WOD: Back Squat:5 reps @ 30% of 1RM5 reps @ 45% of 1RM5 reps @ 60% of 1RM20 reps @ 70% of 1RM While this is very phsyical, it is probably more of a mental test than anything. Be mentally strong and know you are going to get through the squats. You should go until you hit 20 reps or until you fail. AQAP:100 Burpees For results post weight used for 20 Rep Back Squat, and time for 100 Burpees Post results/thoughts to comments Mental fortitude was the name of the game today. Great work tearing up the Burpees and pushing through the Back Squats. It was so awesome to see you all work through the mental fight that both these things were. Gotta show you guys that I do actually train haha, so an old video of me doing 100 Burpees below. Sorry…

WOD: 5 sets of:3 Push PressRest 60 seconds3 Clean PullsRest 60 seconds Warm-up accordingly so that you are working at heavy weights for your 5 sets. You are welcome to change weights each set as needed. Work as heavy as possible on the Push Press. For the Clean Pulls use at least 100% of your 1RM Clean, or more. Don’t go so heavy on the Clean Pulls that the movement starts to slow down, there should still be some speed and explosiveness, it shouldn’t be a Deadlift with a shrug.“Elizabeth”-21-15-19 AQAP:Squat Cleans 135/95Ring Dips For results post all working sets of Push Press and Clean Pulls.

I think we have upwards of 30 people coming down to cheer us on which is so awesome.

So with that being said a few things for you guys to take note of. – If you ordered shirts, they should…
