10 Lateral Hops Over Your Bar

Use a weight that you think you can always do 5-5-5 but will NOT be fun or easy.
Score: Total Number of Completed Rounds + Any Additional Reps
Goal: 9 Rounds +
NOTES:
Ok then.
So for this one you will want to pick a weight that you will always try to do the 5 hang power cleans + 5 push press (or a jerk is ok too) + 5 back squats without purtting the bar down. BUT - not something that will be easy to do that with the whole time.
Your first round should take you between 30 seconds to 1 min. Check the clock to make sure you have scaled properly. Feel free to go heavier than the written RX+ weight if you are just a beast.
For the hang power clean you will deadlift the bar to the "hang" position at the hips with straight arms. Hands just outside of the legs and feet under the hips. Bend the knees and keep the heels down. Allow a slight hinge at the hips. Keep arms straight and bar close to the body. Stand up hard and fast. Shrug the shoulders. Pull elbows high and outside to keep the bar close as you pull yourself down under it. Shoot elbows around and through FAST to allow bar to land on the shoulders with the elbows high. You will catch in a partial front squat with heels down, knees out, chest up. Stand to complete the rep and then lower bar back to the hips for the next rep.
For the push press you will have your bar on the shoulders with the elbows high. Feet are between hip and shoulder width apart. Chest up. Belly tight. Dip keeping the heels down and allowing the knees to come forward. Reach the hips back slightly but keep the chest lifted.
Stand up hard and fast. Pop the barbell off of the shoulders and finish with a press straight to lock out. Biceps by the ears. Standing tall. Locked out elbows. Belly tight.
The bar will be on the back. The feet should be shoulder width apart. Heels down. Raise the chest and tighten the belly. Reach the butt back and down and drive the knees out. Get the butt lower than the knees at the bottom. No collapsing or rounding the back at the bottom! Drive through the heels, lead with the chest, keep the belly tight to stand.
