I can feel that this one is going to spark some movement on the message board. Therefore:

When we fail, should we
-try that set again,
-move on to the next set,
-or-
-finish?
Thanks
When you don’t get the required # of reps for that minute, you are done.
For example
during the first minute you get one C&J
during the second minute you get two C&J
during the third minute you get three C&J
during the forth minute you get four C&J
during the fifth minute you get five C&J
during the sixth minute you get six C&J
then during the seventh minute you only get 5 reps (or any number less than 7 reps…)
that’s it.. the wod is complete…
you would come back here and post the weight you used and # of rounds..
in this example:
6 rounds + 5 reps.
I think the rules here are the same as ‘Grace.’ You can do power or full/squat cleans (just not hang cleans.) The same is true for push jerks and split jerks. Just specify what you did when you post your results.
for example:
power cleans + push jerks
As a side note, this WoD is deceptive. It’ll start slow, then quickly start to suck. I think you want to pick a scaling that will allow you to get 10+ rounds.
Edit: In the post below, Laura is right on the mark. I looked at what people did in our gym last time.. our trainers got ~7 rounds. oops.
And I found this using the Brand X forum search function:

Did the maths on this one and if you manage to complete 11 mins you’ve just done a 3 minute Grace (9+10+11) after 37 warm-up reps!!
RDaley….In case the above didn’t answer your question, you can break the sets within the minute as needed. So if in the 6th minute you have to rest or reset your grip after the 3rd rep, you can do so as long as you complete the remaining reps within the 6th minute. But as JoetheMole says, once you fail to complete the required number of reps in the minute. you are done.
I think i got about 7 rounds, last time we did this.
So is this WOD called death by clean and jerk or for the majority of us who will not get to the eleven minute mark; should this be called “Death before ‘Grace’”?
I am TERRIBLY behind in my workouts but I am still riding the crossfit wagon so I guess that is the important thing! I had quite a workout. I ran 11 miles in the morning. Having some serious knee issues but I can’t seem to stop running, even though I should! It is addictive! Then I did Angie, which went surprisingly well- I had a bloody blister by the end but I have come to view that as a mark of honor rather than an injury, haha! My friend then wanted to workout so I did an EXTREMELY slow version of filthy fifty with her. Not terribly intense but I was still moving. Overall a long, full workout day!
This is worse than my last attempt (7 rounds). My goal is now to make it to 8 rounds. Will up to pack scaling (115#) once I can do better than 10 rounds.
first time doing Murph so I only did 1/2, also time was a factor. not too bad. it’ll teach me to take last week off. my push ups were my weak point which is not like me.
wu: 10 dips, 20 incline sit ups, 15 supermans
will go up to 45kg next time- short term goal sub 5 min at 50kg.
