There Will Be Sweat

Probably some blood too. No tears though. Never tears.

Dumbbell Bear

I started by working on some OHS after a quick warmup and got up to 135lb x 3. I felt pretty solid today. Then, I made my second attmempt at the dreaded “Dumbbell Bear” complex.

Every minute on the minute for 20 minutes perform the following:

  • 5 Deadlifts
  • 5 Hang Cleans
  • 5 Thrusters

Load shold equal 45% of bodyweight, so I used 40lb dumbbells. Chuffed to complete this as rxed. Didn’t even drop the weights until I finished each circuit. I managed to finish each one in just about 30 sec, giving me 30 sec to rest. What an asskicker. Next time: 45lbers.
