"Quite 50"

Strength Training
3 x 5's

Metcon
This was originally written as "Not Quite 50", a repeat of the workout here.

1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1 = 49 reps of...
-Deadlift
-Power Clean
-Front Squat
-Push Press

But since we covered chaining movements together during the warm-up, most everyone decided to do this instead:

"Quite 50"
50 reps, Full squat clean + thruster

Chaining the movement together actually reduces the overall work a bit, since it eliminates the dip on the clean and the dip on the push-press.  Regardless of the movement-style selected, these sorts of workouts -- you, a barbell, and a ton of reps -- are particularly mentally challenging.  Good work everyone!
