Announcements - this morning we will meet in the 3rd floor weight room.  Please try to arrive as early as possible so we can claim some space.  It is also a partner WOD, so find someone of near equal size and strength. 

Equipment required - barbell with appropriate weight & towel

Warm-up and instruction - immediately upon arrival start your personal warm-up.  Matt and I will walk around and provide instruction and coaching for the thruster.  Additionally, I will take folks on a quick jog of the running route.

WOD -

Partner Thruster Ladder

AMRAP 15
Person A - max reps of Thrusters (45 lbs.) until Person B returns
Person B - run 200 meters (3rd floor weight room to wall past Stairway to Heaven)
Switch roles and after each person has done both roles, add  weight (10/5 lbs.) to each side.

NOTE:  Keep a running total of thrusters complete.
NOTE2:  Scale as needed -  both men and women start out using the 45 lbs. bar and each round men will add a total of 20 lbs. and women add a total of 10 lbs. 

Post partner's name, total reps completed, and number of rounds complete (add associated load).

Did the WOD with Hunter.
Ended up between 110-120 reps total.

4 1/2 rounds... I only got up to 115 with the weight, though. Thrusters got pretty tough towards the end.

Worked with R.K. We got 122 reps at 45,65,85,105,125lbs. Great workout! I love it when we are able to combine weights with a some good cardio. Keeps the intensity up!

Matt and I partnered up and hit 175 reps as rx'd. We ended at 4.5 rounds complete @ 125 lbs. (which was pretty darn heavy!)

That one got tough, really quickly! Always a good gut check - drink water everyone!!
