11/03 WOD

155 pound Squat Clean and Jerk, 30 reps

The barbell goes from ground to overhead, passing through a front squat in which the crease of the hip passes below the height of the kneecap. The finish position is with the arms, hips and knees fully extended, arms overhead, with at least a portion of the ear visible in front of the arm. Dropping the barbell is acceptable.


Simple... Ugly. Painful. Overhead stuff is my goat, so figured this would suck badly. And it did. I scaled to 115#. Basically broke it up into sets of 5 after the first 10. Slow. 9:40 I need to do this at a reasonable hour next time so I can drop the bar after each rep. The controlled descent to keep the noise down I'm sure wastes some energy. Yeah, that's it. :)

Warmup: 500 barefoot jump rope, shoulder mobility stuff, CFWUx1 (mods - OHS@45#, ring dips), 4x115# C&J
C/D: shoulder stuff, lacross ball stuff
