This is a blog to track my progress in Crossfit.

Cardiorespiratory endurance, stamina, strength, power, speed,
flexibility, agility, accuracy, balance, and coordination: you're as good as
your weakest link.

WOD

“Shark Complex”
5 rounds for load of:

3 Power Snatches
6 OH Squats
9 Power Cleans
12 Front Squats
15 Deadlifts

*25 min to complete all 5 rounds, rest as needed between sets
*score = weight on bar
*round ends when the bar rests on the ground (a la the “Bear Complex”)
*named after Mason’s favorite animal


I used 45#. Did two rounds at the prescribed rep scheme (subbing back squats for OHSes due to wrist issues). Then did two rounds at 2, 4, 6, 8, 10 reps and doing hang power snatches and hang power cleans instead of full ones. :)

Then I did 50 26# KB swings for the 10,000 KB swing challenge. Russian-style.
