Nice job on the squats!

Thank ya, thank ya. I'm trying!

Today:

Hang snatches 45x3,55x3,65x3x2 easy

Hang cleans + 1 jerk 45x3,55x3,65x2x3,75x2,80x2x1 felt like I was using my mothereffing arms so....

Rack pull + shrugs snatch grip then clean grip: 45x3 of each, 65x3-5 of each. I felt the difference but now need to translate that into the real deal. Grrrr.

Jerks behind head 45x3,65x3,75x2,85x2,90x2x1 these are continuing to increase. No problem at all. I am a little more wobbly since I'm trying to get under it more with the back leg bending, but otherwise solid. In fact, I'm jerking so hard that it sort of hurts my shoulder--it's like I could handle another 15-20 lbs with the same force, if that makes sense? I think I'm jerking my arms UP harder and faster than I have to to catch it since the weight isn't that heavy...?

OHS 50x3,60x3,70x3,80x2x3 (+5)
Could have done 85-90 but I was getting a little tired so next week.

Solid workout, 45 minutes total. I'll take it.
