DLs: 170lbs

WOD: 6:10 with bar dips

DL: 95#, felt good today (didn't feel my back round at all)

WOD: 6:56 with 50# pc and paralettes for dips

Did all 45 power cleans and then all 45 dips. It seemed much less efficient this way. Should have broken it up.

WoD: 5:36, RXed, though I used a little bit of leg help on the dips after failing out toward the end.

Er... 330lbs was the max that I based my DL weight off of. The weight I actually lifted was 245 lbs.
