Snatch complex - work to 1RM
Snatch + snatch from hang below knee + overhead squat

It was a real struggle, kept missing the hang snatch, several times missed it back. Used straps. Probably could have gone up. 150 might be a PR from the hang.

Bunch of crap + Back squat/Ring row/Ring dip

15 Minutes of GOAL Work
Many of you established goals as part of the Fall Challenge, it’s time to get to work on them. If you do not have goals, it’s time to establish them.

Not sure what to do with this. Did some Sott's presses, working up to 75x5 I think. Did a couple of muscle ups and handstands. Mostly tried to find things that didn't hurt my shoulder after really irritating it yesterday with front squats.

Couldn't hit 135 today. Worked up to it, missed it back a couple times. Dropped back down to 115, hit 130 then moved on to C&J.

Just did a few, worked up to 175 I think. Recorded a couple.

Just wasn't feeling it today. I was planning on doing a hero workout for Memorial Day, probably Jerry.

After snatch/clean and jerk I watched Pitt Ultimate take their second consecutive national title. Then I browsed the internet for a bit, then I felt kinda depressed and didn't feel like working out. Oh well.

Tried to fix the rocking back on my heels too far issue (toes were coming off the ground) on the pull. Found that I make a lot more lifts if I get my head through and chin down. I have a bad habit of keeping my chin up, which prevents me from getting the bar back.

Snatchx2 + Weighted pull-up + Push press

--Snatch--
Worked up to 135, missed 145 a bunch of times. Fighting with straps didn't help.

I pretty much couldn't snatch with the straps on; when I would ditch them, the lift felt much more agressive and clean. For example, After failing 145 a bunch, I dropped back down to 135, but couldn't hit that either. I ditched the straps and hit an easy, clean lift at 135.

--Snatch-- (took a break between the previous session and this one)
Complex: pull (2-3s pause)+pull(2-3s pause)+snatch
Hit a few of these at each of 115, 125, 135 (one complex at a time)
Did a couple pulls with pauses at 165

Figured out that I was using my straps wrong, so they were much more helpful in this session. I was about to order a different style of strap, since these were driving me nuts. Then I wrapped them with the "tail" towards the inside of the bar, and everything suddenly made sense.

"Repetition is king."
Then I just banged out some snatches at 115. Probably like 10? I threw a couple ugly power snatches in there just to see how they felt.

--Weighted pull ups--
Work to a heavy triple- 53 (1.5 pood KB)
Then 6x3 at 90% - 47.5lbs (90% is 47.7)

--Push press--
No real specific plan going into this except 5 reps per set. I wanted it to be heavy and I wanted to focus on not letting the bar slip down my shoulders, as often happens in my jerk.

80-100-120
120 was not great. Lost my balance a bit on a jerk, made up for it on the next one by really almost losing my balance, really drove hard and it kind of landed on me.

WOD: AMRAP in 9 Minutes
10 Medball Clean and Wall Ball Shots 20/16
20 Lateral Hops (over paralette, each way is 1 rep)

7 rounds + 1 clean/wall ball

Then:
Clean and Jerk complex:
first pull- hold in position 2 (just below knee) for 3s, return bar to floor
superman pull- hold in top position with bar back and shoulders in front of the bar for 3s, return bar to floor
full clean + jerk

Worked up to 175, hit it a couple of times, trying to be tight and pulling the bar back, get good contact in full pull and really stick the jerk. Moderate success.

Thruster/Burpee/KB swing

Partner WOD – 10 minute AMRAP:
10 Thrusters (95/65lb)
6 Burpees
10 Kettlebell Swings (53/35lb)

Only one partner will be moving at a time and cannot advance to the next movement until both partners have completed the movement. For example Partner A does 10 thrusters then Partner B does their 10 thrusters, then they move on. It does not matter who does the movement first so if Partner A starts the thrusters it does not mean they need to start for the burpees.

Paul and I got 4 rounds + 9 KB swings, I went first. Sore as hell from Fran.
