I was a little disappointed how the hang squat cleans went, I was hoping to get at least 170 or 175, I got up to 170 and got the first rep but went for the second and it wasn't even close. Oh well. The bench press felt a little heavier than usual, I was reading through my workouts from 6 months ago and in January I bench pressed 115 for 5 reps, but today it was a struggle to bench press 115 for two reps. What?! I don't think I ate enough today, I felt like I didn't have a lot of energy. The last part of the workout was good, except for the planks. Today I really proved how terrible I am at planks. I just can't support myself very well on one arm, I was wobbling and shaking all over the place, it was pretty funny. Stephen said he's going to have me work on these a lot more which is good because I am very bad at them. I can walk on my hands easily, so I should be able to hold a side plank for longer than 30 seconds.
