So today started off pretty much unexpected for me. I wasn't thinking that I was going to put up that great of numbers seeing that I had taken pretty much Friday afternoon till today off and laid around a hotel room in Destin, FL. Now to be fair I did try to lift on the cable machines they had there but after having little to no range of motion and my shoulders starting to bother me I kinda gave up and proceeded to do a beach body workout of face pulls lat pull downs and tricep extensions. So again back to the present, I walked in the gym today not feeling a 100% like I should on max out days. However, I had an awesome day. I felt a little stiff but I felt honed in on my technique and it showed on my snatch (really a power snatch). I pr'd on snatch by five pounds today. It's not a a lot but it's still pretty good for just now getting back into full Olympic lifting again. Here is a video of the lift.
Clean and Jerk didn't go so well for me today still having issues with the jerk. Next training cycle we will work on third pulls (and the jerk recovery) and squatting. So hopefully in twelve weeks we can have three members of the team qualifying for collegiate nationals.
Till next time. Like me or hate me I am not going to change.
