A. Power Snatch, work to a heavy single.
- I did not do that well on these today. Felt a tweak in my shoulder on one of the first reps I did. Decided to not push it after that. Only worked up to 160#
B. Clean and Jerk @ 80% of your best clean and jerk, 1.1.1 x 3 sets, rest 3 minutes between sets.
- All sets at 205#. These felt pretty good. Would not mind seeing a heavy clean and jerk come up during the last 2 Opens workouts.
C. 10 Sets of the following:
5 Chest to Bar Pull Ups
rest 30 seconds
5 Kipping Handstand Push Ups
rest 30 seconds
- These started off pretty shitty as I started to fail on the HSPU's (as I usually do!) on the 3rd round. Coach Kevin came over and told me that I wasn't getting enough of a kip. He's told me this a million times and I've been pretty stubborn about not following his advice. I finally gave in and was really pulling my knees down to my chest. Wow, what a difference!! Only way I can explain it is it's like the difference between a push press and a split jerk. One movement requires soooo much more shoulder strength than the other.
