The next few weeks of training will look a little different. Now that I have time and equipment here at home, will try a wee 8 week lifting cycle to jump start my C&J, snatch and back squat numbers a little :)
Day 1 hurt.
3-Position snatch complex (ground, below knees, above knees)
4 sets:
1 complex @ 40 kg
1 complex @ 45
1 complex @ 47.5
Lots of changing of plates during this one. The shoulders did not like these at all - definitely did not warm up properly! It’s been a while since I’ve done high volume snatches like this.
Snatch pulls
3 x 60 kg
3 x 60
3 x 62.5
3 x 62.5
Back squats
5 x 80 kg
5 x 80
5 x 80
5 x 80
5 x 80
Push press
5 x 52.5 kg
5 x 52.5
5 x 52.5
5 x 52.5
5 x 52.5
Snatch pulls - These were fine, focus was on keeping the back tight on the pull and staying on my heels as long as possible.
Back squats - Not too bad today! Piriformis on my right side has been flaring up a bit lately and further reinforces that I’ve been neglecting mobility/not warming up properly.
Push press - These were OK, just felt heavy ‘cos it was the last movement of the day.
