Today we will meet at Shea Stadium for an awesome WOD. Come one, come all - rain or shine! Trot on down and meet up at 0540, ready to rock for 20 minutes of track torture!
Tabata Track -
Sprint 10 seconds, rest in place 20 seconds x 8 rounds (4 minutes total)
REST 2 MINUTES (return to start point)
Sprint 20 seconds, rest in place 10 seconds x 8 rounds (4 minutes total)
REST 2 MINUTES (return to start point)
Sprint 30 seconds, rest in place 30 seconds x 8 rounds (8 minutes total)
NOTE: For each set of 8 rounds, record your total distance covered - make sure you rest in place (don't walk or jog forward), that way at the end of 8 rounds, you can simply see how far you've gone and that is your 'score' for each set. Return to the start point after each set of 8 rounds, so it is easy to keep track of your distance.
Post total distance for all sets to comments.

Welcome back from the weekend. Today's WOD is a bit different, but should be a good one.
You pick the load, but you should use the same load for the entire round. At the end of the round you should try to increase the load.
3 rounds for time:
15 x deadlift
10 x power cleans
5 x push press
Rest 1 minute & change weight as needed.
NOTE: choose your load smartly & if you realize it is too much, then you can certainly lighten the load during the round if needed.

AMRAP 9
12 x front squat (135/95)
12 x burpee-pull-ups (jump to the middle bar or a bar approximately 8" - 12" beyond your reach)
NOTE: The intent of this WOD is to go a bit heavy. Scale as needed, but if you find yourself blowing through the front squats without much effort, then bump up the weight a bit.
NOTE2: Weight starts from the ground - no racks.
NOTE3: Using the rack is a smart scaling option if you can't clean the weight.

Today's WOD is a beast and gives you a chance to compare your current level of fitness with last semester. Try to push yourself just a little bit harder and go a little bit longer. You will likely not have time to complete today's WOD as rx'd before you have to punch out for morning formation, so do as much as you can before you hit the time when you have to leave.
