* Notes:

- Feeling better today but still not at 100% with the low back -- I'm still tender but the added stretching and mobility work has help immensely.  I was able to block snatch 107.5kg with relative ease; yet, the jump up to 112.5kg became troublesome after the second rep.  Regardless, it felt good to snatch again, but I remain apprehensive about being too lofty with my weight increases.  Slow and steady has to be the name of the game.  As such, when it was time for the "dead front squat + push press" combination, I deferred to exercising a little more caution and relegated myself to stopping at 100kg.
