Hang power cleans were my first introduction to the clean form, but it’s been a while since I’ve done them in earnest. It’s amazing how much that extra momentum you get when you bring the bar from the floor can help, but I got back into the swing of this exercise pretty quickly.
95 x 3
115 x 3
125 x 3
130 x 2
120 x 3
I actually made two attempts to get a third rep at 130, to no avail: the “pop” had simply gone out of my pull. I dropped back to 120 to get in three good reps to end on, which worked. Then, it was metcon time.
Three rounds for time of:
15 dumbbell push presses (25#)
150 single-unders
As Rx’d, the workout called for 50 double-unders each round. As I still don’t have the double-under with any consistency, I went with the three for one substitution of single-unders. All I can say is, my feet and calves would very much like me to master the double-under, ASAP. I finished in 6:42.
