Post Power Clean Loads and Workout Load to Comments
For the Power Clean, work up to a relatively heavy load (around 80% 1RM) over 12-15 total reps.  This is more for technique than for PRs.  In fact, you should not be missing many reps due to heavy load.  Work technique from a hang position, above or below the knee, and “grease the groove.”

For the conditioning workout, use a load equal to 50% 1RM or 60% of your working weight from the strength segment if you don’t know your 1RM.  Take a big deep breath before each sprint and then run as hard as you can!  There is no rest between rounds.
