clean & squat + throw

foam roll: R medial calf & L glute max lower tight but notably better than yesterday.

hang clean:
5x95+5x100+5x100+5x105+(110 fail)+3x105 -- probably most hang clean volume so far?

BB front squat:
5x85+5x75+5x65+5x65+5x75.

85 isn't easy, 65 feels cleaner but still asymmetric...

{5+5+5+5}+{5+5}+{5+5+5+5}=50 20kg swings

3 1/3 get-ups 45lb gripper plate. Not so great.

11.5min 3.0mi stationary bike

5 1/2 get-ups 8kg KB. feeling good enough to progress somewhere.

hammer throw (12lb): back to trig, hands together near end. shoulders towards 45, swing+swing (arms extended towards 45) then torque, behind+up. best throw about 49 ft.

weight for height: left hand on hip, maybe not go so deep?, bend knees until weight almost hits ground, release later and throw weight behind. best height around 11 ft or 11'6" ish.
