Notes - So that was interesting:) First, I was TIGHT as hell this morning. Damn. Trap, lat, shoulder, mainly the right side. Should not at all be surprised, I have a lot of new movements going on and need to ease it. Been really busy at work, running around like an idiot, so that is probably a factor. In any event, I did take some time on soft tissue work, mobility drills, and did get pretty well stretched out. Renegade rows were in the warm-up, haven't done those in many months. The movement was a little harder than I anticipated, it's probably good to get some of that work back in. Focused on keeping everything very tight, tensing the glutes. I did these off a box. Snatching with a 28kg. 60 reps. So this was definitely a PR. I have not snatched literally since I passed the SFG on November 16, other than literally a couple of random reps here or there. So 3 months!! Weird and a bit shocking. I have to say I am really, really pleased with how this went. Strong makes everything easier. This was not hard, at all, and that was really cool. I won't say the 28kg felt like a 24kg, but it didn't feel heavy, even on the last set. I was really using my glutes, loading the bell on the backswing on every rep, and finishing strong at lockout, not going to fast, and just hitting every rep. This was "practice" and I really like snatching like this, rather than racing a clock. We'll see how I feel tonight and tomorrow. I am anticipating that I will be tightening up and need to make sure I stay as mobile as possible.
