I guess if I’m not going to clean my house, I may as well power clean some weight. See you kids at noon!

working on form w/ power cleans instead of singles 75 and 77 lbs went up to 80 form got ugly and started muscling it up so went back down. Need to fully open my hips and get quicker elbows under the bar.
After realizing today is just not my day for lifting anything heavy in a good looking way, I sticked with 135 lbs for three sets of five reps.Working on the L was fun.

155, 175, 185 pr, 185, 190FThe 185’s weren’t pretty. I came to class hoping to clean my body weight (just shy of 180), so that felt good. I don’t think I’d ever tried to clean more then 160 before.
Did a ring hang for 1:24 for the hell of it. I wouldn’t mind bringing this up to 2 minutes.
I’ve got no flexibility for the L-Sits. Still, the instruction was good and perhaps I’m capable of some improvement, skeptical though I may be.
After watching the Eagles game (sorry Stephanie), I went to the gym and did some dumbbell bench press…75×8, 85×2, 90F, 90FI’ve yet to manage a bench press with 90 lb dumbbells. It’s getting annoying.
Pretty tired after the long day and 3 glasses of wine.

Still involved in active recovery and focused largely on technique today.
Hang Power cleans: 5×3 @ 65,75,85, respectively.
Did a few snatch singles at the above weight as well just for fun.
Power Cleans: 135, 135, 155, 155, 175
The power cleans felt good, although 175 was a little slower with the elbows than I liked. Happy to get over body weight for this. Really want to dial in the technique, hopefully can move into the 200’s in the near future.
The L-sit progression was awesome — going to try and hit the various positions and work on a press to handstand while also working on alternating the legs for the L-sits. Seems that hamstring flexibility is still a major issue…

Oh, and my apologies to Juliana who I mistakenly had do hang power cleans as opposed to full power cleans from the floor. She managed to do get to her third set @ 95lbs with the hang power cleans!

110-115-125-125-125(F)(extra one at 125(F) again)-called it quits
21 burpees (yesterday was day 11 but had to do saturday’s 10)
My brain just wasn’t working with my body yesterday!
Opted for 5 x 5 @ 85#, working on getting under the bar faster and with more aggression.
L-sit progression work was v helpful. Thanks Gillian!

The past 8 days have been rough. I think the most strenuous thing I have done is carry my suitcase around 20 feet thru the airport.
I am jealous of everyone going up the Northeast qualifier. I have a wedding to go to that weekend.
With a little luck I’ll see you all tonight.

A little disappointed in myself that I didn’t go for the fourth round, those burpees are a killer and my form is not great at all!! But that’s what I’m doing this for, to learn and hopefully master..

i slacked off and didn’t show up for two days, so at home I did 100 burpees, 9:55
i was well into 9:10 with 10 still to go, but I went into overdrive to get done before 10 minutes, so that was good.
Of course then I went to beyond the whiteboard to post and I discovered that the ‘standard’ workout is 150 burpees. gr.
I will see y’all tomorrow.

Foundations wod …
10 burpees10 box jumps4 rounds for time
Result was 5:44 and less than a thimble of blood, really, it was nothing severe.I will try to land on my feet more often.
80 reps at 344 seconds comes to abt 4.25 seconds per rep. Lots of room for improvement 🙂
Thanks everyone,
