WODS:
WOD1: “2012 CrossFit Games Clean ladder”
There will be barbells set up around the gym with ascending weights, starting with 115/55 for men and women then ending in 255/185. You will have 20 seconds at each barbell to complete ONE squat clean. After your first attempt at the clean, whether you succeed or fail, you may also start deadlifting the barbell. You may skip the deadlifts and take multiple attempts at the clean, if you fail your first. Each complete deadlift will add 0.1 lbs to your last completed clean weight. There is a 10 second transition time to the next station. You do not rotate to the next barbell until you hear the word “ROTATE”, and you do not lift until you hear the word “LIFT”
WOD 2: “You want me to do what?”
Run a 5K for time
WOD 3: “The Roaring 20’s”
READ CAREFULLY: 8 Stages to each Round. Score will be kept as “Stage 3, 15 cal row” or “Stage 4 19 T2B” or in the event a competitor gets through all 8 stages, they will start over with stage 1 and their score will be “1 Round, Stage 4: 2 Wall Balls” etc
