Did 83# on my final clean/push jerk. It was relatively easy to get the weight overhead, but my stabilization felt a little wobbly up top. I thought I would have more trouble on cleans. It was challenging but solid. Still working on my balance for the split jerks. I feel more natural on my right but my left lands in better form!
That’s awesome, Kenna, congrats!! I better stop missing C&J days if I want to catch you! 🙂
Had to jump into this workout before heading out to the SuperFit competition where we got to watch several CFDCers absolutely kick ass. I can’t imagine doing workouts over a 12 hour stretch so survival alone was impressive and they all did much more than survive.
Worked up to 125# on the C&J which pushed my jerk near my max but the cleans were still feeling good. After finishing the sets I threw in another heavier clean and at 135# that’s as heavy as I’ve gone I think, but as long as I followed directions (HIGH ELBOWS!!!) the bar still popped up without me even dropping under much.
