WOD: Clean & Press Progression

Today's WOD was a clean and press progression consisting of 7 rounds:

• 1 Clean
• 1 Push Press
• 1 Push Jerk

I managed 105 lbs for my last two lifts, which was a PR. Most of the emphasis today was spent on technique, particularly engaging my active shoulders at the jerk phase of the lift. This was huge insight, and the lifts became appreciably more manageable as I worked to thrust my shoulders way up as I entered the squatting/jerk position.
