60 Day Lifting Challenge – The End

I’ve been doing the 60 Day Lifting Challenge from Columbus Weightlifting and today was my last day. Woohoo!

Turned out not to be a good week for me with testing the lifts.

Warm-up

  • Crossover Symmetry Activation
  • 15# Snatch Positions
  • 45# Snatch Positions
  • 75# Snatch Positions

Snatch

  • 2×95#
  • 2×115#
  • 2×135#
  • 1×145#
  • 1×155#
  • 1×165#
  • 1×175#
  • 1×185#
  • Missed 195# 5 times

Felt good on the way up. At some point recently I’ve started jumping back too far in the clean and the snatch. When I was warming up, something happened between my left shoulder and neck. I can’t put too much pressure on it or it hurts to the touch. Not saying that’s the sole cause, but it didn’t help. I think I tweaked a few things that I didn’t realize with that pretzel clean on Monday.

Split Jerk

  • 2×115#
  • 2×145#
  • 2×175#
  • 1×205#
  • 1×225#
  • Fx245#

Mid-back on the left side was flaring up and it wouldn’t let me hold the weight at 245#. That stupid clean!!

Oh well, hopefully none of these tweaks are anything serious. Back to CrossFit classes in the morning.
