Not the WOD...

I thought about the doing the CrossFit WOD, but after arriving and warming up and showing Kenway my clean form it became clear I wasn't nearly ready for clean and jerk at 7x1. So, instead, I decided to do some OHS as they seemed to help my squat form and I'll mix in some fronts soon. We met another CrossFitter at Coles today. While Kenway and I were discussing form he started watching and added some helpful advice. Turns out he's also been converted recently. Perhaps we'll see him commenting on the blog at some point.

Warmup:
Barbell complex 45#
10 kipping pullups
1x5 OHS 65#

Cleans for form:
practiced with the bar and at 65#, 95# and then switched to just working on the lift-a-shrug at 135#

Workout:
5x5 OHS (65, 75, 85, 95, 100)

Cooldown:
2x15 kipping pullups
1x15 pushups

These felt pretty good and I could probably up the weight some, but it was my first set of OHS in a while. (Compare with 071809 and 031309.) I think I'll work the OHS and fronts in regularly to try to get my back form up. Perhaps I can get some professional coaching from Dr Lau on how to do cleans and snatches.
