Bear Complex III

Redid the Bear Complex again. Last time I did it was in 2015 and before that in 2014.

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, not putting the bar down until all 7 sets are done).

7 sets of the following series of movements:

  • Hanging Clean
  • Front Squat
  • Push Press
  • Back Squat
  • Push Press

Results: Unfortunately could only manage 110lbs/50kg again, so no improvement on my 2015 efforts :-(.   Progression was 65/95/110/115(failed in set 5)/115.  For the last two rounds broke the sets into 5+2 then 4+2+1.
