8 rounds for time;
10 clap push ups
10 db hang squat clean - 45#/h
post time to comments
stand up completely with hips fully extended before placing weights at hang
no worming on push ups - chest to deck, let's hear that clap
14:09 - cleans were straight through but I had to resort to singles on the PU's after 2 rounds.

ReplyDelete- A tad sloppy near the end I feel, need to shorten my breaks. This was tough.
Awesome job on 300+ yesterday Sweeny.
11:04
ReplyDeletegreat job on the squats boys. 300 Sweeny is amazing. I now have a new goal
17:36 -I may have done 9 rounds- it was a little fuzzy
ReplyDeletePU's were smooth and straight through for most rounds
first time touching a DB since may
using DB's for the squat cleans was defintely tough
20:17 (but I only had 40# DB's)
ReplyDelete9:42 - All push-ups were 5/2/2/1 after round 2; cleans unbroken but paced, they could have been a litter faster but I was breathing heavy by round 3. Frickin' smoked after that one.
ReplyDeleteWow, looking at the times, it looks difficult. Geoff it looks like you set the bar today.
ReplyDeleteOh and great job yesterday Sweeny, your an animal!
11:33
ReplyDeletePush-ups went 10,10,10,10,5/5,5/3/2,5/2/2/1,5/2/2/1
Only had 40# DB's to use.
Happy with the legs output today, that is where I fight my mind battles the most.
Nice job Gord and Geoff
18:27- Squat cleans were hard still need lots of work.
ReplyDeleteOops... I mis-read and did hang power clean... dammit! 8:21
ReplyDeletemissing this one as unfortunately both movements painful on the old elbow. It had been feeling pretty good until the snatch workout from last cycle. Back to treatment tomorrow.
ReplyDeleteDid CFC wod instead.
Trevor, you know I love you, but you gotta do something about that picture of you. It's just about the creepiest picture I've ever seen. You look like someone just walked in on you doing... uhhh... you know...
ReplyDeleteMessage to Corson, my son frickin' loves that Thomas the Train set. He's going bonkers for it! Thanks man!
time 9:47
ReplyDeleteaiming for 1 min per round but couldn't keep it up.
long recovery after this workout
Time: 11:42
ReplyDeleteVery humbling workout. The clapping pushups were brutal. They chopped me down tonight. Driving out of the squats onthe cleans was not an issue tonight.
12:40
ReplyDeletegood point G
ReplyDeleteDoing the squat workout from yesterday
ReplyDelete315x3 345x3 355x3
365x2 375x2 385x2
395x1 405x1 405x1 415x1 405xfail
I ran out of gas on the last rep of one. The 415 just took it all out of me.
9:32 as rx'd.
ReplyDeleteClap push-ups were terribly hard. Only one round clean, then usually 4 fractions per set.
Tried twice to perform this WOD today, but I blew my brains out yesterday and strained a quad. No go.
ReplyDeleteOff to Tower Physio >:o(
17:43
ReplyDeleteI was hating life during but loving it after. Awesome workout.
Rx'd: 11:53
ReplyDeleteI'm done... Upcoming rest day is definitely needed.

slow day at the hall today Geoff?
ReplyDeletegood thing I have lots of time on my hands. Interesting video.
15:18
ReplyDeleteDB hpc were slow, but consistent.Getting the wts into the proper position on the shoulders was key for a good rep each time.
Push ups were broken early.
11:40
ReplyDelete*subbed 115lb Barbell HSC for 45#/h DB HSC *
Clapping pushups hard after round 3, resorted to sets of 2 for last 5 rounds, hands made contact on all reps, some claps were weak.
I was very happy with the HSC, first 5 rounds unbroken and last 3 rounds broke into 6-4 with a short break. Felt very strong coming out of the hole on the HSC, happy with that. Maybe yesterdays ass to ankles squats turned on the postior chain for this wod.
