At “3,2,1..Go!” hit 20 American KB Swings, then 8 box jumps, then 19 KB Swings, the 30 Dubs, then 18 KBS, then 8 box jumps, then 17 KBS, then 30 dubs, etc.… With this descending ladder, start with a conservative pace in the KB Swings.  This will allow you to stay at a good rate through either the box jumps or double unders.  As the reps on the KB Swings go down, then pick up the pace, but not too much.  Realize in this one, you are hitting 10 sets of box jumps and 10 sets of dubs.

Our Clean Complex this cycle will consist of 1 Clean Pull into 1 Power Clean, followed by a Low Hang Squat Clean.  The Clean Pull will get us used to using leg drive to move the weight. The Power Clean will get you used to pulling the bar high and beginning to pull yourself under. The Hang Squat Clean will put those pieces together while also getting you used to keeping tension in the low hang (right below the knee).

Nice little “up and down the mountain” chipper for today.  Would suggest fast singles on the Power Snatch today over going all touch and go.  Maybe save that for the last 10, but for the first and middle 10, conserve some energy to get through the cardio pieces.
