3 Rounds for time
Run: 200m
Hang Cleans 10 Reps@135
Ring Dips 10 Reps
Time: 00:06:04
Today felt good. The nag cleans got heavy near the end and I actually lost my grip on the 7rep of the last set. I need to work on my grip strength, in before masturbation joke. I will start doing the pull-ups I do on the fatter pull-up bar at Zephyr. As I start to incorporate more of the Olympic style movements into the training my grip strength will go up. I have been reading Rippetoe and about his power clean technique. His advice about aiming the bar such that it is above the knee, on top of the thigh as the jumping point makes sense! Go do some hang cleans, then practice the full movement with the idea that as the bar comes over the knee it touches the thigh and then I jump. It is so simple I could do it. It will really, really, REALLY, help the timing of the explosion of the hips. Such a simple way to explain it and totally obvious. Remember to get his book, you will learn so much.
Cheers!
