275lbs Jerk from Rack

First time I have Jerked from the rack in ages. Really first time I have had anything this heavy in my hands overhead since before I was injured.

AoE,

I jammed both elbows into my knees on a clean attempt with 290lbs. It slipped from the racked position which wasn't good obviously and drove them in hard. It numbed both hands for an hour or so and I was worried I had broke bot wrists. Whatever happened its reduced my flexibility in my wrists big time and it even affected my elbows alot. Chins really seem to be the exercise I feel instantly in my elbows. So thats what happened.

@Sambalifter A similar thing happened to me, except it was only my right wrist. Slammed it into my knees on a missed clean. But, you're back at it, that's great!
