* Notes:

- Great workout.  Didn't feel tired as usual when I start squats because I've divided the workout into two separate sessions; further, allowing me time to play with other exercises which I haven't had time for (i.e. block work).  Instead, I'm saving the squats for tomorrow.

- Had a great time using the blocks to execute the block power snatch and block snatch pulls.  They are a lot of fun to use, but I had to stay focused and ensure that I remain aggressive and explosive once the barbell hits "pockets" because I don't have the added pull from the floor.

- Should have possibly done snatch balance vice the block snatch pulls today to get a "squatting" movement into the workout.  Maybe next time.
