CrossFit – Fri, Mar 20

CrossFit Republic – CrossFit

Daily Strength W.O.D. – 15 Minutes (5 Rounds for weight)

Every 3 Minutes on the 3 Minutes Complete the Following Complex…

1 Hang Power Clean + 1 Hang Squat Clean + 1 Squat Clean

Log all 5 sets.

Intended Stimulus

This is a technical strength complex designed to improve clean mechanics, receiving positions, and confidence under the bar.

Each variation builds on the previous one:

Hang power clean → finish the pull and receive high

Hang squat clean → move under the bar with speed

Squat clean → execute the full lift from the floor

The goal is to build to a moderately heavy, technically sound complex , not to max out.

Loading Guidance

Start light and build across sets

Increase only if all three reps stay clean

The squat clean should be the limiting factor

You should finish the workout at a weight that feels heavy but still allows strong positions.

Execution Notes

Do not rush between reps

Reset your feet and grip if needed

Finish the pull completely before moving under the bar

Catch in a stable front rack every time

Each rep should look intentional, not fast and sloppy.

Timing Expectation

Each set should take 15–25 seconds .

Use the remaining time to rest, adjust weight, and prepare for the next set.

The clock is there to give you recovery, not to rush the lift.

Big Picture

This complex builds:

Clean timing and coordination

Confidence in the catch

Strength through multiple receiving positions

Quality reps now lead to heavier, cleaner lifts later.

Daily Conditioning Team W.O.D. – 12 Minutes (Time)

Teams of 2 Splitting Reps However Desired

For Time…

30 Power Cleans (155/105)

30 Front Squats (155/105)

60 Calorie Row (Men and Women)

30 Front Squats (155/105)

30 Power Cleans (155/105)

Intended Stimulus

This is a high-power, moderate-duration team workout built around heavy barbell cycling and a shared engine effort.

The barbell load should feel moderately heavy, forcing short sets and smart switching. The row sits in the middle to elevate heart rate before returning to the same barbell work under fatigue.

The goal is to move with urgency while keeping reps clean and repeatable.

With a 12-minute cap, this should feel like a hard push from start to finish , not a slow grind.

Time Expectation

Fast teams: 7–9 minutes

On pace teams: 9–11 minutes

Cap range: close to 12 minutes

If one athlete is doing very large sets early, the second half will slow down.

Strategy Notes

Power Cleans

Quick singles or small sets are best

Avoid burning grip early

Front Squats

Stay tall in the rack

Short, repeatable sets

Switch before failure

Row

Smooth and strong, not a sprint

Switch often to keep power high

Team Strategy

Switch early and often

Have the next athlete ready before the bar drops

Communicate before every transition

This workout is won by fast transitions and smart rep management , not hero sets.

Big Picture

This workout trains:

Heavy barbell cycling under fatigue

Team pacing and communication

The ability to repeat effort after heart rate spikes

Stay organized, keep moving, and finish strong.
