So apparently my clean form was, as one of the PTs put it, "way off and not hitting my legs" so after he showed me how to fix it (fo free, since the PTs at this new gym are total bros) my weight went down (back to 1 plate) but holy balls my face was melting. One of the best workouts I've had in a long time:

Cleans 6-6-6-4-2 (light weight to work on form was enough to kill me)
Squat 4x6
Calf raises 3x12
DB OHP 4x6
Shrugs 3x8
Oblique crunches 3xF

Yeah, my problems were

1. Arching my back too much when I jump
2. Feet too far apart when I land
3. Loading with too much weight, forcing me to use shit form.

For the time being I'm doing a lot of light weight sets until I get my form down. After talking with the PT just once he said my form was much better.

In other news, rest days are boring as hell.

I tend to jump back on snatch and cleans, some of that is because I go into triple extension to quickly. I need to be more patient over the barbell before breaking my arms. Some of that results in a bit of a arch when I am in the third pull.

For the 2nd one a good drill you can do is put some bumper plates just outside your receiving foot width sort of behind your feet. Use a lighter weight maybe 95# or so and clean with this setup. It should mentally fuck with you on your landings to minimize your feet shuffle. Some other good drills we do are bit harder to explain but basically with no barbell. Just start with you toes on a line in the pulling position, hold both arms out and just tap them against your thighs, As you tap them against your thights go down into a squat fast and put your hands out. Its a bit hard to explain without showing you but afterwards check your feet position. Make sure your not shuffling out too much and that you are not going forwards or backwards

haha, the oly coach just throws on a random mix, sometimes its vague reggae, sometimes it reign in blood, sometime it is 70s rock. I mostly ignore it unless im sitting down in between reps relaxing and then I can hear the music. It was a super small class just 3 ppl yesterday so lots of attention

Possibly the most challenging part of it was a heavy snatch balance. I got up to 135#

The power of the beard was in him.

I'm heading to Austin at the end of the week and then deloading next week. I'll still keep my clean weight the same (half plate), since A. any lighter and it feels like I'm not doing anything, I don't feel like my form will stick if I don't feel something, and this allows me to do a lot of reps and sweat like crazy; and B. any heavier and my form will turn back to shit.

No that makes a lot of sense, you need some kind of feedback from the bar else you will likely just muscle clean it. For example 115-135# is where I would peg a weight for myself when I wanna do lighter technique shit, anywhere from 50-60% of my 1RM
