Repeat of the classic Bear Complex. Last time was in January of 2020.

Complete 5 rounds of the following for max weight in the last round (in other words, not putting the bar down until all sets are done).

7 sets of:

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

Results: Got up to 115lbs last time. This time 85-95-105-105-115lbs. Those were hard rounds… not sure my final 2 presses were fully locked out but will take it.
