I was getting the bar overhead without a problem and almost had it locked in several times. Finally nailed it!

C&J

  • 3x70kg
  • 3×80
  • 2×90
  • 100

  • 128 (missed clean on first attempt, made next try)
  • 131 (Clarked)

My low back was already feeling really tight from the snatches so I wasn’t expecting much out of the clean and jerk. It wasn’t painful though so I was still able to lift some weight. Figured I’d take one shot at the PR but I didn’t even try to get under it. Guys said the bar was up to my chest. Typical!
