  • 20 minutes of 2 reps on the minute of Bear Complex odd minute, 4 high box jumps even minute Workout

    For 20 minutes:
    Odd Minute: 2 ronds of Bear Complex (squat clean, PP, Back Squat, PP) - I did this as you could do each round seperately, putting the bar down and doing it again after a short break as long as it's all within the minute. I did use chaulk and taped my thumbs.

    Even Minute: 4 high box jumps (around 40")

    For Bear complex I started with
    95 lbs for 1 round
    115 lbs for 1 round
    125 lbs for 2 rounds
    130 lbs for the rest of the rounds
    No belt or wrist wraps. Felt like I could have gone heavier, but didn't want to get hurt before the OC Md. Trip coming up.

  • The Bear Complex Workout

    The Bear Complex

    No time component, goal is max load by last round. Movements can be combined ( ie, full clean to thruster) etc. Can also split jerk, push jerk as long as movements are completed….full hip extension, full extension of the press etc. Take rest as needed between rounds. No dropping of the bar even to reset the hands.

    5 rounds of 7 sets of the following movements:

    Power clean
    Front squat
    Push press
    Back squat
    Push press

    Movements may be combined. Ex. Start with squat clean, and go straight up with barbell overhead(performing a thruster). This combination would take you through the first 3 of 5 movements.

    55-60-65-80 (i couldn't finish the last round of 7 unbroken)

  • Civilian Military Combine 2013 - 7 Min AMRAP 7 PP 75 lbs, 7 KB swings 40 lbs, 7 Burrpee Box Jumps 20" Workout

    I did this one, and it was my 5th WOD for the week. I was a bit tired and it was during lunch at mid-city gym. It was totally Rx sinec they have a real 20" box, and a good 10 lb bumper plates so it was more legit. Also of course they have KBs. I estimated it to be 20 kg, but not positive... it could have been heavier, but confident it was at least 20.
    Good WOD. I got a few less than 7 complete rounds in 7 minutes. I finished off the 7th round in a few seconds past 7 mintues.
    I would say I probably got about 144.
    I still think I can do more than 7 now. I was tired and not overly intense and almost got 7. It's a good WOD.

    Last time I did this WOD: 4/21/13 I got 126 reps.
    7 Min AMRAP 7 PP 75 lbs, 7 KB swings 44 lbs, 7 Burrpee Box Jumps 20"
    I completed 6 complete rounds in 7 minutes.
    This was fun, and I was pretty good at the burpee box jumps which I was thinking would really tax me. I did the box jumps laterally and it wasn't too bad.
    The KB swings were really easy actually.
    The PPs got a little tiring actually.

  • 7 rounds of: 3 MUs + 7 Thrusters with 95 lbs Workout

    7 rounds of:
    3 MU
    7 Thrusters with 95 lbs

    As Rx: 7:04
    I wanted to go unbroken for all 7 sets and to push the pace to go under 10 minutes. I did wrap my wrists and across my palms like when I do a lot of MUs and my right thumb to prevent any tearing and to provide a little wrist support.
    I was feeling drained warming up.
    As I got into it, I realized i was not really staying vertical on my thrusters and so I started doing my sets closer to the wall to ensure that i kept more upright and to keep the bar more in a rack position, to use my legs more. I knew that the couplet would tax my shoulders and triceps so I wanted to let my legs do most of the work adn explode through the thrusters.
    Went well overall.
    Good fast WOD
