    If you’ve never done a dumbbell hang split snatch before (and you probably haven’t), please review the video I linked above (http://performancemenu.com/exercises/exercise.php?exerciseID=306). While your instructor will undoubtedly review the movement before the WOD starts, it doesn’t hurt to familiarize yourself with the movement before class.

    In place of rope climbs, we’ll be doing the usual subs of towel pull-ups (BYOT) and/or one-ring ring pull-ups. Thanks.

    Well I guess I’ll need to work on my dumbbell hang split snatch (WTF?)…that shit was downright insane. Lots of alternating limbs…snatch with this one, split with the other one forward, recover with the front foot first, alternate shoulders on the rope climb. Sub 15 pulls for each climb. I’ve finally witnessed the shattering of my mental morning threshold.

    Hero WODs are tough. For me this one was tougher than most.

    Good luck everyone.

    I didn’t get a chance to post this yesterday…

    Very good class with Avery:

    Power Cleans
    115 – 135 – 155 – 175 – 185(PR) – 205F – 195F

    This was my first time doing heavy cleans since before Kevin/Avery/Nicole’s clean and jerk clinic. My PR before the clinic was 125.
