Snatch-60kgx1x5
C&J-75kgx1x5
Back Squat-200#x3(F), 190#x5, 190#x3(F)


I learned a valuable lesson today, 3x5 back squats are friggin hard after snatches and clean and jerks. I even took it easy on the poundage and still I failed on two sets, although I didn't eat a whole lot today and I haven't squatted heavy at all in a long time. Guess it's as much milk as I can stomach from here on out.

WOD

Snatch
70kg(pr), 59kg x1x3

Clean & Jerk
82kg(pr), 69kg x1x3

Back Squat
82kg x2x2

Standing Twists
15kg x30x3

Made PRs in both lifts today, but I missed the 70 snatch twice before I made it and the clean at 82 was ugly as hell. I got stuck in the bottom and had to bounce my way out, made it though and the Jerk was pretty good.

I think my lack of strength is holding me back at this point. I feel like my best C&J should be better than 12 Kilos higher than my Snatch. Oh well it'll come.

Clean & Jerk
65.5Kgx1x4

Metcon

3 Rounds
Row 400M
Push Press 107.5#

I really liked that circuit. I would have had a much better time if I knew how to reset the new rower at the gym. I had to reprogram 400M every round. Frustrating!!!
