* Notes:

- Will someone stop by and hit me over the head with a barbell?  As you can see, I had a few misses in the snatch today.  I even attempted to extend my warm up by starting with a very light weight (25kg) and slowly increasing before starting my work sets -- shit didn't work.  Although, today was nothing compared to the "bomb-out" I had previously in the week; but, less than desirable by my standards.  I need to stop being so hard on myself, but I strive for excellence in every lift and today's snatch performance was well under the mark.  I did manage to complete at least one successful lift in each of the weights prescribed - this is good - notice I'm trying to stay positive?  The main reason for the lifts - my center of gravity is shifting too far forward throughout the lift.  It's frustrating!

- The remainder of the workout was fairly challenging.  The back squats were a mother-bitch towards the later sets, yet manageable and I completed them without failure.  So, I'm happy.  Time to regroup, reevaluate, and tackle the barbell again with a renewed sense of purpose and focus.
