Skill/Strength
Power Clean - After instruction from the coach leading the class, you are allowed (from an empty bar) no more than six increases in weight. You may also only complete 2-4 reps per set in any of those six weight increases (no 1RM). Max time limit: 18 minutes.
Conditioning
As many rounds as possible in 10 minutes of:
10-9-8-7-6-5-4-3-2-1 reps each of:
DB Hang Squat Cleans, 50#/35#
Kipping Handstand Push ups
Prescribed handstand push up are only to be performed using a kip. If scaling, use any of the methods performed during last week's skill session. The DB handle must pass below the knee joint prior to any squat clean rep.

A huge congratulations to Scott and Jen (Feyerherm) Wehner on their recent marriage. God Bless.
I worked with Gina and we did 2-2-2-2-2. I did 99,114,126,141, and 153.
Gina did awesome (131#) when she thought she wouldn't get past 121#.
This is probably the best that heavier cleans have been for me in that I didn't let my feet get out wide when catching the clean, and it didn't feel heavy.
Metcon:
4 rounds plus 5 hang squat cleans Rx'd. I did sets of 3 and 2 on HSPU's until round of 7 when they were all singles.
Great job 6 a.m.!
Metcon = 8 rounds @ 40# DB & knees HSPU.
Nice work 6am.
did 5 sets of 3 PCs: 198, 198, 198, 203, 208.
10-9-8-7 on the metcon. I wrote rx'ed on the board, but it wasn't. I used 50# DBs and did HSPU with my feet on a box. Tough. Inadequate range of motion. Will do better next time.
7rds (10.....4)with 20#DB and used feet on box thru round 5 then went to knees. Fun one!
Great work 5am!
Made it through 7 DB squat cleans and 1 HSPU. Did the first 10 HSPU rx'd, then split them on the box. Should have scaled smarter!
Great job, 6am!
Made it through 3 reps on the set of 8 for the Kipping HSPU's. I scaled on the DB Hang Squat Cleans to 40#. The HSPU's took a lot of time still working on my balance.
Did 5 sets of 2 with PC. Went 174/198/208/218/223. Form on the last one wasn't the greatest, but was a 3# jump over my 1RM, so I'll take it but will keep working the landing better. Thanks for keeping me honest Amanda!
Got through 6 rounds of the metcon using 50# db for the hang squat cleans and went off my toes on the box as there was no kip in my HSPUs today.
Got through the round of 6 reps on the METCON. Scaled to 45# DBs and toes on the box for HSPU. Used to think I was too strong to use the box for HSPU, but those really aren't easy.
2 meals into the nutrition challenge. Excited to see how this works. All I know is that I need to do something different from what I have been. Maybe this will do the trick.

got thru 7 KHSPU's on round of 9. used 25# DB's. burned out fast on hand stands and ultimately should have just scaled to a box. lesson learned.
great job 9am!
On a more important note:
Movember is getting bigger and bigger as we speak. We are having numerous clients walking in the door with some great looking staches and well I applaud you! Its a mature classy look and anyone can pull it off.
Josh Z, Dane L, Dustin T, Danny P, Garret P (I think I saw one on him today), Bob S, and Angie H (our solo Mo sista so far). If I missed anyone I apologize please correct me if I did. Get involved and what a better way to have an excuse to grow a mustache!
We will be throwing a party at the end of the month, you still have time to promote men's health!
Worked with Joe H (firefighter) on the power cleans and hit 240x2. Very happy with this as I believe that my previous 1rm was 231.
Met con was rough, but I was excited to see kipping HSPU. I got to the last rep of 2 HSPUs when time ran out, so 107 reps. Nice start to the week.
83 reps on the metcon. HSPU's felt pretty good but I really struggled with the dumbell cleans.
Remember mo bros; grow it, nurture it, respect it!
We just got back from Mexico and have been tying up some loose ends. Back to the work grind tomorrow and i look forward to seeing everyone at the gym:)
JFey...or should i say JWeh now :)
110 x3 for cleans. My goal was yellows, so I can't be upset. However, I'd like to think I should have gotten more weight.
Got through all the 6's and through 5 DB cleans with 20# and scaled HSPU to a box. I really want to get a HSPU by our honeymoon on 1/2/12. I suppose struggling through a wod with them is the best way to get there...
Had a blast in class last night.
Scaled HSPU to Box w/ knees and 25#DB's for hang cleans. Made it to 5 hang cleans for the round of 7.
