– The bar comes out of the rack and off the back. This puts the bar in a better line for the athlete to push under the bar and quickly.
– Focus on pushing under the bar fast to lock out.
– If athlete cannot land with fully locked out arms they must lower the weight. = NO REPS

Lunges can be backward or forward.
Look to focus on stability overhead with fully locked elbows for the lunges.
Let’s put the Clean and Jerk Together. This number will be considered you 100% and percentage in training will be based off this number.
With the Clean, no other part of your body may touch the platform and your elbows cannot come in contact with your knees while in the bottom of the squat. In the Jerk, you cannot have any deviation in the elbows (no press out) and no other part of your body can touch the floor (sometimes a back knee makes contact).
With a Partner:
3 x AMRAP 3min
4 Push Press (95/65, 45/35)
4 Burpee over the Bar – Lateral
–Rest 1 min–
You Go – I Go fashion
Look to go fast and transition faster.
Switch every full round with a partner. Only one person works at a time.
All reps count.

*If your partner puts KBs down, you stop rowing.
*If your partner exits wall sit, you stop rowing.
*If your partner stops hollow, you stop hollow.
*Both partners must do + for + to be +. Same for RX.
Build to a heavy Front Squat and see what this may indicate for strength for your Clean.
If you are efficient at your clean technique you can pull 80%-90% of your Front Squat max.

50 Hang Power Cleans (115/85, 75/55)

While we will not be testing the Jerk separate from the Clean it’s nice to take it out of the rack and see what we are capable of without the clean portion.
In the Jerk, you cannot have any deviation in the elbows (no press out) and no other part of your body can touch the floor (sometimes a back knee makes contact).
EMOM X 7 ROUNDS
7 HSPU
7 Chest to Bar
7 Burpees
SCALE: 4’s
4 DB Push Press
4 Pull-ups / Jumping Pull-ups
4 Burpees
Score is rounds completed in the time.
Aim to finish the movements in the minute with some time to rest and aim repeatability.
Baseline: Let’s see where we are. This will be considered 100% – the weight used to base the rest of your percentages going forward.
Once you begin the lift, the bar must continue in an upward motion. For the Snatch, you have to have locked out elbows (no press out) and no other part of your body may touch the platform. Let’s give it a go and start marching toward better/safer/stronger technique. Be honest with those lockouts and or ask your platform partner.

–Rest 1 minute–
(Repeat 5 times)
Complete as many rounds and repetitions as possible in 3 minutes of the prescribed work in the order written, then rest 1 minute. Repeat five times.
Score
: After each 3-minute cycle, start where you left off at the end of the previous cycle. Record total rounds and reps completed.
Tips and Strategy:
Pick a weight the athlete can go Unbroken touch-and-go for 3 reps.
Go fast and hard in round 1 (around 85-90% of your max speed) and note your total rounds/reps. Commit to getting the same score in rounds 2-5 as you do in round 1. Take big breaths during the rest period to slow your heart rate down.
Intended Stimulus
“The Chief” is meant to feel really uncomfortable. Almost anytime there is built-in rest in a workout Interval style, it means that the “working portion” is meant to be done fast. And since the rounds in this benchmark WOD are only 3 minutes long, you’ve got to go hard and ideally unbroken.
Good Scores for “The Chief”
Beginner: 11-15 rounds
Intermediate: 16-21 rounds
Advanced: 22-27 rounds
Elite: 28+ rounds
