Time cap: 12 minutes to complete 18.2 AND 18.2a

There is a 12 minute time cap to complete both parts of the workout. If you finish part 1 under the 12 minute cap, you move on to part 2. If you cap out in part 1, you have to take a zero for part 2.

WOD Guidance & Goal: You want to push part 1. It’s meant to be fast so you have some time left for 2 or 3 cleans. Set your bar-over burpee at the weight at which you want to make your first clean attempt. Make sure it’s a weight you know you can hit, then work to heavier weights in time remaining.
