House is coming along, now it's just the little things. I've been majorly slacking on training since the other day. Not sure what's gotten into me.

It's the change in weather. Or at least that is my excuse for everything.

-Decided to make this an Oly day since I rarely get the chance to use Oly equipment anymore.
-Snatch - 155 for a full snatch after no snatching for months? I'll take it, prior to this I had only gotten 155 for a poiwer snatch and hang snatches, never a full snatch, 175 I had the height but didn't pull myself under violently enough
-drop snatch - I wasn't feeling these at all
-OHS - 195 x 1 I'll take it
-pullups - very dissapointed that I only got 8, I thought the last few weeks with the amount of volume I'd have done better, BAH
-glute bridge - pretty rough with the barbell there
-bridge floor press - Did NOT like this exercises

I felt like my scapula was being dug into the ground, with just the awrwardness of the movement I felt like I couldn't keep my back tight. Looking at the picture in the article right now I'm going to try it again with a slightly wider grip and lowering it to his abdomen not his chest.
Dude, definitely check out that glute article he wrote though, once you get up to the weighted glute bridge and stuff like that, your glutes get sore in different places. Good stuff.

Ok I liked it better today. I bascially took a wider grip and made sure my scap was tight, with the bar across my abdomen, then I would push down with my legs to raise my abdomen with the bar across and then press from there.
