Second time hitting our Clean & Jerk complex for this cycle.  Again, each rep of this complex will consist of a Power Clean (catching the bar above parallel) and a Front Squat (going from legs locked out to hip crease below the knee, back to lockout), and a Split Jerk (driving ourselves under the bar as fast as possible).  Like we said last week, the goal is more efficiency in each piece, and putting them back together at the end when we re-test our Oly 1RM at the end of the cycle.

WOD:

Complete as Many Reps as Possible in 2 minutes for each exercise.

Take 90 seconds rest between one exercise to the next.

 

Ab-mat Sit-ups

Devil’s Press (50/35)

Box Jumps (24″/20″)

Thruster (95/65)

Pullups

 

Score each section separately

Think of this as 5 mini WODs, with only one movement per WOD.  The goal is to get as many reps as you can within two minutes.  Now, that does not mean you need to go unbroken the whole time.  The smart move would be, once you start feeling fatigue, stop, shake out the body, and re-attack the movement!
