A Hero WOD dedicated to the four fallen soldiers that were members of Lumberjack CrossFit.

All movements are done in pairs.  For instance, Team Invincible - Chuck and Mr. T - Chuck does 20 Deadlifts (w/ his pinky) while Mr. T does the row.  Then they switch so Mr. T does the Deadlifts and Chuck does the row.  They can't advance to the next movement until both have completed the row and the movement.  Once they're finished both their movement and row they then move to the next movement and row.
Match up w/ someone of comparable strength/wind.  GET SOME!!

Hoarders???...

"The Lion"
20min/AMRAP
1 bar: 75/55lbs

1 Power Clean
2 Front Squats
3 Push Jerks
4 Back Squats

The bar shouldn't touch the ground throughout the round. Be extra careful bringing the weight down from the last jerk to the back squat (controlling it to your back makes it a little dicey).
Post rounds to comments.
