Viola
AMRAP in 20 minutes: Finished 4 Rounds
400 meter Run
11 Power Snatches (95/65 lb)
17 Pull-Ups
13 Power Cleans (95/65 lb)
I really liked this workout, although it was just a little bit painful! Lol! I haven't done snatches in quite some time so I was glad to ease in with these light ones. I deliberately broke them up to save my grip a little bit.
All pull-ups unbroken
All power cleans unbroken EXCEPT I accidentally did 11 of those as well instead of 13 :/
Honored as always...
