Location: CHS
Time: 10:30 a.m.

For time:
30 reps Squat Clean and Jerk, 155#/105#

You may move from the squat clean straight through to the jerk in one fluid movement (essentially turning the movement into a squat clean-thruster) - faster, but harder. Finish with arms, hips, and knees fully extended with feet underneath your shoulders (so if you split jerk, you must bring your feet back under your shoulders) and head between arms. Dropping the barbell is acceptable.

Rest several minutes.

For time:
6 Down-backs
25 Double-Unders
4 Down-backs
50 Double-Unders
2 Down-backs
75 Double-Unders

A Down-back is a sprint from one baseline to the other and back again (i.e., you finish where you started).

Compare to 07/09/08. The squat clean and jerk WOD was one of the events at the 2008 CrossFit Games.

Thoughts:
1. Over a minute faster than the last time I did it. Good. All reps except one were squat clean and thrusters, whereas last time all reps except one were not squat clean and thrusters, so that's also good. I had to apply tape 3 times during this workout (twice because I'm dumb), so I could have been even faster, so that's also good (sort of).

2. Whoop-dee-doo. I know I could have done this faster. Overall, I think I'm just not that impressed with my effort on this one.
