* Notes:

- Found an opportunity to get a second session done and I decided to stick with 24" block power cleans and push presses.  The height of the blocks coupled with the power clean drastically limited my ability to increase weights past 100kg.  However, it did provide some relief for my nagging hip because it completely negated the need to squat.

Finding enough "umph" with literally zero pull made the complex a challenge.  However, after several sets, I was able to grease the groove and start waving back and forth -- slowing zig-zagging weights until I felt comfortable -- just slightly over 100kg.  I could have gone higher but decided to end the workout because I was near 40 reps, which would have been 50% of my previous high volume rep range.  Next time, I'll try not to warm up as much and move a little quicker into the working weights.
