* Notes:

- Started off feeling a little tight in the shoulders from yesterday's "pull" dominate workout.  After stretching and warming up, I felt great and ready to attack the weights.  All of my snatches up to 120kg were solid.  Little, if any, foot movement and I dropped quickly into the reception of each lift; however, things started getting ugly once I pushed pass the 122.5kg barrier.  For the life of me, I couldn't get myself to snap my wrists back quickly to set the weight overhead.  All of my lifts past 122.5kg were forward -- not finishing completely and anticipating the catch.  I'm so disappointed in myself!

- The clean and jerks were horrible.  I was exhausted by the time I reached 125kg, where I made my first miss.  I recovered with a successful second attempt at 125kg, but all the subsequent lifts were off.  I couldn't commit to dropping under the weight and I found myself pushing the weight forward.  Frustration is the only word I can use to describe my feelings at this moment without blasting my performance with expletives.

- What frustrates and confuses me the most is the fact that I'm taking attempts in the snatch which equal my attempts in the clean and power jerk.  WTFO?  Watch the video below and you'll see today's piss poor platform performance!
