A nice big cup of toughen the fuck up

Wednesday - took it easy, iced the dodgy quad, munched Ibuprofen.
Thursday - leg felt OK, did a few very light overhead squats, caught up on the assistance work.

Today - decided to do some work on hang power snatches and jerks, and leave squatting type stuff out for now. Had a decent session of hang power snatches, then tore a callous. Jerks were a bit pants, maybe a result of the torn callous but that's no excuse for lack of focus. Grr.

Dynamic warmup and foam rolling, glute activation
Overhead squats: 5@bar x 4 (moving grip inwards)
Drop snatch: 3@bar, 3@25 x 2, 3@30
Hang power snatch: 3@30, 2@32.5, 3@35, 3@37.5 x 5
Jerk dips, jerk catches, split jerks, and some experimental front squats all with 25kg
Jerks: 2@35, 2@40, 2@45, 2@50, 1@54, 1@58, 1@61 x 5 and 2 misses

Assistance:
Step-ups and scap pushups
Some static stretching and a little bit more foam rolling to finish.

Frankly, I am sick of training in a bloody building site and I'm sick of injuries and stuff going wrong. This has been a very frustrating week.
