Friday afternoon was Snatch and C&J day.  Did snatch singles to 135…and had difficulty getting under the bar.  Worked up to a few reps of 165 in the C&J.  I somehow have a mental block against pulling myself under the bar in the clean whereas i can do so to a degree in the snatch.  I’m not sure why, so everything turns into a power clean.

Today was a simple 5×5 of squats at 185.  I was hungry and the gym was filling, so that was it.  I’m doing a better job at staying tighter with my chest up, and thus my bounce out of the hole is a bit more pronounced.  I thoroughly enjoy it.  My lumbar also feels better for as long as I’m tight.
