“The Bear Complex”

7 Sets of the sequence:

Power clean
Front squat
Push press
Back Squat
Push press
5 Rounds

Increase the weight with each round. Barbell cannot rest on the ground, it is "touch and go", in other words a fluid series of movements. You can rest between rounds.

My rounds:
1. 50#
2. 60 #
3. 70#

4. 80#
5. 90# - PR!!!!!!!!

Went into this thinking 85 was my past PR. Looking back on my CF journal, I actually failed at 80, so 75 was my max - that was on October 22, 2008 and it went like this:

1. 45 lbs
2. 65 lbs
3. 70 lbs
4. 75 lbs* failed on 3rd rep, had to start this set over. Completed it on second attempt.
5. 80 lbs* failed on 4th rep, set bar down. Started again on 4, had to set bar down on 5th rep. Did not re-start completely, but did a full 7 reps. This is considered a failure so my max weight today was 75 lbs.


....and 33 burpees
