In honor of Navy Lieutenant Michael McGreevy, 30, of Portville, NY, who was killed in Afghanistan June 28, 2015.

With heavy hearts we offer our prayers and condolences to his wife, Laura, and 14-month-old daughter, Molly.

The price of freedom, and its worth, is found in Michael’s passing. The debt owed to Michael and his family can never be repaid but only honored by remembering Michael and remaining free * If all GHDs are taken, you can sub 50 good mornings with an empty bar on your back (45/35)

MOVEMENT STANDARDS
DUMBBELL SNATCHES
The dumbbell snatch starts with the dumbbell on the ground and finishes with the dumbbell
directly overhead. At the bottom of the movement, BOTH heads of the dumbbell must touch the ground. The dumbbell must be
lifted overhead in one motion. Touch-and-go is permitted. Bouncing the dumbbell is not allowed. Athletes must alternate arms after each repetition and may not alternate until a successful rep is achieved. The non-lifting hand and arm may not be in contact with the body during the repetition.
At the top, the arms, hips, and knees must be fully locked out with the dumbbell clearly over the middle of the athlete’s body when viewed from profile. Once the athlete has reached lockout, the repetition will count. The athlete may choose to do a split style snatch. However, both feet must return and be in line under the athlete’s body while the dumbbell is locked out overhead for the repetition to count.
BURPEE BOX JUMP-OVER
The burpee box jump-over starts with the athlete facing the box while touching their chest and thighs to the ground, and finishes with the athlete jumping over the box. In the bottom position, to ensure the athlete remains perpendicular to the box on each rep, the center of the athlete’s chest must be on the line, and the feet and hands must be straddling the line.
There is no requirement to stand tall while on top of the box. A two-foot takeoff is always required, and only the athlete’s feet may touch the box. The athlete may jump on top of the box using a two-foot landing and then jump or step off to the other side, or the athlete may jump completely over the box. If jumping over the box, the feet must go over the box, not around it, and the athlete must use a two-foot landing.
Each rep is counted when the athlete lands on the ground on the opposite side, where they may begin their next rep.

Every second counts in this workout. The athlete’s score will be the time it takes to complete all 225 repetitions. Time will be recorded in full seconds. Do not round up. If the athlete finishes in 10:32.7, their score is 10:32. There is a 20-minute time cap. If they do not finish all 225 reps before the time cap, their score will be the number of reps completed.

TIEBREAK

If all 225 reps are completed before the time cap, there is no tiebreaker for this workout. If all 225 reps are NOT completed within the 20-minute time cap, your score will be the total number of reps completed, with ties being broken by the time of completion of your last full set of burpee box jump-overs. At the end of each set of burpee box jump-overs, time should be marked and recorded for score submission. In the case where two athletes have completed the same number of reps, the athlete with the lower tiebreak time will be ranked higher.

Note: All tiebreak times must be reported in elapsed time, not in time remaining. If you are using a countdown timer, you must convert to elapsed time before reporting your score. For this reason, it is recommended you set your clock to count up.

Scaling Options:

Same reps, but men use 35# DB, and Women use a 20# DB.

Also, for scaled, Box Step ups are allowed.

WOD:

“Bear Complex”

Without stopping or dropping the bar, complete the following sequence, seven times:

Power Clean

Front Squat

Push Press (have bar land behind head, in rear-rack position)

Back Squat

Behind the Neck Push-Press (have bar land on chest, in front-rack position).

Video courtesy of CrossFit HQ.

As mentioned above, 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.
