Metcon suck!


21, 18, 15, 12 and 9 rep rounds of:
95 pound Deadlift
95 pound Hang power clean
95 pound Front squat
95 pound Push jerk

26:00

ab twist: 100 x 17.5
SU x 200
DU: 4 x 30
SU x 200

Was going to do the new named WOD "Jeremy" but decided to redo this one with the full rep scheme. I could definitely feel my lower back from yesterday's DL's and PC's. Ugh indeed. Not a happy camper. Daric on the other hand crushed this with a 22:49. Very nice, dry heaves and all!

heard you mention it before but, what is metcon?

"Metcon" is short for metabolic conditioning. Basically any of the high intensity WODs done for time or AMRAP (as many rounds as possible) are considered metcon WODs. All the named WODs are metcon, verses the low rep / high weight WODs for developing maximal strength and explosive power.

Nice pic and great job on the workout that one sucked. I was sore for 3 days after it!
