The Clean, like the Snatch, is a thing of beauty. When it's clicking, you feel it. You feel the efficiency of what you're doing. When it's not clicking, it can get ugly. Fall back to the cues we've talked about, adjust the load. Relax and let it flow...

Great session everyone. The prescription for this session was 165 pounds for guys, and 110 pounds for ladies. That is monster weight. We had two guys roll at prescription- great job John and Casey. The prescription is a suggestion, not mandatory. Remember that CrossFit is all about intensity. Lighter loads allow for much higher intensity. They also allow you to adjust as you go, allowing you to do more with less rest.
The Clean always includes a squat unless otherwise stated. That squat changes the whole picture. Power cleans feel easier, but getting under the bar and receiving it in a full squat allows for heavier loads. We do want heavy, as heavy as form allows.
We are getting some great gymnastics instruction from Beth D. THANKS!!! We are really fortunate that she is here. Her cues and drills, and fuel are awesome. She has jumped right into the pool and we just love her. The rest is on us. We need to work on "The Position". What is "The Position?" Hollow. Hollow and stable. Global tightness.
Thanks for another great day of training and conditioning at CFSF. 'JT' is next and we're gonna need serious fuel to get this one in the book.
