Good lord... that first set was absolutely MISERABLE! :) I kept telling myself I would stop after the first set. But the 3 minute rest came and I checked the negative talk and pushed through. First set finished in 14:48, second set in 6:09, and third set in 3:32. I think I added that up right, but maybe not.

For the second set of hang squat clean & jerks, I did about half of these as power clean & jerks. I could have pushed harder, but I wanted to complete it without killing myself.

Upon completion, I think it was really fun... but like most CrossFit workouts, it was hell while doing it.
