Cleans - up to
4 sets of 3 @ 133
1 set of 3 @ 141.8

340X5 is an all-around PR on Squats.  Heavy, but smooth reps throughout.

145X2 is a Rep PR on Press.  Not sure why I failed on rep 3 on the Press.  I did 5, 4, 5 with 140 at the end of the LP, and I would have thought that put me much closer.  Oh well, go for it again next time.

Cleans were feeling very smooth, with the bar flying up and landing very nicely on my shoulders.  So I added 2kg to each side and did one more set.  All good.

First intensity day, or "PR Friday," on the TM.  Squat is an all-around PR and Bench is a Rep PR.

Squats were a bit slow, but fairly smooth.  Bench felt pretty strong.

Cleans took awhile to get going, but I finally got them popping up and receiving on my shoulders.
