Strength
12 Min to Find 1RM Clean n Jerk

Conditioning

2 Deadlifts 335/215lb (70% of 1RM)
30 Double Unders
10 Chest to Bar Pull-ups

1 Min AMRAP of GI Janes (6″ above reach)

WOD Notes: Full cleans are preferred for the clean n jerk (instead of power clean). Deadlifts must be dropped in between each rep (no touch & go reps). Scaling for double unders are 90 singles. Choose a band that will allow you to touch your chest to the bar each time if you can’t do an unassisted one. Chin over bar will be considered scaling.

WOD Notes: Score is total time minus 7 1/2 minutes of rest. This is an anaerobic threshold interval style WOD where each round is meant to be as fast as possible, so do not hold back to save energy for later rounds. KB Swings should be unbroken every round if possible.

You do not need to stand all the way up when you jump over the bar for the burpees. This WOD Rx’d is designed to be in the 7-10 min range for elite/advanced & 11-15+ for intermediate/novice.

Weighted Front Rack Walking Lunges 3×8 (Heavy as possible)

Conditioning

15 Wall Balls 20/14lb
*3 Box Jumps 36/27″ @ the top of every minute
—Rest 5 minutes when finished then:
Air Dyne: 3 Minutes for total calories/distance

WOD Notes: The 3×8 (working sets) for the lunges should be near an 8RM. You will do a few warm-up sets before that at a lighter weight as you build up to the working sets. Scaling for rope climbs are 5 up/downs or 10 burpees. Box jumps are supposed to high so pick a height that won’t scare you too much, but will challenge you.

6/26/2013 – WOD

Strength
12 Min To Work up to a Heavy 1RM Squat Clean

Conditioning
10 Rounds
3 Power Cleans (80% of 1RM)
200m Row
—Rest 1 Minute between rounds

WOD Notes: This is an anaerobic threshold WOD where each round is to be all out! You may take a few extra seconds rest between rounds to recover so you can maintain the intensity. Score is the total time minus rest time, so if you rest 1 minute each round you would subtract 9 minutes from your total time. Focus on pulling yourself under the bar (receive bar in quarter squat with hips back) instead of trying to muscle the bar up.

Welcome Missy!

6/25/2013 – WOD

Strength
Shoulder Press 1×5 (70%), 1×3 (80%), 1×2 (85%), 2×1 (Find 1RM), 2×3 (85%)

Conditioning
15 Min AMRAP
5 HSPU 7/4″ Deficit
10 Burpees
15 KB Swings 70/53lb

WOD Notes: Rx’d for the HSPU is 3 45’s on each side of an Ab Mat. You may scale the HSPU by lowering the deficit or 5 Push Presses at 60% of your 1RM. Yes, this WOD is very shoulder intensive so do the best you can with being as efficient as possible with each movement (kip HSPU, snake the burpees, use hips on KB Swings).

6/24/2013 – WOD

Back Squat 1×5 (75%), 1×3 (85%), 3×1 (90-100%), 2×3 (85%)

Conditioning

6 Strict Chest To Bar Pull-ups
250m Run

WOD Notes: Weight for the WOD should be 60% of your 1RM. Racks will not be allowed unless you absolutely need one. No kipping is allowed for the pull-ups so choose a band that will challenge you for all 6 reps each round. Scaling is chin over bar.
