Back Squats and Overhead Squats

Today we did some squatting.

WOD (15 reps):

  • 1 power clean
  • 1 push jerk
  • 1 back squat (lower the bar on to your back from the jerk position)
  • 1 push jerk (get the bar back over your head)
  • 1 over head squat
After the over head squat you can lower the bar to your back and back squat again, returning to the over head squat position. If not, dump the weight and begin with the power clean. Prescribed weight is body weight. I wasn't able to get to ~180 lbs, so I stuck with 155 lbs.
