Thurs 091112 Clean and Jerk 1-1-1-1-1-1-1 reps

I wanted to practice technique with this as not done much before so I did a few warm ups with a 8kg/17lb bar - felt good so thought I'd see what I could do
9kg-10kg-12kg-14kg-16kg-18kg-20kg/44lb

It went really well - I was really pleased with my form and the progress and it felt good.
If someone told me a few months ago that I could clean & jerked 20kg I would have laughed but I did it and could have done more too!! Awesome god this crossfit is soooo brilliant .

Finished with a few monkey hangs and swings, a couple of hanging knee raises and 5 black band assisted pull ups. I'm really getting stronger I can can get my chin over the bar with much less ie nearly no bouce now = progress!

Edit:- just realised from reading elsewhere that my jerk portian was actually a push press and not a 'catch in a partial squat' jerk - DOH!!!
