Jeremy and I sat huddled around my laptop for the announcement of 15.2. We had just received another new round of snow, so driving to the box to watch it live with friends wasn’t an option.
Workout 15.2
For as long as possible:
From 0:00-3:00
2 rounds of:
10 overhead squats (95 / 65 lb.)
10 chest-to-bar pull-ups
From 3:00-6:00
2 rounds of:
12 overhead squats (95 / 65 lb.)
12 chest-to-bar pull-ups
From 6:00-9:00
2 rounds of:
14 overhead squats (95 / 65 lb.)
14 chest-to-bar pull-ups
Etc., following same pattern
This time last year, overhead squats were miserable for me. The weight was OK, but my shoulder stability wasn’t. Last year I scored a 6 for that WOD. Basically, it was three minutes of my favorite cuss words.



Tasha, I remember when you did 14.2 and your whole article was about the overhead squat. And then I saw recently on social media that you PR’d your OHS at 95# and I thought to myself, “OMG, not very long ago her shoulder stability wouldn’t let her hold 65!” I have truly loved following your progress. You are proof that if everyone just sticks it out, keeps coming back, keeps pushing through day by day, success is a reality. Who cares about the pull-ups? You’ll have them by next year. In fact, if Dave does a three-peat next year, I guess you’ll be writing about how many rounds you get?? 😉 So glad you write these up for us.
