Oly - PC, PJ, OHS

1800 strength

Power clean
2 x 111#, 133#, 143#, 155#, 155#, 165#, 165#

Push jerk
2 x 95#, 115#, 135#, 145#, 155#

Overhead squat
5 x 45#, 65#, 65#
1 x 15 x 65#


  • Notes: This was a really fun day for me. Got all pumped cause I watched the Chris Solinsky 10k video right before and I was just feeling good. Clean has never felt that good before, and I know I could have easily PR'd today. I am still coming out of the pull early and not extending my hips, but I had a few lightbulb moments. Same for the jerk...finally comprehended the idea of using my legs rather than my arms, and my 2nd rep at 155# was a perfect one to end on.
  • Sleep: Fine.
  • Nutrition: Awesome. Now that I am busier during the day I have noticed my appetite has dropped and I feel full a lot more. Probably just because before I would just sit around and get excited for my next meal. Been completely clean, minus some occasional grains (which haven't seemed to bug me).
  • Body: BW 167# (late day) - Feel great. Got some mob work to do though. Traps are gonna be a little sore.

  2. Thanks man. It's a fun way to shake things up, although I have kinda been slacking off on them recently. Gotta come up with a good one for July.
