Fluff Progress Check

I broke one wrist and badly sprained the other after this terrible clean in March.

Second video is tonight. Hit 95 in C&J tonight. Really happy with being able to clean again and having the confidence to do it.

Same. In 15 years of weightlifting it’s my most significant injury

Mine was like 8 years in and I was technically super sound. Things happen 🤷🏼‍♂️
