    As per part of The Program listed on p297 of the book and as per the motion described on p278 of the book in the Useful Assistance Exercises chapter.

    Squats
    3x5@310

    Press
    4x5@135

    Power Clean
    1x5@105 Meh.
    1x2@105 Still not comfortable with these. Pulled hard with my arms. Very little coordination.
    2x5@95 These felt better than with 105.

    My lower back is very sore today. Pretty sure it was from my haphazard method on these things. Rewatching the videos on these for the umpeenth time. Hoping the soreness does not ruin Wednesday's workout.
