* Notes:

- What is it about 130kg in the clean and jerk?  This weight is the bane of my weightlifting life!  I know physicially I have the capacity to clean and jerk this weight but when my mind takes mental vacation - I'm done!  I'm so diappointed in myself because my second attempt at 130kg in the second segment was completely mental - when brain goes, so does the body!  Ladies and gentlemen, the mental focus has just left the building!  SHIT!

- Aside from my mental blunder and lack of cerebral concentration, the workout went fairly well.  The clean pulls were, no shit, HEAVY.  I started to feel more in my low back as the sets progressed, which reminds me that I must stay flat footed throughout and keep my chest up tall.  The stop squats were challenging but I managed without a hitch.  The hardest part was retaining a deep breath and keeping my torso ridgid while pausing in the bottom position -- it's freaking murder!
