Warm-up: 3 Rounds
Front Squats
Below parallel to full extension!
Scaling:Today’s workout challenges you to push the pace on each row and go unbroken on the couplet in the middle. Do your best not to “game” this workout. Instead, hit the first row hard and then get ready to find your hip flexors. Choose an option for the toes-to-bar that allows you to complete each round in 2 sets or less. As for the box jump-over, use a height that allows you to keep moving and finish your reps in less than a minute. On the last row, give it everything you have left.
Skill Work: Clean + Jerk
For time:
Scaling: Today’s workout is a sprint effort. No pacing. Most know what they are capable of if they “game” the bike. However, it becomes a different story and maybe a little more scary when you dance with the unknown. The loading of the barbell should be moderate and allow you to complete the weightlifting portion of this workout with quick sets and minimal rest. Adjust load to spend no more than 4 minutes on the 20 clean and jerks, allowing for a rep at least every 12 seconds.
