New PR for the Clean and Jerk.

So, after taking a week of from any "real" lifting I got back onto the platform and started working on my Clean and Jerk. I've been concentrating on really getting under the bar, and making my first pull a lot smoother. Granted, they can both benefit from some more work, but I think it's paying off.

My scheme is as follows:

40Kilos
3 Cleans + 3 Presses

50Kilos
3 Cleans + 3 Presses

60Kilos
2 Cleans + 2 Push Presses

70K
1 Clean/Jerk. x 2

75K
1 Clean/Jerk

80K
1 Clean/Jerk

82.5
1 Clean/Jerk

This is where I usually start having trouble, but I felt strong and the bar felt smooth, so I decided to go for

87.5K
1 Clean/Jerk

And achieved it nice and smooth. This was a 2.5K PR. I felt like I had 90 Kilos in me, and got it. It was ugly as hell, but my New PR is:

90K
1 Clean/Jerk.


I'll back up a bit for the next week or so and try again soon. I'll get a video of then.
