This has nothing to do with the WOD today, but while looking for a good image for the thruster it popped up and I thought it was awesome. Enjoy!
SWOD:
Barbell Thruster 1rm. Compare to 7.30.10.
Metcon:
"The Bear"
One rep of "The Bear" is:
- Power Clean
- Front Squat
- Push Press
- Back Squat
- Push Press (from behind the head)
Complete AMRAP of "The Bear" in 10:00. Use 95/65 for rx'd, but if you're feeling it try for more!
WOD Tips:
For the SWOD, this is a front squat into a push press for max weight. Make the two lifts blend into one for optimal efficiency. You can take these from the rack rather than cleaning them into place for the strength work.
For the metcon, try and use the rx'd weight if you can handle it with good form. The five lifts should blend seamlessly into one another. This will allow you to do more reps in less time, and therefore generate more intensity.
