"Unbroken 2.0"
7 rounds for time:
4 HSPU
5 squat clean - 135/105#
6 CTB chin ups
7 KBS - 2/1.5 pd
each exercise CANNOT be broken or fractioned
for HSPU - once you kick up, you must stay up, you may pause at top or bottom
for squat clean - they MUST be touch and go reps; you cannot rest bar on ground or on lap, only on shoulders if break is needed
for chin ups, chest to bar, not shirt to bar; you cannot touch down, you may rest by full hanging
for KBS - you cannot double pump, once you start swings, you must finish all reps straight
if reps are broken in any exercise, you start again with that exercise at rep 1 for that same round
(i.e. if you are in round 2 and you do 4 HSPU, then rest on ground on 3rd squat clean, you start over at rep 1 for squat clean on that 2nd round)
rest 4+ hours

For those of you who competed, rest at least 5 days. I know you might not feel taxed physically, but there is a mental and hormonal stress that has to be accounted for. Rest the 5 days, come back hard.
For those of you who didn't compete I'll start a general program. It's going to be geared toward advanced athletes so scale as necessary.

No food for 3 hours prior.
4 rounds for time of:

Post how you feel pre and post workout. I won't do this everyday, I'll do it occasionally to see how it works for you guys.

Paul is a leader in his field and his info is good. Although from my understanding limiting fat post workout after a heavily glycogen dependent workout is a smart way to go. Experiment.
You can figure out what approximate type you are here: http://nutritionaltyping.mercola.com/
It's free, you just need to sign up for his newletter which usually contains good info anyway. Be warned though, he likes to try to sell stuff.
