Conditioning
4 rounds, each for time of:
20 1-Arm DB Hang Power Snatch, 50#/35#
20 Goblet Squats, 50#/35#
10 Slapping Push-ups

A new round starts every 3 minutes. When you finish the round, record how much time is left until the next round starts (then rest until the start of the next round). If you do not finish the round before the 3 minutes is up, finish that round and then move directly into the next round - you will then complete as many rounds as possible until the 12 minute mark.

Compare to 2015.08.06.


Finale
Accumulate 2:00 working on an L-sit or a static handstand.

Barb deadlifts 147.5 lbs for a set of 5. How did (and does) Barb get strong? She squats, deadlifts, benches, presses, and power cleans a couple times per week. How did she learn how to do all this? Through Starting Strength and from a Starting Strength Coach. Do you want to get stronger, healthier, and generally just be a far more capable person? Join us October 14-16 when the Starting Strength crew comes to town for Omaha's first Starting Strength Seminar. It will change your life...because it will change YOU. Check it out at http://startingstrength.com. Do you know someone who would benefit from getting stronger? Please share this with them (Facebook, Instagram, etc.)! #startingstrength #strongishealthy #getstrong
