Squatting first is awesome, hopefully this will win my bet with a fellow lifter (retired, I have to out-backsquat him by more than 5kg above his best double front, he did 192.5kg) which ends on Friday. Bodyweight was also good and the technique work was nice. I've VERY rarely squatted first (since it isn't a focus exercise) and every time I do it pays off bigtime.
Bodyweight 90.15kg
Light powercleans as a warmup
Backsquat 70, 100, 120, 150, 170, 190, 200, the warmups were very good, especially 190, back was tight and I went down nice and slow
Powerclean technique, 70, 90, 110, 110, 120, one power, one full, one power, working on timing and getting the hips through not only when I recieve the bar, but as I get under it
Clean pulls 4x3 160, alright, left knee and the surrounding muscles were screwed by now
Bench 3x5 80, alright, last reps were tough
