I’m terrible at posting regularly. So one of my goals is to post more. I also happen to be a week behind.

Jerk, built up to 100kg.

Front squat + jerk built up to 102kg.
Feeling pretty good, less scared my shoulders gunna explode.

Conditioning. Done as BMUs. No rings at the work gym. 6.35

No time for anything else.

A.
Every 90 seconds, for 15 minutes (10 sets):
Jerk x 1 rep- got up to 195
B.
Did a bit different stuff, knee is swollen and feeing like crap… front catching a power clean funny… kept weight lighter and volume higher.
3FS+1Jerk.3FS+1Jerk.3FS+1Jerk rest 2 minutes
3 sets were done at 125, 145, 165.

Warmed up for power cleans but quad wasn’t even engaging to pull off the ground without totally compensating… called it a day.

Should I scale the hspu in aerobic conditioning since I can only do about 12-strict fresh? If so how? Heavy l sit press?

Sometimes I’m only able to get 3’s and 4’s when volume gets high. As long as that’s productive than I can do that. Let me know best option, thanks!
