Been using frozen green beans actually. It's just what I had.

Funny story. On Monday I was icing my sore back at work. I had the ice pack tucked into my waist band while I sat in my chair drawing (I'm a drafter). I shifted my weight and POP, lovely ice water ran down my ass. I spent the rest of the day with cold wet balls and ass. Awesome.
Back feeling better from two days of icing and stretching. Did extra warm up on the rower, and extra warm up sets today.

Filmed the last set of squats and presses. I don't think it's terrible.
I usually do wide grip pullups and GH raises after these lifts, but i'll be doing pullups in the metcon tommorrow. And i didn't want to push my back with the GH raises.
My Rouge shoes are supposed to ship on Dec 15th. I'm not pleased that they're on backorder, but the folks at Rouge have kept me informed and treated me fair. As a fellow small business owner, I understand that shit happens, and how you treat customers during the problem is more important than the problem itself.
Looked strong on both. You may want to consider breaking at the hips first, rather than breaking at the knees on your squats. Your position at the bottom was fine, but as the weight gets heavier, that tendency to break at the knee may lead to you pitching forward and missing due to bad positioning. But definitely not terrible at all.
This is terrible.
My Rouges came in today. Very surprised! Very solid feeling, not weird, but very different.
Power cleans did not go well.
135x3,3
145x3,3
150x3,3
I did more last time. Just couldn't find the groove, and i lacked explosion. Not sure if it's the different shoes, or just a bad day. Might reset to 135 for all sets and work on the form.
Metcon: AMRAP in 10 minutes of 5 pullups, 10 pushups, and 15 squats. Got six rounds. Same as last time, but pullups were much harder. Probably due to the 25lbs i've gained. Pushups and squats flew.

are you doing 5 reps per set of powercleans!?

To misspelledgeoff: when did you graduate clemson? what major?
I'm an uneducated idiot. My sister and brother-in-law have undergraduate degrees from clemson.
