Things are transferringggg! The breakthrough with snatch I had this weekend continues! Today's practice went well. There were 3 sets of snatch and Ellyn and I changed my warmup slightly to include the pole pause combo thingy (I really should just pick a name for it) from this weekend. I should apologize right now because I have no video or photos from today because I'm a goober and left my camera in my unpacked bag from this weekend. Go Deacs.
Back to practice.
The first lift was hang snatch and then a snatch up to 85%. There wasn't a lot of big mistakes or corrections to be made with either of those lifts.. Some minor corrections were to keep/start shrugging up and keeping the bar closer. But big things like my crrazy feet weren't even mentioned! And I think there was a smile or two by both Ellyn and myself. Woah. And it was a Monday. Hang snatch was not as smooth or powerful as my new and improved from-the-floor snatches are, but they are still much better than they were a week ago. Progress.
RDL's are getting better too... I've got better form and have been able to do more weight. Progress.
I think I'm finally over my panic about front squats. I'm not sure if it was from the progress made this weekend in snatch or just being further down the road from my last front squat adventure- either way front squats went up to one heavy single and I had another PR. Up 3 kilos from 2 weeks ago. Once we reached our top number for front squat for that day, we then did 3x2 at a lighter weight. After the front squats came all the auxiliary lifts/exercises. There were improvements there too both in weight and form. Another good day in the books. I've got a lot more good days than bad days.. I guess that's what happens when you're where you're supposed to be, doing what you're supposed to do.
