Coulda Shoulda Woulda

5 minutes of Double-Unders
5 minutes of 95 lb Clean and Push Jerk
3 minutes of Double-Unders
3 minutes of 95 lb Clean and Push Jerk
1 minute of Double-Unders
1 minute of 95 lb Clean and Push Jerk

Did 225du's and 22cj's in 5
Did 110du's and 12cj's in 3
Did 30+du's and 6cj's in 1... Called it 360 and 40 at 45kg.

After I did some 3rep cleans. I started with 60 kilos and worked my way up to 90. My final set at 90/198 was a PR and I was able to knock out all 3 reps (although not touch and go by any means.) I'm also glad to say that my final rep at 198 was my best. The first two I shot down too low, with my hips forward, and both feet a bit wide... I guess to make up for lack of speed. I felt the error and regrouped for the final with a great result. The bar seemed to be flying plenty high today. I'd like to work more on speed and consistency on stickin the landing/receiving the bar. 
Did 12x reverse hypers at 25/50/60/70 and did 2 there and backs with the yoke loaded with 4x45's after each set. Need to look-up some scoop on the yoke to make sure I'm getting everything I can out of the exercise.
Upper back is still tweaked from friday's accident. It's very positional though. Still rolling/lx balling the heck out of it.

And Find That Person Is You

A. Clean-Hang Clean-Front Squat Progression (1-1-3), 5 sets
B. AMRAP in 5 min: 7 unbroken pull-ups
C. AMRAP in 3 min: 10 unbroken double-unders

a. Worked up from 40 kilos to a final set of 80kg... all sets were lookin and feelin good today. I'm a firm believer in ye olde hook grip.

b. We were runnin slow on the barbells so we skipped the group pull-up session and waited to do the double-unders with everybody. AFTER the du's I nabbed 13 unbroken sets in the 5 minutes.

c. I only got 10 unroken sets and A LOT of 7/8 sets. Not very impressive as a whole, but still an improvement for Mr me.
