Power cleans and a strange metcon / Afro Celt Sound System

Power Cleans
5-5-5-5-5

75kg, 75kg, 75kg, 80kg, 80kg(f)

Hmm.. I've power cleaned heavier before, but this time I'm putting it down to having tweaked by left wrist a few weeks ago. It's getting better all the time, but I can still feel it and I think getting it jerked around a lot when I'm rolling in BJJ has slowed down the recovery. What I was finding with the cleans is that I was getting wary of it somewhere between the first and second pull ... I think it was that bit where Rip advocates your elbows and straight and you jump explosively.

Then a metcon

AMRAP 1o minutes

10 knees to elbows
25 squat jumps (air squat, feet must leave the floor at the top of the squat)

6 rounds + 5 knees to elbows

Fun metcon, if a little odd.

This video from Afro Celt Sound System (vocals guest Peter Gabriel) was unofficially banned around the time it came out- 9/11. It was thought to remind too many viewers of the tragic folks that jumped out of the Twin Towers before they fell.
