I'm pleased with how the power clean 5RM went, I'm pretty sure last week I cleaned 165 for a 3RM. I think something may have been a little off last week, I felt really good today. I think I messed up the push press stuff, I forgot I was supposed to do it at the heaviest possible push press, so I started relatively light and worked up from there. After the second set I looked at my notebook and saw I was supposed to start at the heaviest possible push press and I was like shiiiiit. So I went up to 140 and the push press was still pretty easy but I was only able to push jerk it three times. All my push press felt good today but all the push jerks felt sort of shitty. I think the main problem is returning the weight to my shoulders every time, and I also want to split jerk everything. The row/dip workout went well, although I went out on the first row way too fast. Oops. The first set of dips were broken up 3x5, second round was 5x3, and the third round was 3 and then all sets of 2. Dips didn't feel as good as last week. Row sprints were terrible as per usual.
