You want sore?
1 Dbl Clean to 1 Dbl Front Squat
2 Dbl Cleans to 2 Dbl Front Squats
3 Dble Cleans to 3 Dble Front Squats...
Up to ten is the goal. Don't put the bells down. The record is finishing four (4 plus 4).
Off you go now...get the 10's with the 32s and get back to me on my next hard idea.
I'll be waiting...

Yeah well, how many pull-ups can you do tough guy?
...Four. ...w. the 1.5 pood. This will be my "work your weakness" thing for a while.

Sounds like a good complement to the 2, 3, 5, 10 Dbl KB Press workout. This is doubtless harder than it looks.
For "N Dbl Cleans to N Dbl Front Squats", do we do 1 Dbl Clean followed by 1 Dbl Front Squat, repeating N times without a pause, then rest in the rack position before proceeding with the N+1 set?

Do the walking alternate kettlebell press as an active rest. Cool down with the two kettlebell swings. Finish with dying.

Yes, it is harder than it looks.
No putting down the bells - the only rest is in the rack position.

Sure, go ahead and make them think it's easy to rest in the rack position.

I tried something of whatever that was.
Threw the horrible at a big meet with the 16#hammer. Was making the same technical error on all three throws.
So I punished myself trying to do this. I need to get all pumped up and sexy looking for Draper fest.

Kbell Dbl Clean to Dbl Front Squat

I do one right the other in one giant set. Only resting when I have to. I got this idea from the real old time lifters. Pre WW 1 and 2. These were stage strong men. The TGU was also a stage lift.

The TGU is the one that bust my butt when I do it with no rest from side to side.

My rack position seems to suck. Shoulder fatigue was making itself known after a couple ladders.
Though I haven't done KB front squats ever, so it very likely is due to sucky rack position.

Tried them this morning with a pair of 20 kg KBs. I got through round 4 before quitting. Might of made another, but I was ready to stop. Finnished off with Dbl KB Presses.
Interesting, and it is tougher than you'd think. Resting in the rack position is probably good for my lazy rhomboids.

Well not as many as I used to. There is that statement again "used to" that really sucks, but one should never live in the past.
