    That sums it up quite well.

    Good work this morning everyone. It is important to work on flexibility. Really focus on getting your elbows up when you are practicing your cleans. You want the bar to be resting on the shelf of your chest, you do not want to support the bar with your arms.

    The all-star for today's class was Lisa. Nice work on getting up 125 in the clean.

    Also, some of you have question marks beside your numbers because Scott took the liberty to erase half of the board before class. So, please post your weights to the comments section and I will change them accordingly.

    Thanks!
