The CNS of a very, very small invertebrate

The gym is always excellent fun the day after a max squat session. I was tired going in and frankly crushed coming out. I'd have definitely taken the day off if not for the fact that I'm on my holidays (exotic northern Scotland) next week and need to get the training in.

Thursday 20th August
Snatch warmup
Snatch: 2@33, 2@36, 2@39, 2@42 x 3
Power Jerk: 5@bar, 3@25, 2@35, 2@40, 2@45, 2@50, 2@55, miss@59, 2@55, miss@55, 2@55
C+J: 2@40, 2@45, 2@50, 2@55, 2@60 x 4
Trap bar deadlifts: 3@bar+55, 3@bar+85, 3@bar+100 x 3

All frankly fairly poxy apart from the C+Js. I felt like a 90 year old lady snatching, and there was nothing in the tank for the power jerks. Felt better C+Jing, although I was wishing I'd brought a giant Red Bull to the gym instead of the normal sized one. Just one of those sessions you battle through, I suppose. Tomorrow is the last day of this prep phase, and then a week off - looking forward to it!
