OCTOBER HSPU CHALLENGE LEADERS:

MALES:  ROCKY WARDEN 33 Dan Alba 34

FEMALES: Joanne Deni with 9

OCTOBER CHALLENGE:  Max Unbroken Handstand Push Ups. Dan Alba is in the lead with 32.  No female score has been submitted.  

STANDARDS: Two Rogue 25lb Rubber plates will be placed on the ground next to the wall with an abmat in between. The start and finish positions of each rep are identical, with the hands flat and completely on the plates, the arms locked out, body straight and only the feet touching the wall. The feet must be inside the hands, meaning the width of the feet must be less than the width of the hands. The fingers cannot wrap off the edge of the plate, nor can they descend into the hole of the plate. From the starting position, the arms bend until the head touches the abmat. The athlete presses back up until the start finish position is achieved.  The feet must be on the wall to complete the rep. The legs can bend together but not one at a time. Kipping is allowed. No climbing up the wall with your legs. If your legs are straight, your feet can slide up the wall.  Have a coach validate and submit your score.  Post any clarifying questions to the comments.
