  1. Damn these are some impressive lifts. Hopefully one day I’ll be close to that but knowing how this sport is growing and how much Weightlifting is becoming more accessible to everybody, I figure by the time I can do 250/300#, it’ll be the norm and people will have a 300/350#.
    Small little side question maybe a lot of people can answer… I have seen a few other videos of impressive PR Cleans at heavy weight. Why not attempt the jerk along with it? I haven’t seen too many programming, here or elsewhere, where it’s build up to a 1RM Clean (no jerk). I can so not doing the jerk on a double or triple attempt but on a single? Just curious and looking to get some insight from others. Obviously if your program says 1RM Clean, then only Clean it, don’t Jerk it.

    • A lot of people having trouble going over head with their 1RM clean. I know a lot of athletes who can not jerk anywhere close to their best clean but everyone is different.

  2. This is a joke about front squats and pistols after this atrocity today right??? I can’t take a dump without going into quad convulsions

  3. Might be a stupid question but do we work up to a pr and get 3 attempts at it or do we just get 3 attempts total

  4. If we don’t have the strength for the hang clean @225, what percent should be use ?

  5. BBG
    1) missed 107kg 3 times
    2) only got to 125kg

    Strength
    Off of 140kg

    Conditioning
    16:43 Had to finish it. Pistols took 5 minutes.
    Quads were a bit fried for obvious reasons.

  6. Snatch: 97.5kg , missed 102.5 twice which would have been PR. Failed to lock out one arm.
    C&J: 125kg (easy), 130 (f jerk), PR attempt at 137.5kg (fail)

    FS: Done of 150kg PR, pretty easy

    Conditioning: Got to 26 reps of cleans. Did the WOD two months back and managed to get through it in about 14 min. Must be the fatigue…

    Got 254 on 13.3 yesterday. Satified with that. Haven’t done MU or ring dips in a couple of months because of a shoulderinjury.

      • I think it is better by one, so pretty happy about it. Not trying to qualify for anything this year, so just trying to have fun with it. My wife is giving birth within the next couple of weeks and i have exams at the academy just around regionals.

    255 pr cleaned 270 but missed jerk

    • Running will get you winded but honestly just doesn’t tax the posterior chain like rowing does. Here we sub KB swings for rows pretty often, roughly 10-12/100m (overhead). Just an option

    Conditioning: 14:07 pr. Row: 8:05. Pistols felt horrible not sure when I got to the cleans (I think around 11:15) Cleans felt okay. Opened with a set of 8. Then did 4, 4, 3, 3, 3, 3, 2.
    My legs are destroyed.
