WOD - 7/23/2008

No real WOD today. Worked on power clean technique with Dave.
Started with 65# and ended with 95#. Things to work on:
- Not pulling too early (hit my knees hard with the bar a few times)
- hitting triple extension
- elbows out
- correct rack position (i.e., not resting the bar on my hands but instead setting it on my delts)
- flexibility (back was very stiff, I think from holding the starting stance as much as anything)

So, basically everything needs work.

Finished with Tabata squats:
18-17-17-16-15-15-13-13
legs and back really tired at the end
