Power Cleans, light headed

[Matthew Spicka]

Im trying out singles today on the PC, working up to 150# or so. I am feeling a bit of light headedness after each heavy single. Simular to when you benf over or crouch and stand up. Nothing that causes any major effect, last about 2-3 seconds.

Is this normal and will go away the more I do them? I have experienced this with the NLP sets of 3.
