To that end, I’m doing a 12 week Oly program with Pete. Should be fun. Exercise Sets/Reps/Dist Weight/Time Row 1,000 m 0:05:33 Power Clean 4 [...]

Clean practice

W Basically… The prescribed workout for today was Grace — 60 kg (135 lb) Clean and Jerk, 30 reps (scale as necessary to preserve technique). With Pete’s observation that I pulled way to early on my 60 kg clean the other day I decided to focus on cleans. More specifically, on achieving a fuller hip [...]

Merrily down the stream…

W M G Basically… This champion effort got me thinking about breaking up various movements with rowing. I’m no where near pulling off a pyramid like that but I like the idea and damn if that’s not an inspiring session to keep in mind when you’re suffering. Warm up with 500m row, skipping, light OHS [...]
