Revelations 13:11,13…
11 Then I saw a second beast, coming out of the earth. It had two horns like a lamb, but it spoke like a dragon… 13 And it performed great signs and wonders, even causing fire to come down from heaven to the earth in full view of the people.
WOD 140909:
BBG
1) 5X1 Clean from blocks (just above knee) – work to a heavy but perfect single for the day (preferably no misses), rest as needed
2) 5X1 Jerk from blocks – work to a heavy but perfect single for the day (preferably no misses), rest as needed
BB Cycling/Midline
1a) 3+1X5 Touch & Go Cleans (full) – three sets to work to a 5rm (see note for explanation of +1), rest 2:00
Note: The +1 set is an additional ME UB set @ 80% of the 5rm established in the first three sets. The goal is as many T&G reps as possible – with perfect technique – before dropping the bar. The +1 notation will be used throughout this cycle.
1b) 3X1:30 ME Strict Muscle-Ups – rest 2:00
Conditioning
4 rounds for total working time of:
Row 500m
20 KB Swings 32/24kg
Rest 1:1
Should there be rest in there or just 4 rounds for time? I am assuming it should be work:rest 1:1
I watched that entire bromo commentary and didn’t even get to see the lift at real speed.

M/31/175?
1) 195, 225, 245, 255(+10 frmo blocks ever, PR tie from anywhere), 265 under but cannot stand. I was at parallel for about 5 seconds…
2) 195, 225, 245, 265 (PR tie), 285 (+20!) what a morning. This was a great feeling. I have 300 in me, it’ll happen within a month or two. Wish I could clean it…
Junkin – If you haven’t already purchased straps, here is a quick and easy way to make them. Cost is about $5. I have had mine for a year now. Only thing I have had to replace is the tape on the end…just a thought

I bought them yesterday around 11. I’ll have them today.
I use the hook grip straps and love them. They are thin enough where it doesn’t really wreck my grip but still real durable.

I’ve already got the beard, chest hair, and those exact shoes. I guess starting today I just won’t tie my shoes any more. That should work right?
