I did this one in January at 10Fitness. My last results were with 35# DBs, unweighted step ups, 26:30.

I gave myself a little bit of help on rounding to find the right DB weight. 177/4=44.25...so I rounded down to 40 instead of up to 45 and man, I couldn't imagine doing that WOD with anything heavier. Plus my tendonitis in my shoulder started flaring up again. I guess its from all of the pressing we've done this week.
