Every 2 minutes for 15 minutes, Front Squats

  • 5 @ 55%
  • 5 @ 65%
  • 3 @ 75%
  • 2 @ 85%
  • 2 @ 95%

Then for time (Street Parking WOD from April 26)

  • 75 x Squat Cleans @ 95lbs
  • EMOM stop and do 2 x Handstand Pushups

Time Cap 15 minutes.

Results:  Front Squats 115-135-155-185-205lbs.  For the metcon ended up with only 62 reps after the 15 minutes so I guess the 95lbs was too heavy.  Great workout
