11/24 - tough one!

24-Nov
A. Front squat; 5 reps on the min for 12 min (light 4, moderate 4, 'heavy' 4)

75-85-90-95-105-105-110-110-115-120-120-125
Last 2 sets were toughest. 

B. Power clean; build to a tough single (as heavy as knee allows)

165! May have been able to do more but it felt like it was getting heavy on my knee lading so I stopped. Don't want it to get ugly.

30-20-10
power snatch 53#
thrusters 65#

Oh boy this was tough! But was a good push, thrusters were the hardest, not in a good position in the bottom so made it tougher to get out of the squat and wasn't generating any power. I'm still squatting with my shins straight like I was on box squats, need to get more comfortable letting my knees go over my toes some. It just feels weird and at times grinds a little. 

But reps were 
Snatch 8/7/6/6/3 - 8/7/5 - 5/5
Thrusters 5/5/5/5/55 - 3/7/5/5 - 10
My back blew up bad when I got to the 20 thrusters I did 3 and had to stop for about :45 to let it relax. This was mentally tough. 

Here's some video - embarrassed with how my thrusters look but I guess I have to start somewhere and I can only go up. But I am happy with how my power snatches felt!!

This is feeling better! Leg felt stronger today! Very sore and tired after the workout but drills and runnin felt less awkward.
