Preparing for Down for Donuts 2019

One of my warm-up drills involves back extensions. I also do a series of other drills using an empty barbell to get me ready to do some good lifting. There aren't too many places outside of CrossFit gyms that really let me train with barbells properly, if they even know what a barbell is and have any.


And then the actual complex for Down for Donuts: clean from ground, clean from below the knee, hang clean, and split jerk. I hit 105 lbs reliably within the 30 second time-cap, but hope to hit 115 lbs or better. Realistically, given the brief recovery time and the fact that my 1RM is still 120 lbs, the odds are relatively slim but still possible.
