A.
Every 2 minutes, for 20 minutes (10 sets):
1 Clean Lift-Off + Clean
Build over the course of the 10 sets to something heavy. A Clean Lift-Off is the first portion of the clean, from the ground to the knees. Keep your torso angle consistent through all phases of this lift-off, and pause 2-seconds at the knees each lift-off. After your lift-off, reset and perform a full clean.

A. 35-115 failed 120 a few times…today was not a good day for cleaning!!
B. 9:10
PC @ 105#
Fairly happy with this time since I had to run in my lifters which always slows me down.
I did better on this one then I expected.
A. Worked from 65 – 135 failed it a couple times, then got it on round 9 failed on round 10. Could have gotten it with a few more tries, but wanted something left for the METCON.
B. PC @105#
9:39
Pretty happy with this, I was thinking I would be closer to 15 min.
Home after 12 hour shift. Only completed B.
B. Hang powers (baby asleep and couldn’t drop or rebound)

17.1: scaled or RX’d? the ego debate begins
Did you scale the snatches on Tuesday?
I used 20 kgs on tuesday, mostly because I wanted to save some energy but those burpees seem to be metabolic killers; but I haven’t really used 50 lbs DB to do anything. Also scaled seems deceptively easy “Men use 35-lb. dumbbell and 20-in. box, step-ups OK”
20kgs is almost Rx for 17.1, you can do it!
1 rep Rx ranks higher than 225 scaled on the leader board … just saying.
The race is on brother, looks like beating that time cap is going to be a struggle.
I do want to fight for that 299999 spot ?
17.1: I guess it’s a good thing I did 100 db snatches 2 days ago….. wow. Gonna be a grind.
I can not wait for this one tomorrow morning!!!! My kind of WOD! Cheers to the AM!!
I can’t get judged until the afternoon so I’m hoping you give me something to shoot for.
Good luck bro!! Get after it and don’t stop moving!
A. Went up to 195 still learning the squat clean
B. Did partner 45-30-15 #185bench #65 thruster toes to bar also did 100 team pull ups for time 2:05
Once you learn it you’ll hit big numbers with your deadlift strength.
A. Started from 155lbs up to 205f
B. 12:53
subbed run for 400row and scale down the last 10 PC to 155lbs, couldnt get 185lbs above the knees haha
A. 115/135/145/155/165/175/185/195/205/220f
215 is my PR so thought I’d try 220. Slow getting down. 225 next time tho…
B. Scaled to 155# 9:25. Singles in PC, 10/10 PU, 18/12 WB both sets.
Doing 17.1 Monday. Off to the Mardi Gras weekend for me. Good luck everyone!!
In Nola? I hate the parades, wife and kids love them though… might get dragged to Endymion Saturday if I get out of work early enough.
Yea – we live on the northshore (Hammond area) and have a big crew that goes down every year. Going Fri & Sat night. I’m good for a couple days at most.
Metairie here. Small world
Wow – that is crazy. I work in Metairie next to Heritage Plaza.

Once again work is getting in the way of my workout schedule..I’m a couple days behind
Tuesday’s work out 2-21-17
A. Deadlift 115-205# (215# base)
B. 4 rounds + 45 reps RX
10 x T2B, 20 x BJ @ 20″, 30 x Alt S Arm DB Snatches
Since the weather in Corning NY is so beautiful I ended with
10 tire flips
100 hammer swings
As far as scaling the power cleans, should this be “heavy but manageable”? I am usually about 20# under the RX weight. My 1RM is 140 for PC and 125 is VERY heavy for reps.
I think it should be a challenging but manageable weight; my 1RM is 180 so I went with 135 for the reps as I can move that for 10 reps in a minute or so
Kept it light and focused on good reps in light of the open tomorrow.
A. Did (hang squat clean + squat clean) up to 225
B. Rx 9:12, saving the dark place time for tomorrow.
I like how you start with “kept it light” and then say 225 XD
Ha yeah, I can say that for cleans, snatch is another story… seriously though, stay with it. I never thought I’d see the day I could stand up 225. You’ll get there!
This is where u totally light me up!
Worked up to 225
B) 12:25 RX

Ball: 6kg
Time: 15:54
Congrats on the PR
Not certain what 17.1 will be but figured today might be a little heavy in prepartion for tomorrow – elected for an extra hour of sleep and a coffee with my misses. Open Thursdays have arrived.
I hope it’s Cindy even tho I know that won’t be the case thrusters and burpees for the win! Good luck bro
I had the same idea as you. This one looked pretty rough for pre-17.1 —- rest day!
tomorrow is full strategy day for us in my box because 17.1 will be judged on saturday; we’ll just drink coffee, do some mobility, talk about rx and scaled strategies and think why nature didn’t allow us to be fit just by eating doughnuts
Agreed.
This is my ” I can’t even type” post
