Bear Complex Revisited

Comments Off on Bear Complex Revisited

Redid the Bear Complex which I did almost one year ago (see Bear Complex). Happy to say I improved.

Complete 5 rounds of the following. Record max weight in the round where you are able to do a complete set unbroken (aka 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: Max weight was 50kg (3rd round). Weight progression: 30kg – 40kg – 50kg – 45kg – 40kg.  Since the point is to do it unbroken, I reduced the weight after the third round so that all rounds would go unbroken.  2 – 4 minutes rest between round.  Each round got to max HR of 174!

Spend 10 minutes working on overhead squats and related mobility.

For time do:

  • 30 x Hanging Power Snatch @ 30kg

Then not for time perform 3 rounds of:

  • 8 x Bench Press @ 73kg

Then EMOM for 8 minutes do 10/50 L-Sit.

Results:  Kind of a random day.  Started with the plan to do Overhead Squats and Snatches but my OHS are so bad I gave up on that.  Snatches in 2:32.  Could only do 7 Bench Press in the last round though.
