C&J, dips, 800m

3 rounds:
9 clean & jerks (95#)
21 parallette dips
800 m run

Time: 20:21

Had a hard time stringing together the c&j's. Substituted the parallette dips for 15 ring dips. Running felt slow!

Jack (abbreviated)

20 min AMRAP
10 push presses (75#)
10 KB swings (20 kg)
10 box jumps (20")

I finished 7 rounds in 16 minutes. The push press was the hardest - hard on my wrists, and I was worried about losing lower back form.
