Workout of the Day
Benchmark 2/5
“Grace”
30 Clean & Jerks for time
Advanced load is 135lbs for men, 95lbs for the ladies
This test has a lot to it… are you powerful enough to handle the rx’d (which are relatively light) weights? How does your coordination hold together by the 20th rep? Do you experience any stamina (muscle fatigue) issues? Breathing issues anyone?
This workout is a walk in the park if the weight is not adequate (coaches will try to limit access to the park). On the other hand it will crush you if you get too ambitious (coaches will try to prevent any one from being crushed). Try several different options in your warm-up.

First WOD back CFW since October, and it wooped me! 4:23 RX’D and a coughing fit on the drive home. Looking forward to doing WODS again

Here’s a quick read that’s worth checking out:

Went really light on the weight as I wasn’t sure how much my shoulder can handle – especially after yesterday’s wod. Used 35# and to prevent that walk in the park, coach B had me do squat clean and jerks. Finished in 3:49. Whatever that wod didn’t take out of me in the arms/shoulders, my physiotherapy session did!
Nice picture Madeline! I hope to look like you soon!

And thanks so much to my cheering squad, sub 10 would not have been possible without Brad and the rest of the awesome CF crew
