  • Deadlifts: 400*1 435*1 450*1 475*1
  • Hanging Power Cleans: 135*3 165*3 185*1 195*1
  • Hanging Power Snatch: 135*3 155*1 165*1 NEW PR!! 170*X
  • Sled Push & Pulls: 90*16 3:00
  • P.U.P.P.: 1:20
So first; I rotate heavy/light sessions on my upper body workouts week to week. I also do that with squats, but don't for my dead/o-lift days. Going to start doing that. It's really helped propel my squatting quite a bit. Went heavy on deads here, going to use deficit deadlifts the next few weeks on both heavy and light days, then retest.  Cleans went well but I was somewhat burn out from the deadlifting. On snatching, I think my grip had been a bit to narrow, the bar was hanging a tad below the hip crease which is where you want it to be when in the hang position. I'm not sure if that contributed to the PR here, but it couldn't have hurt. Been trying for 18 months to get past 160 and finally did it.  Finished with some sled work and some core stuff and called it a day.
