5 Rounds w/ Partner
20 Push Jerks 165/110#
4 Rope Climbs 15ft  (RX+ = 20ft)

WOD Notes: Goal is sub 40 minutes. Box step-ups are front rack. You may use a lower box if necessary. PJ = 55% (should be unbroken each round but difficult). RC sub = climb 10-12ft, 5 strict pu/RC, 8 RR/RC, or 3 heavy pulley/RC.

11/2/2023 – WOD

Strength
Hang Power Snatch + Full Snatch – 1 Every 1:15 x 10 Sets

Conditioning
5 RFT
4 Wall Walks
16 DB Snatches 60/40#  (RX+ = 70/50)
20/16 Cal Row

WOD Notes: Goal is 11-15 minutes. You should be able to maintain a similar pace each rd, since your shoulders should be fresh going into the WW. DB snatches should be unbroken as well (you may switch as needed but do equal reps both arms). Use the row to recover & focus on low stroke rate (22-28 strokes/min). WW sub = 40 shoulder taps.

WOD Notes: Goal is 14-18 minutes. Thrusters should be unbroken, so pick DB’s that allow that to happen even when fatigued. T2B sub = T2R, GHD SU, Weighted SU, or hanging leg raises. Shuttle Runs: 1 Rep = 30ft out + 30ft back (30ft = 5 mats).
