Today was a pretty fun day--I realized on my way home from the track that I didn't think of my knee through the whole workout. My knee is a little sore now though, after power cleans but it will be fine after I ice. I had some GOOD numbers at the track, not excellent but definitely acceptable and promising. Considering I maxed out my squat less than 48 hours beforehand and I put up decent scores in all categories I'll take it! Looking forward to compare again next week after the weight room focus will have shifted. It might take a couple weeks to notice a big difference though.
   Cleans were pretty good, I would have liked to have got 285lb's but I'll take the pb I suppose... 300lb's is on its way--I will get it in the fall for sure! I think if I was fresher I could have for sure got 285lb's, since I was just missing and had at least a good an attempt at 300lb's.... Ah I really want to try again or spend a couple more weeks training it but oh well, time to switch focus to the big one--15.00m!

The Good

  • Good numbers during jump testing
  • Felt overall good, knee was fantastic at the track
  • The future is looking bright
  • Power-clean pb (bittersweet)

The Bad

  • Missed 285lb's >:(
  • Knee a little sore know
  • Numbers at the track aren't where they need to be for 15.00m but are still a good baseline
