Coach Meriah
(11AM) 12 of us including Cookie, Charlie, Tom, Bob, Dan,
Steve C, and me
Warm Up
~750m Row
followed by 4 rounds of Plank Hold, Superman, Hold at Bottom of Squat (20
seconds work/ 10 seconds rest)
WOD
20 min:
Front squat
to a box (box set to parallel with normal foot stance). Work up to several
heavy singles.
Dan and I
worked out together warming up with 45#, 95#, 115# and 135# before heavy
singles at 155#, 165# and finally 175#.
Pat pointed out to reach back more with butt and keep shins vertical.
then
AMRAP 12,
alternating each exercise with a partner:
7 Deadlift
7 Hang power
clean
7 Front
squat
L3 – 135/95
L2 – 115/75
L1 – 95/65
Dan and I
partnered up and he talked me up to L2. He
started with deadlifts, then I did the hang power cleans, then he did front
squats, then I did deadlifts. We
completed 3 + 28 rounds with me finishing with deadlifts. This was a tough workout and my form was
really off for the hang power cleans.
Ben gave me the best tip of pushing my butt towards the back wall when receiving
the clean in a quarter squat. That got
my back more upright instead of hyperextending with my hips forward.
