Video courtesy of Nick Garcia.  50 Cals in 25 seconds.  Giving you a goal to shoot for…just kidding…please don’t kill yourself today.  That said, today, the goal is to try to hit that red line to tackle a couple very-doable pieces in this WOD.  The reason I say go to red line is, you have built-in rest in here, so finish either the bike or the strict press/toe2bar couplet piece as fast as you can so you can hit that recovery piece and then do it all over again in round 2! And yes, the 3 min of rest after the bike IS walking rest, meaning I want you to walk, not fast, but keep the legs moving during those three minutes. If you stop moving, your legs will not like you much…

Increase weight each Round – Score = Heaviest Load

Compare to 12Feb2019

Video courtesy of CrossFit One World. One rep of the Bear complex consists of a Power Clean, a Front Squat, a Push Press, a Back Squat, and a Behind the Neck Push Press. The kicker is, you cannot let go of the bar during a set (7 reps). When you go from back push press of one rep to the power clean of the next rep, the bar can only touch and go off the ground. Also, the clean and the front squat cannot be combined. You must fully open the hips at the finish of the power clean before starting your front squat. But, you are allowed to combine the Front Squat and Push Press into a Thrusters. Same goes for the Back Squat and BTN Push Press into a Back Thruster. Obviously, this is going to be rough to hold onto for 7 reps, so find rest spots where you can. I would suggest if you need a breather during a round, do it when the bar is on your back for the back squat. You will do a total of 5 sets of 7 reps. Rest as much between sets, and increase weight each set.

Cool Down:

Roll out glutes, inner thigh, quads, and hamstrings (10 passes per body part)
