400 repeats/Triple Mash and "The Ray"

Friday's Farewell Workout - THE RAY

Cash In- 15 barbell thrusters
6 Rounds of:
5 power cleans
5 muscle ups
5 pistols each leg
Cash Out - 15 barbell thrusters



Ridic. Took a stab at 95lbs barbells. Cashed in okay, but couldn't handle the power cleans and scaled down to 75 lbs. Powered through the first 2 rounds but couldn't keep up with the muscle ups and had to scale to 10 chins and 15 pro push ups. Great one! This is an instant classic and named after a great partner. Ray was a true inspiration in the workout room. His enthusiasm and drive are unparalleled. I learned a lot from being in the same room as him. We'll miss you!

400s at the end were a killer! Held back a little extra on the first round, but lost all acceleration for the final 3 rounds so couldn't beat 1:10. Great way to increase speed! Love'm!

It was good to see you go for the 95lbs!

We still need to dial in on your speed and power with that lift.

MU's are a killer after all the other work.
