Eric and Tom with Brian coaching. Jerry, we really missed you this morning.
Eric and I did a 500m row instead of jump ropes this morning. That was a fun change.
Had a good Kettlebell warm up with swings and snatches.
I did perk up when Brian mentioned deadlifts for our WOD. That is one of the movements where I can excel.

Got in a total of 200 more KB cleans this morning. I am 26.6% done. It was kind of strange without Jerry there watching and commenting on every freaking move I made while doing them but I did not let that hold me back.
I have to thank Chris for not making me hang out here all alone on the board.
We are starting a new challenge to run parallel to the current 3000 Clean Challenge.
It’s “How many cleans did you watch Terry do?”

Here is a really nice instruction video on deadlift technique.
