Workout of the Day
Double death by
EMOM for 24 minutes
(odd) 2 power cleans
(even) 2 push jerks
add 2 reps to each movement every 2 minutes. Start over at 2 if you fail any round
Are you up for a challenge today? We’ll be on an EMOM clock for this workout . You’ll start by completing two power cleans in the first minute and two push jerks in the second minute. Minute three will be four power cleans and minute four will be four push jerks. You’ll continue climbing in this way until you can no longer complete the prescribed amount of work in the minute. If you can’t make it through one of the minutes you will start over at two and build back up again for the remaining minutes. If you make it all the way through you would be finishing twenty four power cleans and twenty four push jerks in minutes twenty three and twenty four. Consider the push jerks when you are selecting your barbell weight for the day. Make sure you can complete a good amount of push jerk reps unbroken with the weight you choose. Focusing on the tougher lift of the two when choosing your weight will ensure that you end up with a manageable weight for both lifts. Your score for today’s workout will be whatever round you complete successfully plus any extra reps in the round you didn’t make.

CFD at home:
Today’s workout can be done with a dumbbell, kettlebell or barbell. Depending on the weight you have at home you may have a good chance of making it all the way through the twenty four minutes of work without having to restart. If you have a dumbbell or kettlebell you can do alternating cleans and then for the jerks you’ll want to switch between arms however you want but do your best to keep things as even as possible. Your score for today’s workout will be whatever round you complete successfully plus any extra reps in the round you didn’t make. See you on the leaderboard!
