Notes -  This went very well.  I had worked a lot harder on a "day off" yesterday after taking the kids up to Snoqualmie for tubing, where I ended up dragging them up the tubing hill 8 times, which was a lot of work primarily on the forearms (the kids sat in the tube while I dragged them up holding onto a rope).  I hit a PR today with the 32kg for TGUs, getting 3 reps.  My last rep on the L though sucked with my ground leg (L leg) coming totally off the round on the roll to elbow).  On that side for some reason I have trouble rooting that L leg into the ground on the roll to elbow.  On either side on all aspects of the TGU, that seems to be my weakest part and I am not quite sure why.  I held the bell very steady the whole time and was not in danger of dropping the bell or missing the lift, but I was pissed, it was a shitty rep.   Come to think of it I should have lowered the bell and started over and gotten a good final rep out of that side.  I will have to do that next time.  My next and final rep on the R went well.  As far as snatching goes this is the most comfortable and confident I have felt with the 24kg in some time.  No hand issues on all, callous on the R hand middle finger is something I have been taking care of.  I feel better on the snatch, keeping the bell close on the ascent and really pulling it up to lockout with as little wasted movement as possible.  Good stuff for certain, I like where this is going.
