So last night in the hopes of sometime competing in Master's weightlifting I worked on my snatch. I am finally getting some good hip contact and found the seet spot for me to hit and make the bar move correctly. For me, it is almost at the belly. I spoke with an OLY lifter friend of mine and basically he noticed the difference on how I can lift light weights really well but my timing breaks down when the load goes up. He recommended that I spend more time on med-heavy weights and reign that in. Keep in mind that I suck so the weights aren't heavy but I hope they soon will be :)
I warmed up and hit a few reps at 95, 115,135 and figured to start with about 80% which is 155. My goal is to hit 10 solid reps at 80% then go up to 82.5%, 85%, 87.5% etc. Since the weights are light right now I tried to make it more interesting by putting myself on the clock so I did one power snatch EMOM for 10:00. After that I did my evil wheels in 6:54!
This morning was my deadlift day. I am starting to dread it LOL, the weights are getting heavy! today's work was 5x165, 5x205, 3x245 then 3x280, 3x 340 and my last set of 3x370. After that I did my 7 rounds of max reps false grip ring pullups and 10 hollow rocks. I pulled a total of 35 reps. Made sure I touched my shoulders to the rings each rep. Did not have the time and pleasure of doing my ball slams. I guess I will have to get them in tonight after my clean and jerk work.
The Angel clan thanks you!
