Wednesday 17 Oct 12

DWC

6 x 1 hang power clean/1 high-hang clean/1 power jerk @ 70-75%

70kg

Front squats 6 x 6 @ 70%

165# (~75kg)

Core:  Complete 5 rounds of:

10 Russian twists (45# bumper plate)
5 Paloff presses/side

Notes:  Tons of volume for a Wednesday night.  Seems like this is how it's going to be moving forward, so I better adjust quickly.  Oly complexes felt heavy, even though 70kg is a moderate weight for me.  No pop on the hang power cleans, no agressive pull-under on the high-hang squat cleans (and difficulty standing up out of the bottom), and no explosiveness on the power jerks.  Front squats were also brutal.  I'm using a 1 RM of 106kg (~233#).  This may be slightly high for me judging by my difficulty last night with sets of six at 165#.  Upper back was rounding badly on last two reps of each set with elbows dropping significantly.
