WOD
Clean 5, 4, 3, 2, 1-1-1-1 reps
Post weights to comments/Logwod.
Six attemps, 3 for the snatch and 3 for the clean and jerk. The movements are very similar save for the wider grip for snatch and narrower grip for clean, as well as the receiving position on the body for both lifts.
Watch the video as each attempt is also shown in slow motion from an advantageous view. Replay it many times, especially the clean, in slow motion, as you can learn much.
Annie Variation as my second workout of the day (Monday)

Great Job to those brave souls that came in this morning!!
*Jeremy Knott got a PR because he used hook grip*
One word of advice: Don't let the little details escape you in the warm up when it's light, it will come back to bite you when it's heavy.
I'm back after a week vacation! Good to be back. Back to single digits and snow. Ahh, winter in Nebraska.
3 sets of 20 consecutive box jumps: 24", 24+1 red, 24+2 reds (that got tough!)
then 3x
75 yd farmer carry (2 pood KBs)
10 strict pullups
Nice change of pace...I know it won't last.
Thanks to Gina for encouraging me to make the jump.
If you don't think doing regular strength workouts don't make a difference, think again. (I'm not scared to throw out a double negative sentence either! It makes sense to me!)
If you watch the video before you come in take note on two things;
1 - They finish their pull
2 - They pull themselves underneath the bar
Your going to hear me say get as high as you can, so the bar can travel as high as it can. The get yourself underneath the bar! Both have to be emphasized!
Good luck everyone and see yall tonight!
Box jumps - 3x20 consecutive
20", 24", 24" + yellow
Could have gone a little higher and squeaked them out, but that last set was fun-challenging.
3 rds:
100ft farmer carry (1.5 pood)
7 strict pullups
3:54ish, I think (timed it on the regular clock, and it was hard to tell what minute I started on)
Carries felt easy and short, pullups went to one at a time the 2nd and 3rd rounds, but felt solid.
Did my HSPU practice (making myself do at least 3 attempts every day) - got 3 strict in a row! Then one more plus a baby-kip. I think the pullups helped get the shoulders warmed up.
