A. EMOM: 1 Snatch attempt for 12 min.  Weight on the bar cannot decrease.

B. Strict Bar Dips – not on rings (3 challenging sets: sum total reps)

C. 5 min AMRAP:

7 DL (225/155)

21 u/b DU *sub 21 ‘mini jumps’.

Rest 2 min

3 min AMRAP:

    Hey everyone who is reading the WOD, it’s ok to make comments (nobody will make you do burpees)! (Or even post up your weights and times!)

      Ya it’s been quiet in these parts! Foots is always religious about it, so it doesn’t help she’s away.

      HAPPY BIRTHDAY MISTY!

          Great. Now I’m having PTSD flashbacks to biochem. I’m going to have to eat a cookie to make it stop.

    C. 4+4 (jumps), then 14 DUs. (Rx DLs)

    The Mob was fun this morning — lots of new faces.

      a month ago, Liz was all like, “OK, I want a chinup”. I think I put her up to a 9/1/13 target date (which at the time I thought was slightly aggressive but definitely doable)

      It’s not magic, folks. Just hard work!

      Congrats Liz!
