I am reading the power clean segment in Starting Strength. Rip says that with the clean we learn to pull hard and fast, which means we will be able to adapt to that speed and all speeds slower.
Does this mean we can use a 50% of DL 1RM for power cleans as a speed day drill to improve our deadlift?
True Jason. That thought crossed my mind after I posted. So what's a good weight I wonder? Or do we just focus on doing 50% of 1RM of power or squat cleans and leave that as the final speed drill to benefit DL?

Should I make a snatch joke, or just say that that's the best picture we've ever had on the website?
Awesome. Definitely one of my favorite hero WOD's!
You ready for the face off John??!??
Can I say the programming this week has been pretty awesome (except for the running one). This is one of my favorites.

Keeping it short to avoid confusion.
Speed day =
Back Squat & Deadlift
or
Bench Press
T, I'd love to face off on this one bro, but I have duty all night. I'm bummed to miss this, of all the ones we've done this week...
Awesome to hear Jason! Good work!

We want to make a board for Hero WODs and another for Mono-Structural WODs (i.e. 5k run, 2k row, 400m dash, etc.)
