I can't believe I attempted this...and finished it. Did it a few months ago at 95# and..that extra 40# is a killer.

nice job that killer WOD, Jason. I still haven't done that one!
So how are you feeling without the Diet Pepsi. I feel TERRIBLE! I'm still not convinced that it's all THAT bad for me. Just like a junkie....

Thanks! I'm kind of cheating. I officially became a coffee drinker on Tuesday. I've just heard too many bad stories about diet pop...And George Mounce said coffee is ok so I guess it is!! Plus coffee packs a whallop of caffeine and antioxidants and is mostly water anyway so it's almost a health food!

That workout has been a mental issue for me...I went to a cert in VA beach in July and the instructors did that...I came back and about a month later tried it at 95# and it almost killed me...today's was tougher at 135# but I just feel better knowing I did it I guess.

Had to think of something to do at globo today so I thought HEY! I haven't done Bear Complex in a while!!!

What an idiot...

7 Reps of
Power Clean
Front Squat
Push Press
Back Squat
Push Press

5 rounds for weight. Only touch and go - no resting the bar on the ground.

65, 85, 105, 115, 125 - miss

Made it 6 reps then on the 6th after the Front Squat I lost it...dropped the barbell and that was it. What a tough workout.

It was also very good to have a few days off...I hadn't realized that I had gone fairly hard 9/10 days. Be careful!!

Re: JD's CrossFit Chronicle
 

Regarding above post...I failed on the 7th rep...not 6th.
