Power clean 1-1-1-1-1-1-1 reps

20, 30, 35, 37.5, 40, 42.5, 42.5kg

On the first 42.5kg, I landed really awkwardly. Technique was messy, the bar came down on the right first and pretty much landed on my collarbone! The last rep...

Well, I fell backwards and the bar dropped OVER me and rolled upwards, stopping over the top of my neck. Luckily I had the 10kg plates on each side holding the bar JUST over my body. It was, hands down, my most embarassing moment at the they realised that I was okay because I sat up and started laughing. Phew.

Even before I tried lifting the 42.5kg, I was so afraid! I let fear get the better of me which ended up messsing up my technique. I guess it'll be a while before I have the courage to give 42.5kg another go.
