Yeah, I've often gone plumbing in Crossfit's video section to help me figure stuff out as I go along. Crossfit is an excellent resource. I go to a mixed grip right now once I go up over 210 lbs in the deadlift, makes a difference with feeling secure that the bar won't roll out of the grip.

This morning I put time in with power cleans. First I just loaded up a bar with 65 lbs and executed form with that weight, then I went after them with 95 lbs. 10x2x95 lbs. Can't be afraid to work on this and since the power clean is another great compound movement that works multiple joints and emphasizes the development of power through hip extension which is something I need to work on.

My glutes were and are a weak area. Weaknesses are funny things, we often want to turn our backs on such areas but they are great opportunities really if we go after them. If you ignore them they will likely remain weak areas. And weaknesses don't have to be that way. Just got to work on them.
