TUESDAY 151110

Workout of the Day
“Gwen”
Clean & Jerk 15*-12*- and 9* reps
*Touch and go at floor only. Even a re-grip off the floor is a foul. No dumping. Use same load for each set. Rest as needed between sets. This WOD is NOT FOR TIME!

If the you foul on any set at the chosen load, you must retry the entire WOD with a reduced weight to qualify as having completed it. Example: If you complete 15 reps unbroken at 65#, but then cannot complete the second 12-rep set unbroken, you cannot just reduce for that round and retry it; you must reduce the load, for instance, to 55# and start again at the set of 15. Choose wisely!

Clean and Jerk (135 lbs*)

*135# is the eventual goal. Right now athletes will be using a weight with which he can complete all 30 reps in under 5:00. The time cap is 6:00. If the athlete surpasses the time cap, the weight will be lowered by 10# the following week. Once a sub-5:00 time is achieved, the athlete will, the following week, increase his Grace weight by 10# and continue to strive for a sub-5:00. 10# increases are only allowed after passing this 5:00 threshold. No one shall ever mark “Rx” until reaching 135#.
