Henry Ford revolutionized the manufacturing process of the automobile with the introduction of the assembly line.  It may have been the starting point for repetitive use injuries as well but what it did was create efficiency.  With that in mind I took the Bear apart into 5 pieces so that we did 5 squat cleas, 5 presses, 5 back squats, 5 push presses and 5 thrusters and did that 5 times.  It started hard and got worse as time went on.  That's 25 Bears...tough.  Jesse came back and worked out in the morning with Corey having enjoyed his TDY to Kiwi land and Colin returned today too and worked out in the afternoon.  Good to have them back.
