We did this workout a few months ago and I missed it.  This is an excellent opportunity to get some burpees in for you #cfo100 crew. This workout is like a perfect storm of things I suck at.  I totally plan on doing this 20 minute triplet.  Unless something important comes up.  Like a late meeting…or a phone call…or I need to return videotapes…or I have root canal…or jury duty…or drive my in-laws to San Francisco…in rush hour… Workout of the Day AMRAP 20 20 Calorie Row 20 Burpees 20 Alternating DB Snatch 50/35

On the back squat- be conservative. They are fairly large sets, and just like the deadlifts, we will be doing this for a few weeks.

If you are setting up well, with your hips low and your chest up, you are probably in a position to Clean the bar – even if it’s pretty darn heavy. That doesn’t mean you should be afraid of moving big weight.  If it feels good, you are keeping the bar close and moving the bar fast, load it up. We are going to work on this over the next 6 weeks, so you will get plenty of chances to work on...
