Today's WOD: Rest Day!

12 July's WOD:
"5 rounds for time"
9 barbell hang squat cleans
3 rope climbs (legless)

DNF. In 29:59 I completed: 2 rounds as rx'd, the 3rd round using my legs on the rope climbs, and rounds 4 and 5 with only 1 rope climb per round. Simply one of the toughest workouts I've done in awhile! My grip was gone after two rounds! I scaled the squat cleans down to 115 lbs, and they became the easy part. I will be back for this WOD again... with heavier weight and all the rope climbs legless!
