Strategy:
We are looking for Touch and Go reps here today for the cleans with the idea that each set is to be done unbroken. The kicker to this workout is that each set here is done in reverse order, which means round 1 will be done starting with the cleans and round 2 will start with the burpees. This will also allow for half the class to start on the barbell while the other half starts on burpees so at least there is a little delay with the amount of people jumping over barbells or dropping them at different
