A. Above Knee Hang Squat Clean. Squat Clean, 1.1 - build to a tough set, drop each rep

175. From the hang feels really good, from the floor I caught it forward and really struggled to stand up. 

B. Back Squat, quickly build to a tough 3 - take big jumps up to the tough 5 load, not a max set

200. Went a lot deeper and these were hard!

C. Deficit Snatch Pull Cluster with Straps, 1.1 @ 165lb x 5 sets, 2 min - use legs/quads to initiate movement from deficit and get bar off floor, keep chest high out of bottom, stand on 2" blocks

Complete. These felt kinda awkward, then Arjuna started critiquing me for not hitting my hips. I brush my hips against the bar, but he insists that I slam my hips into the bar. I feel like this would throw off my bar path. So I threw a tantrum and he left the gym. But, I apologized later and promised to be more patient next time. 

D. Airdyne, 7 sec ALL OUT per min for 10 minutes

Complete. 98-103RPM per set. Idk why these were slower than last week?? 

E. Airdyne, 25 sec near ALL OUT x 3 sets, 3:30 min

Cals = 19, 17, 15
