Second time hitting our new Clean Complex this cycle.  To recap, one rep will consist of 1 Clean Pull, 1Power Clean, and a Low Hang (right below the knee) Squat Clean.  As stated before, you’ll have three distinct hip extensions in this complex.  First one helps reinforce keeping the arms straight until the pull is done, the second gets you used to fast elbows to catch the bar, and the third you’ll look to DROP fast into the bottom of the squat to receive the bar.

WOD:

12 Min AMRAP:

10 Dual DB (50/35) Step Ups (24″/20″)

5 Devil’s Press (50/35)

Best way to maintain a good pace on both movements will be only resting when transitioning from one movement to the next. Can you make it to the round of 20  Devil’s Press or beyond?

Second chance to hit the Split Jerk this cycle.  Really focus on driving yourself UNDER the bar rather than pressing the bar UP.

WOD:

Every 4 Min for 4 Rounds:

18/14 Cal Echo Bike

12/10 Cal Ski Erg

Score = Slowest Round

Video courtesy of Dark Horse Rowing.

Today you have a choice. Go all-out on both the bike and ski erg to get done with each round as fast as possible so you get more rest time, or find a fast pace you can maintain without dying towards the end on both.  In option one, the first round may be one heck of a score, but if you blew all your energy too soon, you may see a BIG drop in time in the later rounds, and remember, your score is your slowest round.  In option 2, you may not hit a land-speed record, but the pace will likely not drop too much from one round to the next.  What do you choose?

Scaling Options:

Echo Bike -> 25/20 Cal Row

Cool Down:

Couch Stretch – 1 Min Per side

Banded OH Distraction – 1 Min per side

Then…

On Rig: Perform 5 reps of: Scap Pull Ups, Beat Swings, Kip Swings, Strict Pull Ups or Ring Row, Kipping Pull Ups or Ring Row

S/S/S:

Every 2 Min for 10 Min:

10 DB Renegade Rows*

Athlete chooses weight.  Can move up every set or stay the same.

*1 rep= push up + row left arm + push up + row right arm

Video courtesy of Functional Bodybuilding.

Taking a little time to work some push/pull prior to the WOD. As stated above, one rep = 1 push up + row left arm, 1 push up + row right arm. During the rows, keep your hips as square as possible (don’t let the body twist).

WOD:

18-15-12-9-6-3*:

Burpee to Kipping Pull Ups

*50’ Dual KB Front Rack Lunge (55/35) After Each Round

Videos courtesy of OPEX Athletics.

Best advice I can give is find a steady pace in the burpee to kipping pull ups. There is no real way to sprint through these, but the smoother your transition from one piece to the next, the less energy you’ll waste.

Scaling Options:

Burpee to Kipping Pull Up -> Burpee to Jumping Pull Up (beyond reach) -> Burpee to Jumping Pull Up (bar even w/middle of forearm) (ELITE: Bar Muscle Ups)

Second time hitting our deficit deadlifts this cycle. With the sets dropping to just 3, the goal is go with heavier weight per set than you did on the 5X5 week.  Maybe start set 1 around the weight you did set 3 or 4 last time.
