Each year in the United States Navy, a highly qualified and elite cadre of Sailors are selected and promoted to the join the ranks of Chief Petty Officer. Since 1893, "The Chiefs" have been relied upon by subordinates and superiors alike for their personal example, technical expertise and above all, their unique leadership capabilities. It is these CPO's that this workout is in honor of.
WOD
THE CHIEF
3 Power Cleans 135/95
6 Push-ups
9 Squats
AMRAP - 3 minutes
1 minute rest - 4 rounds
Well I started with 80lbs and on the second round on the third set of Power cleans I dropped the 80lbs bar into my chest. It hurt like h*ll. I dropped the weight to 75 and carried on. It was the first time I did more than one or two cleans at 80lbs so I was happy. Next step is trying 85lbs - even just for one and then going from there. I have to get to the RX95lbs eventually. :) I'm a long way from where I started and having trouble with cleaning 50lbs.....Gotta be a little impressed with myself....:)
