Absolute power

Borrowing the CrossFit HQ workout from Sunday:

Power clean 1-1-1-1-1-1-1 reps

This workout calls for 7 sets of your maximum effort for the power clean. Rest as needed between sets (~2-3 minutes). You can change the weights in order to challenge yourself if you succeed. Use your warm up sets to gauge what weight should be counted as part of your seven max effort sets.

Results:
Seth - 225,235,235,235,240(f),240(f),235
Jason - 155,165,175,185(f),185(f),165,175
Shiloh - 165,185,195(f),185,195,205(f),195

I'd never done heavy power cleans before, so today was interesting. I guess 235# is my max on that lift. It was amazing how adding 5 more pounds just wasn't happening. Next time.

I had a harder time than I thought.

That left me feeling unsatisfied. So, since I missed last friday, I did a series of L-pull ups and HSPU's
