Cleans

June 8, 2010

After an awesome beach weekend of margaritas and undoing any good I may have done with this workout, the workout from Thursday:

Squat cleans 3-2-2-1-1-1-1

This was the first time attempting heavy squat cleans in about six months, so it was mostly about jogging muscle memory and getting “comfortable” with the form again.  The rep scheme went out the window, but I got up to 125 before running out of time, and they felt fairly solid by this point.  AND THEEENNN:

3 Rounds
10 Power Cleans (135/95)
20 Box Jumps (24/20)

Used 95 lbs for cleans and had to scale back to a 20-inch box after the first round, since my legs were doing a kind of uncooperative lagging disconnect thing that I haven’t experienced since almost back to Foundations, which makes it seem like I’m going to faceplant at any second.  May have had to do with some fatigue from the many reps of squat cleans beforehand.  In any case, did it in 6:03, and felt pretty strong throughout beside the leg thing.
