Every 2 minutes for 6 minutes

Then every 2 minutes for 6 minutes

  • 1 x Power Clean
  • 3 x Jerk Press

Then Crossfit New England’s Double Boat Grace, 6 rounds for time

  • 500 Meter Row
  • 10 x Power Clean and Jerk @ 75% of final weight from above

Rest 1 minute between rounds.

Results: Got up to 125lbs for the Clean and Jerk, so used 95lbs for the metcon…31:22 including rests. First round went out very hot 1:50 row all 10 reps unbroken, probably too much. The rest of the rounds settled into a 2:00-2:06 row and 5-3-2 rep scheme on the C&J. Seemed like a nice pace.
