider thrusters a strength, so decided to go for it them!

[@bignoknow]

Epic. Let’s go!!!

[@MFMustache]

Thanks so much Noah!

[@shelbytops]

I was happy to get one set of BMU and a heavy thruster Well done Champ!!

[@MFMustache]

That is a great accomplishment, good work!! And thank you!

[@liamstaunton3072]

I did this earlier (I’m 52) 124 reps/6+7. You did great there to keep all those thrusters ub. The heavy bar crushed me but a fun wod all the same.

[@MFMustache]

That’s a great score as well! My strategy was to force UB thrusters as I knew my bmu’s wouldn’t be fast enough! Appreciate you, keep workin!

[@Angel20242]

That was awesome good job

[@MFMustache]

Thank you so much Angel!

[@shawarma6129]

[@pelomocho8567]

to go UB in thruster...beast mode

[@MFMustache]

I felt like I had no choice, haha. My bmu’s need to be better!

[@pelomocho8567]

@@MFMustache 139 over here. coulda done better but overall satisfied, my BMU in fatigue are poor

[@MFMustache]

@@pelomocho8567 that's a great score Pelo! I am right there with you with BMU's that need to be better under fatigue!

Thank you!!

[@kevinpence2971]

Amazing!

[@MFMustache]

Much appreciated Kevin!

[@oficinarr]

I´ll try 24.3 later soon. If I get the 1st round of 2 part done, I´ll be a happy man. Age group 40-44 here.

[@MFMustache]

I know a few friends who had that same goal…I’d recommend doing approximately emom for part 1, that’ll give you about 4 minutes (hopefully semi-fresh) for part 2!

[@oficinarr]

@@MFMustache I am a happy man indeed. Finished the 6th round (my goal) and did 3 thrusters. I didn't see your advice in time but I finished first 5 rounds in 10:04. Virtually EMOM

[@MFMustache]

@@oficinarrawesome, great job!!

[@oficinarr]

[@Istvan_5]

nice job

[@MFMustache]

Thank you!

[@jefferson.notaro]

better chest2bar than the Australian at the announcement

[@MFMustache]

Haha, I truly appreciate that! Jay Crouch is a smidge fitter than me though! Appreciate your support!

[@jefferson.notaro]

​@@MFMustache You are humble, Jay is also much younger... but it is a fact that, in my opinion, you made more defined movements, and I am sure that Jay wishes he could be so fit at your age. I wish you a great season Champion!

[@jefferson.notaro]

I'm 54 years old and I could only do 107 repetitions :)

[@MFMustache]

You are very kind Jefferson, thank you so much! Welcome to the #mustachemafia and the plan is #birminghamorbust

[@MFMustache]

@@jefferson.notaro we're all really just competing against ourselves (imo)...that's a fantastic score. More importantly, you now have a number to see if your fitness improves next time. Goal is simple...better than yesterday!
