This week we have been testing everyone by doing the 50/50. The table below shows the date, kb used & how long it took to complete. The increase/decrease shows how much faster or slower were than the last time. A few people slowed down because they went up in weight or used the same weight throughout as opposed to the last time when they dropped down a size on the push presses and jerk 

 Lisa stayed with the 8k the whole way so she slowed down by 3:02 over her last time. Jason used a 16k all the way vs a 12k last time so he slowed down by 3:43 which isnt bad considering the 4k increase in weight.

My time of 38:31 was 3:20 faster than before with the same weight of 24k. It didn't seem as hard this time either.

As the rest of the crew comes in this week, I'll be updating the table. 

I plan on testing everyone about every 6 weeks so they can tell f they've made progress in their strength, endurance or both. 

Congratulations to everyone! 

The 50/50 workout is:

50 snatches  each arm

50 dead cleans each arm

50 front squats with the bell racked on one side then the other

50 swings each arm

50 push presses each arm

50 jerks each arm

You have to use the same size bell throughout. You can set the bell down and rest but you may not change hands until the first side is done and yo can't change exercises until you have finished the current one.

This is a prety tough workout and makes for a great test!
