Workout notes

Today we have a higher volume, long duration workout with a total of one mile running and one hundred and fifty dumbbell power cleans.  The cleans are presented with an ascending rep scheme so we’re increasing the difficulty as you get deeper into the workout.  With a rep scheme like this you will want to make sure you have a dumbbell where the first couple of round are fairly easy.  A set of ten or even twenty should be doable.  Most of us will break up the sets as the workout progresses but that should be a strategic choice and not because you have chosen a weight that is too heavy.
