Session 1
A. FS/Jerk up to 245 (like last week missed 2 attempts at 255)
B. 15:55 for met con (no deficit on HSPU)
Rope climb practice (I am OK doing legless but I am not much better when I do get to use my legs. I practiced J hook lock.)
Good session overall but calf strain tightened up again after jerks. No running this afternoon.

Think about doing a knees to elbow when you do rope climbs. Bring those knees high to your elbows (arms should be straight) to get the most bang for your buck in your climb.

Thanks Nichole. Those tips were very helpful. I think I had been trying to pull to early before I got an effective leg lock. I would end up using more arms and not getting much out of the legs.

A. 155# 75% of Clean/Jerk

2:26 t2b ub, BMU ub,
