2. Barbell Conditioning
EMOMx8:
Minutes 1-4: 3 Snatches (115)
Minutes 5-8: 5 Clean and Jerks (115)

Notes: HSPU were tough. Completed each wave in 2 sets -- experiment with smaller sets and less rest, i.e. set of 18 (3X6 with :10 rest). Barbell cycling called for 135lbs, but my shoulders were smoked and I doubted my ability to get the bar overhead on snatches at that weight.
