Warm-up:
good mornings
10-5-3 overhead squat (95,115,135)

2-2-2-1 split jerk (95,105,115,125)
10x1 clean & jerk (2x135,4x145,4x155)
5x2 back squat (high-bar; 2x225,245,2x255 [belt])

1x16 chin-ups
3x8 glute-ham raise (self-assisted)

Jerks were really terrible today; I didn't lose any, but they felt really sloppy. Cleans felt pretty good. I did self-assisted GHRs bracing my legs under a well-placed metal bar (like the video, sans the dude staring at my ass an saying 'Tight, tight, tight, tight, tight ... good.'). These are brutal. The self-assist is a bit hard to gauge, so I'm gonna use a band next time.

I think the Turkish get-ups are catching on; I had a second person approach me to ask how to do them.
