1*9*12 Recovery and Deload this week

I mustache you a question.  Custom platform.  SMART!!!
1*9*12
Deload week

I am far less beat up than I expected following the PL meet.  The only thing currently still beat up is my upper back, but it is getting better quickly.  I now my CNS is still a bit fried though.  I had lots of trouble typing ( well more than usual).  So this week I am focusing on conditioning and recovery work.  Also some light lifting.  I may later in the week go for some heavier Olympic lifts.

Standard Warm-up:
Spent a little extra time on rolling upper back and working a lacrosse ball.

Round 1:
Spin bike x 1 mile
Cleans x 10 @ 55

Round 2:
Spin bike x 1 mile
Cleans x 8 @ 145

Round 3:
Spin bike x 1 mile
Cleans x 6 @ 235

Round 4:
Spin bike x 1 mile
Clean x  4 @ 285

Round 5:
Spin bike x 1 mile
Clean x 3 @ 305

Round 6:
Spin bike x 1 mile
Clean x 3 @ 318

Round 7:
Spin bike x 1 mile
Clean x 3 @ 338

This felt good and was pretty rough.  I was gassed after it but I wanted to work on my clean technique.  I decided to work on hook grip today and it was the 1st time it did not feel as though my thumbs were being torn off.  This will be further investigated.  The problem is that if I use straps I can not catch the weight as far back as I would like and I can't get under it to front squat it up.
