-Started the c&j at 19:00, spent about the next 10-12 min cleaning and not jerking 200#, getting the bar high enough but couldnt stick the landing to save my life, got 2 c&j @ 185, then the last 8 @ 175.  The fs were UB, had a couple of misses on the first few squat cleans but the last 6 felt great with no misses. Making some progress but still very weak overhead. This one was a much neeeded kick in the teeth!
