Cleans

Working on the clean. Had Michael critique my form, and then tried to work on (a) getting my elbows around fast enough, (b) releasing the hook grip once the elbows come around and (c) jump. I was relatively successful with (a) and (b) and only moderately successful with (c).

At this point Dymphna convinced me to switch to singles and see if I could get a PR.

Any day you get a PR is a good day! My elbows and releasing the hook grip went to shit on the last three attempts, but such is the way it goes. I'll work that again next time at a more consistently heavy weight. Once I'm happy with that I'll focus on the next glaring error in my technique.

I'd say today finally sold me on getting a pair of lifting shoes (was wearing Michaels), so maybe next week (or the week after) I'll have my own.
