Today’s CrossFit Alloy WOD is all barbell work. Be ready.
CrossFit Alloy WOD for 2/23/2015:
Strength:
Clean and Jerk
1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1
MetCon:
Double Bear Complex
3, 3, 3, 3, 3, 3, 3
Note: If the regular Bear Complex is a deadlift, hang power clean, front squat, shoulder press, back squats, shoulder press; then a double bear complex is two deadlifts, two hang power cleans, two front squats, and so on. The regular Bear Complex is 7 sets of 7 complexes per set. The double bear complex will be 7 sets of 3 complexes per set. So, each time you pick up the bar during the double bear complex, you will go through two deadlifts, two hang power cleans, and so on 3 times. The goal of the double bear complex is to find the max weight you can do without letting the bar come to rest on the ground. This can get confusing, so make sure you ask questions during the workout review.
