Bear Complex IV

Redoing the Bear Complex again. Last time was almost exactly one year ago, July 24, 2017 and my best was 110lbs/50kg.

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:

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

Cash out: Row 1000m

Results:  65-95-110-115-120(3).  Finally got 115lbs, even if I did stop for an extra breath or two at the bottom of the set. Row in 4:40.

Overhead Squats and Toes to Bar then Pike Press and Russian Twists

Then EMOM for 10 minutes

  • 2 x Overhead Squats

Then for time do 21-18-15-12-9-6-3 of

  • Overhead Squats @ 45lbs (empty bar)
  • Toes to Bar

Not for time

  • 30 x TRX Pike Press
  • 30 x Russian Twists (over/back = 1 rep) @ 10kg

Results: For the first part worked up to 65lbs.  Metcon in 14:11, Overhead Squats were not as hard as I thought they would be… did the first round of 21 unbroken. Next time need to go heavier. I remember the day when one empty bar OHS was impossible!
