Took a little longer than usual to warm up today. Once I got there I felt OK. Didn’t have my normal speed on the upward drive on the squat today, but the weight was still pretty easy. The power cleans felt great today - I concentrated on keeping my arms slack and driving the motion with my legs each rep. I also accidentally jumped up to 60lbs on the dips because I forgot my post it note with the correct weights. No more going out the night before a strength session. 39 burpees as my finisher. Total time: 60 min.
