12/29

woke up feeling sick and I haven't gotten any better.  Did the AM workout.  Will likely take tomorrow off and work out W-Th-Fri.

First the report on today-

14 mins alternating 3reps each min between power cleans and squat cleans.  Used 100 lbs (55%)

I felt like I moved just a little bit better.  I focused on quick elbows in the power cleans and making sure I didn't muscle snatch.  On the squat cleans I felt like I was getting down a little quicker and receiving it a little lower.  Small, but steady progress.  first and last sets included in video.

14 mins alternating 3 resps power and squat snatch.  It doesn't show it in the video, but I was hitting my ouch bone on the hip release with greater regularity than normal.  I was also rolling my wrists back and getting my chest out, or at least it felt that way.  I have more work to do but it is a small improvement.

I am going to miss the PM workout today.  Its 2:00 pm and I still feel like crap.

Two questions for you -   First, I have an AM and PM workout on Thursday but the gym is open only 2-5pm.  Did you say you were working out Thursday morning?  If you aren't coming in, could I borrow 2 dumbbells Wed pm and return them Thursday afternoon?

Second- I have to go Charlotte to help my daughter move on Saturday.  I am supposed to row that day.  Should I try to double up on Friday and maybe combine the Friday class with some or all of the rowing?  Although it is not a skill workout, it is good conditioning for me.
