Push Press
3-3-3-3-3
–Rest–
5 Rounds with 2 minutes between rounds
5 reps:
1 Barbell Hang Power Clean + 3 Push Press­­­
(so 1 HPC + 3 PP is 1 rep, 5 reps make a round, then rest)

Post Push Press Loads and Time For Each Round to Comments
For the strength segment, perform 5 sets of three rep Push Presses (not Jerks — don’t rebend your knees).  Work as heavy as possible.

For the conditioning workout, you are using the same bar for both movements (HPC + Push Press), so choose your load based on your Push Press.  Note you are doing a total of 15 Push Presses per round without putting the bar down.  Choose your load wisely.

Koklov Push Presses 440×3!  Note his starting position (bar high on his chest, elbows in from of the bar)
