CrossFit WOD: Benchmark "DT" pain.

I heard of this WOD from the owner of Rogue Fitness, Graham Holmberg (look out for him at the Regional this year!!!), who I worked out with back in December. "DT" is a benchmark WOD, which I did not know. One word to describe this workout is pain.

The workout consists of the following:
155 pound Deadlift, 12 reps
155 pound Hang power clean, 9 reps
155 pound Push jerk, 6 reps

x 5 rounds for time.

I've been doing skill work all week and I'm sore from the squat cleans, power cleans, and pushups that I've been doing for the challenge. My body is taking a beating and this just made it worse.

My time was 16:51 and I was very happy. SO TIRED!!!

Heading back to Ohio on Saturday so I'll make it my rest day.

Best,
Tyler

    This actually made it on the mainsite as one of last week's WODs...I really wanted to give it a shot but didn't want to mess w/ my current program. I'd have to drop down to 135 though, and it'd still be rough. :) Nice work!

    I saw that Cody. After I did it, I realized it was up on the main site. Probably why my buddy did it too! hah! I never look at the main site - I should though.
