Lift, Practice

I tried something a little new today.

6 hang cleans
1 clean (to get the bar onto the rack)
8 squats, full range of motion

I did the whole thing 4 times with 85lb, then once through with 95lb. I try to do the pull correctly, and I'm jumping with my whole leg to get the bar up, but I don't really squat down to catch the bar, so I should start trying to focus on that. I'm also trying to stay on my heels to catch the bar and when I do my squats, but I sometimes give in to the urge to shift forward onto my toes. The olympic lift is fun, but not easy. Had to man up for that last hang clean rep.
