My gym gives 25% discounts to students, teachers, firemen, policemen, and healthcare workers!

You're young shouldn't affect you as much, me on the other hand, I need as much as possible! I'm hoping in the near future thay add a 9:30am class! That would add an extra hour of sleep!

I'm doing a modified paleo. I'm eating a lot of almonds between meals. I try to eat as much beef, chicken, fish as possible. I eat alot of fruit, at least 2 servings a day. But if I can't get what I need, I just watch my portions. If I have to order out, I'll eat half then and save the other half for later. I drink Xtend recovery drink + a protein drink and bar within an hour post work out.

full cleans?

Full cleans = Start from the floor, clean the weight up then squat down and touch butt to a medicine ball (which is below parallel) back up straight, then put wieight down onto the floor, and start again!

 

[Vol Mania 21]

Squat cleans you don't go to the floor everytime if I'm not mistaken.

Was doing some reading on contrast showers post workout and ran across this, I lulzed hard!

Only if it's a hang squat clean.

 

[TEX_VOLFAN]

I would rather do the hang squat cleans. I probably could of went another round or two!
