Followed by…

Two sets of:
Front squat x 5 reps @ 2210
Rest as needed

Followed by…

Two sets of:
1+1/4 Front Squat x 5 reps
Rest as needed

A.
Every two minutes, for 16 minutes (8 sets):
2 Front Squats + Split Jerk
(pause at receiving position of split jerk for 1-2 seconds before recovering)

*Sets 1-2 – 70-75% of 1-RM Clean & Jerk
*Sets 3-4 – 75-80%
*Sets 5-6 – 80-85%
*Sets 7-8 – 85-90%

B.
Every 3 minutes, for 18 minutes (6 sets):
20/15 Calories of Assault Bike
6 Bar Muscle-Ups
3 Ground to Overhead

Your MUST finish each set under 120 seconds, and the ground to overhead should take up 15-29 seconds of that time. Your goal will be to determine how much you can lift for three reps in that time domain. In other words, what can you manage (with good mechanics) under fatigue? Males may want to start around 225 lbs and build from there each set; females might start around 155 lbs.

C.
Strict Overhead Press
* Set 1 – 5 reps @ 50%
* Set 2 – 5 reps @ 60%
