They are box jumps but the start position is the same as the setup for the clean except you dont use a bar Chris. Pause for 3 seconds at the bottom then jump, try increase the height every set.
not a PR but ive havent lifted heavy in a couple of months so happy with that.
clean jump – 36.5 ”
tryed to do 38.5″ but just couldnt get my head around it, it felt like looking up at a mountain when i was squating down in front of it.
good crowd at the 730am class, whys everyone stop posting their scores??? come on people, everyone likes to see what weer up to, it gives people something to shoot for and helps with motivation. Time for scrambled eggs and avacado, as Breda would say “YUM YUM YUM”
First time trying Power Cleans on a strength day 20/25/30/35/37.5. Clean Box Jumps only got 22″ but I’m scared of those boxes ;-)
Had Martinas recipe paleo breakfast pancake afterwards with blueberries instead of strawberries – more yum, yum, yum!
P/C 30/35/40/45/50 x 5 pleased with that cos hate anything heavier than 42.5 on p/c’s(cant do box jumps at mo cos of injury, so just did loads of stretching after). Good 6.30 eve class ppl =)

W.O.D 20 45 second rounds with 15 seconds break between each round on the even round do max thrusters 20/15kg on the uneven round do max situps then 3 by 80 meter sprints with walk back recovery […]
Eat meat and vegetables, nuts and seeds, some fruit, little starch and no sugar. Keep intake to levels that will support exercise but not body fat. Practice and train major lifts: Deadlift, clean, squat, presses, C&J, and snatch. Similarly, master the basics of gymnastics: pull-ups, dips, rope climb, push-ups, sit-ups, presses to handstand, pirouettes, flips, splits, and holds. Bike, run, swim, row, etc, hard and fast. Five or six days per week mix these elements in as many combinations and patterns as creativity will allow. Routine is the enemy. Keep workouts short and intense. Regularly learn and play new sports.

Nice way to get back into it after a long weekend
Weighted Pullups 2.5KG x 4. Happy enough with that given I couldnt do any strict 2 months ago.
36.5 on the clean jump. Like Tom says, it looks huge when you’re squatting down in front of it.
