See what I did there?

So I power cleaned 152 tonight.  Well, at least I’d classify it as a power clean (if you don’t think it’s a power clean, I wouldn’t be offended).  But this beats what I’ve been doing the past few months on my full clean days, so I’ll take it.  I took a rep at 155 after this, caught it above parallel, but couldn’t keep myself from sinking down into the hole.  I’d call tonight a small victory.  I needed this.

My workout:

Power snatch: rook it up to 110 for 2 reps.  The first one I sunk down.  The 2nd was pretty solid.

Power clean and jerk: Took it up to 140 and hit it pretty solid.  Decided to take it back down to 110 and start over, just to get more reps in.  140 again solid.  Now we’re in business.  152 (in video).  155.  Caught it above but sunk into the hole.

My PR before this was 150.  This is only 152.  But you know what? I DON’T CARE.  I NEED THIS.  Even if you’d call this a full clean.  I DON’T CARE.  I NEED THIS.
