Cycle 2- 5s Week: Power Clean & Deadlift: 9/8/14

Slept well and felt good as left for the gym today (6/10).
Felt awesome and think my main lift session went great!

Energy level dipped slightly as I did my accessory work but still decent enough.
Last few leg days I tend to be wore out later that day.
Today seems to be different as I was actually felt good the rest of the day!

Great session!

Was leery at 1st as I was pushing fast and hard on the cleans.
But surprised that I felt great the whole time and the bar felt nice and easy.
Did everything with double overhand grip too!
I somehow forgot to count on the 2nd work set and did 6 reps instead of 5.
But I still easily did the goal of 8 reps on the top set and felt like I could have easily done 2 more reps if needed.
