VolkeFit: Power Cleans and Burpees

My life is an endless parade of pre-Halloween candy.  Like Miley Cyrus, I can't stop.  I won't stop.

Warm-up

4 sets of 4 deadhang pull-ups

3 sets of 10 70lb bell swings (shoulder height)


Workout

15-12-9 of
Power cleans
Burpees (strict)

Rest 10 minutes.

15-12-9 of
Power cleans
Burpees (strict)


First round was 4:57.    At the start, I planned to divide the sets of cleans into thirds (5-5-5, 4-4-4, 3-3-3-3)  but hubris took over and I did a set of 8 at the start, which was too much and then made it harder than it should have been.

Second round was 4:55   I did a better job of keeping the power cleans limited to small, reasonable mini-sets.  Mostly because I was tired.
