Let me preface this diatribe by saying I WAS doing HSPU with my hands on the ground and an Abmat under my head. Been doing that for months, thought I was Rxing WODs with HSPU. Life was good. Fast forward to today.
All of a sudden, to Rx the HSPU, I must have a 25lb plate on each side of the Abmat to place my hands on, not to mention hands go on the INSIDE side of the hole. This is a whole new ballgame people, This adds 2 inches to the depth of your HSPU. I struggled like a Mother Fu@ker. Took me almost 20 minutes to finish. Moral of the story........2 inches makes a huge difference. Depth matters.
