Notes:

- Didn't have much drive in my legs today, my calves are still sore from 13.2
- The Hang Squat Cleans were feeling good overall
- The Thrusters didn't have the pop today, I must've had bad hand positioning on the 4th set because I got 220# on the 5th easily
- I'm really pleased with my Kipping HSPU, they were much improved from last weeks.
- I was able to get 4 UB MU's easily every time which I'm happy about.

Week 5 / Day 1

A. Front Squat @20x1, 1 rep @95% RM x 5 sets, rest 3mins
@261.5 Completed
B. Push Press, build to a 1RM
Got up to 230#'s PR!!

Notes:

- I was pretty tired today but the workout went really well
- Front Squats felt good
- On the Push Press I brought some intensity. I failed 225# and 235# but 230#'s went up slick.
- Started too low in weight for the DL, I thought the tempo would've changed things
- BP felt good
