Front Squat (PR), Squat Cleans & Row

OPT Being May 12

In 10 min build to a max Front Squat
rest 2 min
In 10 min perform AMRAP Squat Cleans - 90% Clean 1RM
rest 2 min
In 10 min as many meters as possible rowing
(stroke rate must be under 20 strokes/min)
Results:
165# - 20# PR! I had not tested a 1RM in front squat in quite a while so this was very exciting because I had no idea where this would be. I think the numerous squat cleans we had been doing on Being must have helped increased my FS. 
31 reps @ 115# (based on 125# clean) - This was challenging but not horrible. I would not have gotten all these reps if Shanna had not been coaching me, thank you! My form got better as I went and I felt solid in the heels, except on my 3 or 4 misses toward the end. Elbows are getting faster. 
2189m - very challenging to keep the s/m at 20 or under, it mostly hovered at 19 or 20m. 

FS 155#

Squat Clean & Jerk, Snatch work, FS

OPT Being from April 28 completed on April 29

A. Squat Clean and Jerk - singles on the minute for 10 min - tougher per minute
B. Snatch - build to a max on 20 min timer
C. Front Squat - 3,3,3,3; rest 4 min
Results:
A. 85#/95/100/105/110/115/120/125f on squat clean/120/125(jerk PR)
all these done with push jerk
B. 80#, see videos for disfunction
C. kept these on the light side, 105/110/115/120 all x 3

warming up, form looks fine, 55#

65#

75# this is where form breaks down consistently, pull with right arm is not there?

80# with intentional pull in right arm, better but still off, wtf??
