Power clean followed immediately by five front squats. *Start light and add weight.
I got my inspiration for this WOD from Mainsite today. I would have done this WOD with snatches and overhead squats, but I did Isabel earlier today.
I liked this one. I was blasting Bob Dylan and Dave Matthews, which is fast becoming my music of choice whilst lifting. At the end of the WOD, my legs were completely toast, so I wasn't surprised that I didn't get a new 5rm. It actually turned a crappy Crossfit day into a good one.
It showed up at the Games, it was on Mainsite, there's no avoiding it.

I really don't like this WOD. I really don't. I spent two days psyching my self up for it, and made sure I had witnesses, but I destroyed my last time by over 30 seconds! Yup! I'm now sub 2:30.
I still had a hard time recovering, but I think the burpee challenge helped me with the recovery. Go figure.
This was supposed to be my rest day, but It didn't (and never seems to) work out that way. I decided to do the main site.

I've never done this actual WOD before. It wasn't bad, and I really don't know why I haven't done it before. See, there ARE benefits for occasionally following the main site!
