  1. Warm-up: Done but the muscle snatches were tough and I prob did a slight re-bend

    Strength: 245, 245, 265, 265, 275, 295 (2)
    245 is my PR clean but I think I can do more so I kept adding weight as it felt good. Maybe could have done the third at 295. I did this as pulls to past the hip or so not high pulls so as hard as I could pull with no bending of the arms really.

    Work Capacity: 5:09. About 90 seconds faster than last time. All reps singles and done as one motion without any pause at the top of the clean. First 15 took 3' last 15 took 2' so I think I could have done this faster.

    Will do the back bay complex tomorrow a bit

    Great first week feeling pretty good, only have some slight soreness in my forearms/biceps.

  4. Warm Up: As Rxd

    Strength: Couldn't remember my 1RM clean, so I built up to that. Ended up at 235. Got underneath 245, but my wrist gave out on the catch so I stopped there.

    WC: as rx'd with a time of 10:30. Was definitely a challenging weight.

    EC: fun little exercise. Will be interesting to see this incorporated into a WOD

  5. Warm Up: done
    Strength: Still having hard time getting the form down with the clean. Dana was helping me out and I worked hard on my form with 135#.
    WC: 115# 10:00
    EC: It's tough. Couldn't do the wall pocket. So I was trying to do the extra credit. I was able to do with my right hand, but not my left. Kept crumbling down when I tried with my left. Today I was struggling a lot a lot, still working on my form and technique.

    1. Good job pushing through. A lot of these movements will be tough at first but you will get them down quicker than you think!
