Tightroped the first 57, 2nd Clean I was on my toes. Then my jerk was really forward but I had it up and figured I just better hold it till they gave me the down signal. It worked. Really disappointed with my Clean and Jerks tonight.

In case you are wondering, Butch took the videos. That says it all.

Feeling beat up today. Knees are bothering me. Lots of loud cracking lately. Chiropractor wants me to go light today. Had back and neck adjusted again yesterday. Mid back is pretty sore today from the adjustment.

Clean pulls (dbl)- Coach McCauley says I'm using my back and not my hips so trying to figure out how to push my knees forward on the 2nd pull. It's not working out too well. I'm hitting the bar about 2 inches lower on my thighs. Didn't have my camera so no video.
