Reminder: don't bring knee up to catch 115# bar. OUCH!

WOD
Power Clean
3-3-3-3-3 (unbroken)
THEN
4 Rounds:
25 Overhead Squats (95/65)
75 Double Unders

RESULTS
115# (f@3)
scaled: 50 DUs, 55#
20 min cap - went to 20 mins and finished with 3 rounds + 25 OHS + 36 DU

ANALYSIS
SO CLOSE. I really wanted to finish and with 10 more seconds I could have.  Oh well. I scaled down my DUs and was pretty successfully stringing 10 at a time.  But DUs are definitely where I lost time. Need to be able to string 20 at a time - this is less about the skill of doing DUs, and almost all about building lung capacity.  OHS squats were fine. I did the first set unbroken. Probably should have pushed to do the OHS rx'd - 10 more lbs might have slowed me down a minute, but not too much.  I finished the first two sets in 8 minutes... what happened in sets 3 and 4? I think I was resting a lot - met cons are tough for me. Not surprising the lift portion was the "easier" portion.

Sets of 3 cleans were fine. My form on the last set sucked which is why I failed at 3 - and of course, thats the one set Noah was watching.  Form on my other sets was pretty darn good.  I prefer a full squat clean - either way, I do love the clean :)
