For Time:
20 Power Snatches 155/105
5 Burpees every minute on the minute, starting at 0:00
The Power Snatch can be on the heavy-ish side today. However, you should still be able to do at least 3-5 reps per minute on the slow end.
9:58
Notes: Used 135lb. for the workout, which in hindsight was too heavy. That is 90% of my max and I wasn't able to get anymore than 4 reps in a single set. Should have scaled down to 115-125lb with the goal of finishing sub-5:00 minutes.

Deadlift 10-5-3-1-1-1-3-5-10 reps
Start with a PVC, move to an empty barbell and increase the load over the course of several warm-up sets. All working sets should be challenging, but with good mechanics. Between 60-70%, 80-85%, and 90-95% of a recent 1-rep max is a good goal for the first set of 10, 5, and 3. Try for a new 1-rep max on the second single and see how close you can get to your first sets on the second time through the 3, 5, and 10 rep sets.

21-15-9 reps of:
225/155 pound Deadlift
135/95 pound Overhead squat
Post time to comments.
Notes: Workout was done at No Excuses. Use one bar and change your own plates.
6:59 with 125lb. deadlift and 95lb. OHS.
Plan was use prescribed women's weights, but due to plate selection (only wanting to remove one plate between exercises) I scaled deadlift to 125lb. Should have scaled up on deadlift to 165lb (green plates on inside and yellow on outside). This was a good workout though -- deadlifts went easy and were all UB. I broke OHS on 21's into two sets, but 15's and 9's were UB.

Crossfit Team Series 2016 Event #5
For time:
50 wall-ball shots
50 deadlifts, 185/135-lb.
50 handstand push-ups
Each time you break a set of wall-ball shots or handstand push-ups, deadlift the barbell and hold it at your waist for 15 seconds before returning to the ball or wall.
16:46
Notes: Used women's RX'd weight for deadlifts. Due to layout at Y, I held 55lb DB in each hand when wall balls or handstands were broken. Went 30/20 on wall balls and 13/10/9/9/9 on HSPU. Shoulders were still fried from Saturday. Fresh, I think these could be done with fewer breaks.

Complete as many rounds as possible in 25 minutes of:
25-lb.single-arm dumbbell overhead lunges, 25 steps
Row 25 calories
25-lb.weighted sit-ups, 25 reps
4 Full + (17) lunges
Notes: During the overhead lunges focus on maintaining an active shoulder by pushing up into the dumbbell. Make sure to keep the elbow extended. Alternate arms as needed. Full range of motion is trailing knee touching the floor at the bottom and full extension of the knees, hips, and arm at the top. It is not necessary to pause with the feet together. During the row ensure that each stroke begins by driving with the legs, then lean back slightly, and follow through by pulling with the arms. To return straighten the arms first, then lean forward slightly, and finally bend the legs back to the start position. During the sit-up, anchor the feet and hold the dumbbell on the chest.
