110kg Hang Snatch

Reverse Hyper (Roller):
60 x (15)3

* Notes:

- Completely broken yesterday and feeling a bunch better today, thanks to my MarcPro, reverse hyper, inversion table, and nicoflex.  So good, I managed to hang snatch 110kg -- 5kg more than last hang snatch session.

- There wasn't any pulls today following the hang snatches.  I played it cautiously and decided to forego the pulls until I'm 100% confident my low back is holding up well.  I'll attack the pulls next week.

2015JAN28 (BUL D6.W10)

Front Squat:
20 x bar work
55 x (3)3
75 x (3)2
95 x 3
115 x 3

Reverse Hyper (Roller):
60 x (15)4

* Notes:

- Short and light workout, because my low back is tweaked.  It must have been from the heavy block clean pulls from yesterday.  I felt fine this morning but after starting some mobilization exercises prior to working out -- it locked up.  115kg made my low back feel like it was going to explode.  I called it quits and went to the reverse hyper for traction.  Immediately afterwards, I did 30 minutes of stim on my TENS machine.  It feels much better now but I need to get a few more sessions done on the TENS machine before I think about attacking the weights again.  Piss.

* Notes:

- Long but productive workout.  Haven't done hang cleans, let a lone, hang power cleans in ages and they felt pretty good.  Worked specifically on the timing and generating as much power and extension in my pull -- they weren't bad at all.  The power jerks were fantastic.  I felt incredibly powerful by shortening my dip/drive.  Below is a hang power clean + power jerk at 110kg.  Notice the shorten dip/drive and the resulting ease of the movement?

* Notes:

- Ice fucking cold in the garage.  Warming up took forever and my hands felt like frozen ice cubes; hence, the mutiple sets at 40kg and 50kg.  Nevertheless, I did manage to snatch 110kg shortly after without much problem -- matter of fact -- it was pretty fucking explosive!  Very pleased with that 110kg.  I took a stab at 130kg but I was a little to ambitious and, later, chicken.  Piss!  Next time!

- The snatch pulls were so easy and powerful.  Makes me realize that I can do so much more with the snatch.  Soon!

- I felt like I was on fire today!  Moving quickly with lots of power.  I should have had 140kg off the blocks but my silly brain starting thinking and it killed my conviction to make the weight.  Next time.

- Today's workout was extremely short with only front squats, because I spent a good part of last night (2400-0400) awake with the little one.  Needless to say, I'm dead tired and emotionally drained; however, I somehow managed to front squat 160kg for a triple -- a feat that was completely unexpected considering the previous night's lack of sleep.

- Extremely late day workout, which is atypical of my normal schedule; however, the opportunity presented itself and it worked out fairly well.  I should have gone heigher than 130kg but my timing was slightly off, initially, but as the workout progressed the cleans became easier.  Unfortunately, I became more and more exhausted!
