Thanks guys. The workouts are really improving and my technique is getting better.

I left out one exercise from last night. After the cleans we did more 3 stage pulls from the floor, but using a clean grip this time. Those are not fun, but really help get used to being in proper position through the full range of motion. He said that next week he wants to try to get an idea of some of my 1RM's.

I don't know why I stopped writing them like that, I'll refer to all lifts from the knees as a hang from now on. I should be working from the floor soon so it won't matter anyway.

If by oly style you mean with a clean grip, then I use oly style. I was never comfortable with the crossed arm position and just forced myself to use a clean grip. It took a while for my wrist flexibility to improve, but now the rack position is very comfortable.
