Squat cleans felt tough today, I was hoping to get to at least 195 but I failed it twice. That was frustrating. My lifting technique was off today, I was rushing the lift instead of being patient. I'm not sure why I was doing that. Not my best lifting today. I am pleased with how the muscle ups went, all of them were in sets of 2 until the last two reps. I think I was waiting just a bit too long in between sets, I was trying to focus more on stringing two together instead of getting a fast time and I wanted to have enough rest so I didn't fail any sets. But I am still happy with my time. I would like to try 30 muscle ups for time soon, the last time I did it, it took me 23 minutes so I know I could do much better now. The bench press/KB workout was tougher than I expected, I was breathing relatively hard by the end. Bench press felt good but KB swings got tough. This week has been a little frustrating so far.
