I’m feeling good after yesterday’s competition. Little sore in my pecks, but not quite sure what that’s from. Went in to the Olympic lifting class at noon.
We started out with snatches. I concentrated on hip extension and Johnny got me really exploding with the hips and punching under the bar. I started at 95# and worked up to 135# doing doubles and then singles. Was hitting them at 135# easily. Didn’t want to go heavier because I wanted to focus on the technique. Felt a lot better today and could feel the speed of the transition instead of kind of floating through that part of the lift.
Moved on to clean and jerks and went for broke. Started at 135# to warm up, then 155#. Switched to singles going 185#, 195#, 215# for a 10# PR, and then finished with a 20# PR at 225#. The clean was really easy and the jerk felt solid, especially after over an hour of lifting. I think I have another 10-20 pounds in my when fresh.
Hike
Went out for a hike late in the afternoon. Wore the 20# weight vest and went 2.05 miles in 1:06:31hike.
