Cycling is how men get away from their wives...to visit their boyfriends.

Hope you're ok bro.

Congrats on the new PR. And I hope nothing about you is destroyed. Bikes can be replaced.

Good work, Will.

I need to max FS again soon. You guys are getting too close to me for comfort.

Squat Clean: 225 x 1

That matches my power clean max. That's good. But that power clean max is a little dated. Either way, they are a lot closer together. Felt great on that 225. Went for 240 and failed, but was really close. Got under it, but I couldn't hold it together. If I was having a better day, I think I could have gotten it.

But my form felt really good. A little more work, and I think I will be able to get my clean where it should be relative to my power clean.
