Block 8, Wave 2 - Clean/Assistance II
My write up and video from my win at Maryland's Strongest Man last weekend is up on the site and can be read/watched here. It was my 7th time competing in MD Strongest and my 5th first place finish.
Today cleans felt immeasurably better than they did 2 weeks ago. Possibly due to my post-Thanksgiving bloat, possibly from neurological adaptation, possibly because I didn't take idiotic jumps on something I haven't done in over a year. Regardless, I'm 99% certain that I hit a lifetime PR for a raw triple on cleans today, so of course I did not get any video of it.
