Check out CrossFit CrownTown’s Nick Benavides with this successful Clean & Jerk of 265 pounds. Not only was it a 10# PR from a week prior, but it was good for 2nd place at the competition (CAL in Temecula). Not to mention 100#s over his bodyweight. Nick has been with us for over six months now. He came already a seasoned CrossFitter, but has made huge improvements in his all around fitness. Make sure you give him props on this big lift when you see him around. Way to represent, Nick! – WW
