getting close to the goal - Rite of Passage 5,5,4,4,4,

Kettlebell Clean and Press w/18 kg bell 5,5,4,4,4, reps. 

I started doing the ROP with the 18 kg bell (as opposed to the 24kg) because I wanted to make sure I improved my clean technique before going heavier. My goal was to work up to 5 sets of 5 (each side) in the C&P while also working on my form.   I'm satisfied with my progress and ready to start with the 24 kg bell soon! 

I feel like I am not activating all of the proper Hardstyle locks with the 18 kg bell but I am going to continue to work on it.  I'm trying to cultivate a deep backswing in the clean with the appropriate amount of knee-bend.  The way I am doing it today I think I need more knee bend.
