I don't know if you can tell but I've been really concentrating on the Olympic lifts lately. I think it's very very very important to master the lifts. At my USAW cert, Mike Conroy told us that it takes about 5 years to truly learn the lifts and 10 to master them on a Olympic level, and that's with very consistent practice. Josh Everett Everett also says 10 and compares it to golf, "sometimes you just have really bad days, but you always hit that one lift that makes you keep coming back for more. With consitent practice, it eventually becomes natural, but you still have your bad days." I've been watching a ton of Coach Bergerner's video's on the journal and trying to apply them on my technique every day. I feel like I'm getting better but something's missing, I want to go to his cert or schedule a private at Mike's Gym, maybe I will.
Warmup: Row 500m+stretch
3x10 OHS PVC pipe
Workout: Drilled snatch for about 35min. Started warming up with snatch grip behind the neck presses, OHS, snatch balance, drop snatch. Started with light weight high hang snatch, then high hang squat snatch, working on a fast jump, shrug and pull under the bar. Then put on a litte more weight and went mid thigh squat snatch, trying to be fast as fuck and held in the bottom so muscle memory can feel that possision. Then pulled from the ground and everything went to shit. Had about 5 solid reps and about 15 shitty ones. back was tight from yesterday and felt like shit. Missed 135# which is warm up weight for me and called it on snatch. I thought to myself, fuck you do heavy OHS and get a new PR.
OHS:
1x1 @135#
1x1 @155#
1x1 @185#
1x1 @205# (old PR)
1x1 @225# PR
1x1 @235# missed rep twice
NOTES:
I still felt like shit until it was over, then I actually felt like working out. I think I can hit the 255# area if im 100%, my workouts lately have been blasting my shoulders and back and I was super tight today. I will re-test this as soon as next week, I dunno. I need to do a hard met-con tomorrow even though the main sight WOD looks fucking bad ass, if my back is good tomorrow I might have to try it, I've been thinking about going main sight for a while now with CF Endurance.
this is the coolest shit, this is the only time I would want to be a hick, the only time
