Scaling:
Most athletes can attempt the power cleans as prescribed. Newer athletes should start light and treat the early larger sets as practice. More experienced athletes should try for the heaviest load they can at each set of reps.

My 3yr old son was my hype man today. Kept yelling "you can do it daddy" when I got to the x1 sets. Wasn't going to walk away from that bar until I got 210. Back inside for 10 minutes each of L-sits and Scales (the L-sit progression video was super helpful!). And hot chocolate for the little man.

Really struggled with full extension and drive on the clean, so I just focused on form at a light weight:
6 x 5 x 95#
10 min EMOM 5s L-sit (on ground) to 20s of scales
Felt pretty good today!
15 min run to warm up.
Haven’t done power cleans in a couple years, so did more reps with a light weight in the earlier sets.

haha attaboy
but, did you do the L-sits masked 🤣
Not feeling it today. Practiced technique. L-sits and scales practice before, in between lifts, and after.
20-30 reps 45# hang power clean, and 20-30 reps 65# power clean as part of warm-up.
Touch-and-go 5's: 95-105-115-115-125-135-145#. Decided to stop there.
Only DBs available, so modified to:
Power clean:
5 x 15 DB power cleans | 2x9,5 kg DB
Between sets: L-sit practice for 2 minutes | 30'' tuck holds, 30'' rest
Then:
5 x 15 DB power cleans | 2x9,5 kg DB
Between sets: front and back scales practice for 2 minutes | 30'' holds, 30'' rest (2x F Scale, 2x B Scale, final round 4x30'' consecutive holds in each pose)

I felt good and thought I could finally get a new PR. Nope same one for almost a year now, and that one was closer to a hang clean. 🤷🏻♀️
At least you hit your old PR. I failed it. My fitness went backwards. 😅😕

Champions Club Scaling Notes
RANT
Nothing to rant about
WHAT ABOUT THE MOVEMENT
Power clean - jumping/landing with very heavy weight, emphasis on the jumping
MAIN DECISION
Is a max effort format going to give me what I need today?
TECHNIQUE SCALE
As is, keep with 5's or more on each set
CONSISTENCY SCALE
As is, but don't worry about them being touch-and-go reps.
INTENSITY SCALE
Do 50-m sprints or something else to get you breathing heavy before cleans
INJURY SCALE
You can look at this as either preserving the max effort stimulus or preserving the movement themes. For max effort, maybe pick one movement you can do at full capacity and do some max reps sets. Other wise maybe an AMRAP of hollow hold or scale and box jump for upper-body injury, or L-sit and pull-up for a lower-body injury
MY STUFF
Went all out on a 5 rep max. 235 touch-and-go, which is a pr I'm pretty sure. Last rep was pretty ugly, though. Didn't get to a 3 or a 1 rep max
GENERAL FEAR LEVEL: 3
