| 100kg BW Felt like a bus had hit me today. Warming up was horrid. Power snatch + snatch Went up to 1 set on 64, then failed the next two sets, both on the power snatch (didn't attempt full snatch). Then just tried to do a full snatch with it, failed it. Got it on 2nd attempt. Failed 68 snatch then got it on the second attempt. Did some snatch pulls on 80 but they were basically deadlifts as they were so slow. Nothing in the tank today :S oh well, squats are the priority. Sessions like this are to be expected. | |||

ChrisMcCarthy said:Out of interest what are your "actual" PR's? If you have already mentioned them and I have missed it then I apologize... No worries. Training PBs: Snatch - 95 (last May) C&J - 111 (~last Feb I think) Comp PBs: Snatch - 88 (April) C&J - 110 (December 2014 lol) Here's the 95 snatch and my best front squat to date (125) in case you're interested. Today's session: 97kg BW Snatch Failed 65 on the warmup, technique was a bit crap today. Out of practice. 70x2 70x2 70x2 70x2 didn't fail any but I chased quite a few of them around, kept leaving them forward. Not bad considering though. Snatch pulls 85x3 85x3 85x3 | |||

ChrisMcCarthy said:Congrats on your TW PB's! ha, cheers Chris. Looks like the key to getting stronger is not training??  Back to proper training now, legs very weak. Got some protein and omega 3 brought over to me from England though, so hopefully that will help a bit. 98kg BW Front squats 85x6 85x6 85x6 85x6 85x6 85x6 RDLs 85x10 85x10 85x10 Incline DBs 25x10 25x10 25x10 3 sets of abs | |||
