Final heavy day for a week, test yourself and see where you are at. We will have a recovery session tomorrow and deload next week. Next week will not be easy, but slightly easier. Only 3 programmed sessions next week, then the next 4 weeks of BBB will take a slight twist in programming. The workload is getting to be very high and regulation must be made before something breaks. I predict massive PR's in 8 weeks.
Oly Practice - Heavy Day
Sometimes, the harder you push, the worse things get. This is evident in the following video. My snatches seemed slow and my jerks were atrocious. There was a lot of frustration in my overhead work. But of course, when you're trying to test yourself, you keep pushing hard. Somedays you have it, somedays you don't. I WILL be making blocks very soon. The jerk blocks are very versatile and it makes more quality reps overhead. I have been playing with split snatches more and it feels much better on my shoulder, but unfortunately I have had lower abdominal pains for a long time, (maybe a hernia) and the split position is worse on the lower abs. Lunges absolutely kill me in that area, even unweighted, so you can imagine what heavy split snatches and jerks are doing. I talk about my experiences so maybe you can benefit from them. If you are having any issues, good or bad, think about sharing them so others might benefit from your successes and failures as well.
