So last week was a real heavy week of lifting which included:
heavy snatches (which felt great doing working sets at 55kg) and max Jerks from the rack (which although I was still finishing way out infront atleast I was finally getting power from my legs) on Tuesday
heavy clean and jerks (plan was to do working setsat 75kg but had to bump it down to 72kg because 75 was a little too ugly for dans liking) and heavy high hang power snachtes on Wednesday
Heavy snatches (3 sets at 55kg and then 1 at 57kg-which counted but was very ugly) and heavy clean and jerks (plan was to do 3 sets at 75kg and then 1 at 78kg, but they were too ugly and I couldnt even do a 75kg clean so we bumped it down to 3 ugly sets at 72kg) so not a good night at all.
I went home and spent 10 hours over the next 2 days watching olifting on the internet and then tonight… had the best night ever not missing a single lift on my way to a pretty max snatch and max clean and jerk (jerks felt better than they have ever felt before-I was even going in straight lines
.
Now the rest of the week and next week will be nice and light to give my body a chance to recover for the competition in surrey on the 23rd.
Hope you’ve all been enjoying watching the olympics. I have another late night planned watching Christine Girard lift from 12:30-2am this morning!
