  4. Squat clean and Jerks are not my friend….
    made it to 120#

    Grace RX
    5:00
    I’ll take that after a week of laying on a beach and drinking beer πŸ™‚

  5. Pool at a cottage at the beach… best of both worlds!

    1RM C &J
    85-85-85-95-105-115 (previous PR) 120 (clean, failed jerk – PR for the Clean)

    Was happy to get the 120 clean. I have been stuck at 115 for over a year. Something crawled into my head and I was finally able to get past it today. I am confident that had I had time to attempt again, I would have had the jerk. I didn’t get my legs wide enough so didn’t get low enough under the bar.

    Grace @ 65#

    3:16

    This was somehow my first dance with Grace. I am happy with the time, but my biggest accomplishment today was making a plan (5 unbroken reps, step over the bar, turn around and lift again right away – repeat 6 times) and sticking to it from start to finish. I have a bad habit of abandoning my plan when it gets rough. I hit a wall after 15 reps, but dug in and pushed through the remaining 15.

    1. Was it me saying “quit f*cking around and lift it” the thing that crawled into your head? I hope so πŸ™‚

      Great pacing and sticking with it!

    I’m going to say the PR was cause of the tricep smashing, Thanks for the fun class Blake!!!
