* Notes:

- Today was nothing like the previous workout.  Once I got into the segment training portion of the workout, my form started to breakdown along with my mental focus.  I have to accept that days like today are inevitable in weightlifting.  You won't have a perfect training session everytime you walk on the platform.  Cherish it when you do, and learn from it when you don't.

- I started my workout with the mantra of "every rep is perfect", but failed to deliver.  Instead, each failed attempt fueled doubt and once the mental edge was gone so were my lifts.  I learned a lot today.  More specifically, just like the song lyrics by En Vogue, you must "free your mind and the rest will follow".  Even after failed attempts, your must clear your mind of doubt, failure, and negativity.  Instead, refocus your energy and execute each lift as if it was the very first.  Don't overthink, just GO!
