1/26 and 1/27

12 minute blocks to reach max power clean, power snatch, squat snatch and squat clean.  Because the kilo weights were right beside me I used those.  Heaviest lift of each, in pounds, was pc - 165, ps - 121, ss - 115, sc - 172.

I had a few challenges on this workout.  I was thinking about foot placement and not about the pulls.  I didn't sit down in the hole on the squat snatches.  I didn't lock out my shoulders very well on any snatches.   I looked too slow throughout the whole workout.  I was too busy thinking and not focused enough on the lifts.  I really let myself down on those snatches.  Don't tell me otherwise.  Let's be honest about it.

Having said that, I have never snatched 55kg in competition, which I did.  I have never cleaned 78 in competition, which I did.  So I am clearly getting stronger and need more form work.

1/27

21-15-9 Power cleans 95#, ring dips.  Time was 5:23.  I finished the first set in 2:30, second set at 4:10 and last set at 5:23.  So good pace throughout.

I did well on the cleans.  That is my sweet spot.  I did the sets in 14/7, 8/7 and 9.  Never took much time when I rested.  The dips got hard real quick.  my depth was okay for the first 15 of the 21 set, 9 of the second set and only about 3 of the last set.  My left shoulder doesn't like those ring dips.  After the workout, I did 5 sets of 5 dips on the bars, all of which were really good.

for good measure, I ran 400m, then did 10 ring pullups using my wrists only and 15 T2B.  Those felt a little closer to being what I want.
