Emmaline gets overhead
WOD #4 is a little bit different. Please read the instructions carefully.
You will have the entire class to establish a 3 Rep Max in the Clean and Jerk. This means you can use as many sets as needed to establish your 3 Rep Max. You can go once, then go home. Or you can go every minute on the minute. The truth is, you are learning how your bodies respond, so see how you feel. 3 minutes between sets is a good place to start.
Your 3 rep Max must be established in a 40 second period. When you are ready to lift, inform a coach, and they will begin a timer once you initiate your first clean. You must get the weight overhead 3 times in 40 seconds. You may drop the weight each time (in fact, I recommend you do). The highest load for a 3 Rep Max wins.
The next challenge will be Monday, and will consist of 2 scored events. I’ll give you a hint: since we are testing short, explosive strength on Thursday, expect a longer duration event on Monday.
