WOD 6.6.19
Every 4 Minutes for 5 Rounds:
12/9 Calorie Bike
8 Burpees
4 Power Clean and Push Jerks 185/125
Move fast to get to the barbell, which should be medium-heavy for you. Heavy enough to likely do as “quick” bailed singles. Aim for consistent finish times.
Post times for each round and Rx to comments.

Still looking for CrossFit gym recommendations in Seattle.
Today’s Wod took a small bit of my soul. 2:06/2:33 at 135#s
I love the croquet article so very much. Thank you.
8am with Chris and Tori
Metcon Rx 1:55 (fastest) / 2:26 (slowest)
This got REALLY SPICY, as the rest got smaller and smaller. The C&J got better as the rounds went on, as the jerk got more solid with more leg drive. The AB was all around :26s-:30s. The burpees got slower, as did the intervals between C&J reps. Doing this touch-and-go is unimaginable for me. Super fun workout, that’s in my (very small) wheelhouse (AB + C&J!).
Just saw this from Elly in yesterday’s comments:
“Some of the best restaurant and brewery recommendations we’ve gotten when traveling have been from dropping in and meeting cool people at CrossFit gyms. So cool to be able to drop into a gym almost anywhere and have both an interest and a language (T2B, HSPU, HPC, etc) in common with the folks there.”
So true! If you’re in Amsterdam, try Cafe Loetje. That was a reco from the AKA coach and it was awesome.
12pm class
