Bear Complex V then Front Squats and Situps

Doing the Bear Complex again. Last time was in June of 2018 and got up to 115lbs.

Complete 5 rounds of the following. Record max weight in the round where you are able to do a complete set unbroken (in other words, do not put the bar down, touch and go on the power clean until all 7 sets are done).

7 sets of the following series of movements:

  • Power Clean
  • Front Squat
  • Push Press
  • Back Squat
  • Push Press

Then 3 sets of

  • 5 x Front Squat

Then 3 sets of

Results: Got the 115lbs again, but just barely, so decided to stick at 115lbs for the rest of the rounds, breaking as needed. 65-95-115(Rx)-115 (4+3 reps)-115lbs(3+2+2 reps). Front Squats 135-155-165lbs.

RFE Split Squat and Rows then Row, DUs and KBS

3 rounds alternating sets, complete all reps with one leg then switch to other leg

  • 5 x Rear Foot Elevated Split Squat (aka Bulgarian Squat) @ 95lbs
  • 5 x Bent Rows (with foot still on Bench) @ 95lbs
  • Switch to other leg, rest as needed between legs and sets
