You should probably add some rows with the KB to your cluster. Also I think you can use a heavier KB. As for your shins and calves, you should probably strengthen those muscles before doing much running. To start do calf raises on a flat surface - up with both calves, then down with just the left.

I've never tested maxes before, so I thought this would be as good a time as any. OHP e1RM: 93 Squat e1RM: 120 You were smart to be conservative in how you tested.

This suggests maybe a form problem. Where does the bar touch your chest? How wide is your grip?

Ok I got your points and it makes sense to me. But I am not sure if I have understood the following quote correctly. If it were me, I'd run that out until it got really hard before switching to Operator. Is your advice I should run my program till it gets really hard and than switch to operator or ...
