Results were a bit mixed today - some really good, some very disappointing.
Deadlifts:
135x10
165x6
185x5
205x3
215x1
225x1
235x1
245x1
255x1
260x1
265x1
270x1
I improved my PR by 10lb, so I'm very pleased with that. However, I usually do this routine until I fail, but today I stopped at 270lb because my form was starting to worsen. On that last set my back started to arch and I didn't use my legs as much as I should. Technically, I didn't fail - I got the weight off the ground and stood up straight - but at the cost of proper form.
======
Hang cleans 5 x 5 @ 120
3, 3, 3, 2, 2 = 13
This is by far the worst I've done with this style of cleans. I just didn't have any energy for fast movements today, perhaps due to the heat. It's really making me feel sluggish. Then again, about a month ago I did deadlifts and cleans back to back, but that time I did the cleans first. Not sure if that would have made a difference.
======
Grace: 30 x power clean and press @ 100 (from the ground)
Time = 8:04
I'm surprised at how well this went, considering the disappointing results with the previous exercise. The last time I did this, I used 95lb and finished in 8:40, so this was 5lb heavier and 36 seconds quicker.
