* Notes:

- Superb workout today.  Snatches felt amazingly good with only one miss at 104kg.  The sets at 110.5kg and 117kg were the smoothest snatches I've had in a long time, requiring very little foot adjustment forward after reception and standing.  You'll have to see the videos.

- Snatch extensions were relatively easy; although, as the weight increased, I noticed a slight forward shift due to my hips rising prematurely through the 1st and 2nd phases of the pull.  Aside from this flaw, they went well to 143kg which is 110% above my current max.

  1. I just saw this video -- hilarious! Your last two reps at 117 were very pretty. That bar stayed nice and tight!

  2. @ Javi - Hahaha... just having fun. I need to remind myself that the sport I love is a non-profit activity. I've become overly competitive lately, and I need to return to the "fun" side of training.
