A: up to 95# for speed and smoothness

A. done with 75#
B. 125#. My clean is a work in progess 🙁 Need to unload and spend more time tweaking.
C. 130/150/175/195/205/220/235/240# (PR)
D. 5 rds (No med ball, so did 7 HSPU instead, and scaled clean weight to 135 to focus on technical aspects)

A – 115/125/135
B – 135/145/155/165/175/175 (High hang at end was tough. Need better extension)
C – Skipped. Not testing left adductors until chiro looks at it on Thursday. Feels exactly like the right one did right before I partially tore it. Don’t want to deal with that again.
D – 5 + 9. Rx. Ugh. Damn cleans wore me out. Went too aggressive early and spiked too quickly.

C) 100-115-135-155-165-170-182(f) The 12# jump didn’t seem right after a 5# jump but the 170 felt strong so I went for it. I think I’ll get this # soon.
D) 4 rds. + 24 RX (100# PC’s aren’t T&G for someone who’s max clean is 128#)

D did 65kg clean which is 143lb I think. Can’t call it rx . 5rounds and 5reps
