Mike it's similar, the one we did at the old box was...I found the old link and posted it to the blog.

300-esque WOD:
25 pull-ups
50 deadlifts at (135/95)
50 push-ups
50 box jumps (25/21)
50 floor wipers (135/95)
50 hang power clean and press (95/65)
25 pull-ups

The only thing different was the clean and jerks with Dumbbells vs Press. Both are an option tomorrow.

Donkey-Without question, you should!
