warmed up with lunges with twist (4x20) / back extensions (3x15) / finger ladders

practised controlling the fali.

1x100kg + 1 power clean

Will try playing around w the clean start position. The feet flexion and keeping it close didn’t really feel good during the cleans. Maybe giving it some space will make the cleans more comfortable

Rowing 20 mins

also stretching
forward leg swings with foot flexion
kind of happy baby stretch? stretch butt and back

not fantastic day. could feel coming into the warmup sets that my upper body wasnt pulling its weight but still stubbornly pressed on. lol bad choice.
in hindsight, should have done accessories instead. high pull and some pulldowns. will prob redo this tomorrow or tues

Did the typical stronglifts warmup (leg swing, side to side squat etc) with finger ladders and side pigeon stretch and body was really warm, it felt uncomfortable lol. But results of this workout show that it works.

Power clean push press

Working set tonnage 770kg
Didn’t feel very strong today but looking back, the tonnage is ok given that my previous push press @ 100kg was around 580kg. And these were for triples. Clean technique still quite bad tho ahaha. Shit
