Squat Clean PR

Managed to win todays pre-wod at the box today (work up to one rep max clean) and hit a new PR while at it!

Pre-Wod:
-1 rep max clean
= 97.5 kg

This was huge for me. Though it was a squat clean, it beat my power clean PR by 7.5 kg and was evidence that i am getting stronger! It was only a few months ago that 80kg was my 1 rep max (+17.5kg!). I really struggled to even get 3 points in Games Wod 3 in April this year (5 min amrap of 75kg squat clean and jerk- one point for each). A goal of mine for some time has been to clean 100kg, something that may be accomplished sooner than anticipated...

Wod:
10,9,8,7,6,5,4,3,2,1
- KB swings       (24kg)
- Power Cleans  (50kg)
- sit ups
My time= 10:40

Really wanted to beat Head Coach and good friend Match on this one as he had set the pace early with a 9:27 time in one of the morning classes. Match is super consistent and competitive.. so generally if you best him in a wod- you're doing well. Not today though!
