Struggling with a cold

Snatch: 40, 50, 60, 75, 84, 88, 93X, 97, 100X, 100, 100, 100, 100 (maybe in comp), 100X, 100X, 100, 100X, 100

C&J: 60, 84, 100, 115, 129, 136X

Cleans: 143X, 145

I felt relatively good at 2PM and decided then to do what Cathal had done on the forum. I then went and walked dog in the heat and then played 2 rounds of crazy golf in the heat and by 5PM my cold had left me feeling pretty wiped out. It was over 30C heat in gym tonight.

Snatches around 93/97 mark was wondering if 5 at a 100 was going to be possible. Gave it a bash but got a fair number of fails and there is a technical problem creeping into my snatches which results in right side of bar being slightly further forward and I end up having to step forward with right foot to try and save lift. This is happening with more frequency and it is becoming irritating as a number of lifts with decent height in pull are being lost. I think bar is rolling out further on right side when I get ready to lift. One of the saves was pretty sweet in an ugly way will have to see if I can get it uploaded. Getting a little peeved with lack of progress in snatch, 100's day in day out, need to get moving.

Jerks were not really surprising. Legs were wiped from cleans due to cold and took some effort to pop even 129 up. 136 I just had nothing left in legs.

143 clean left me bouncing across the back of the platform, strength was there just a brain fart. 145 was OK but hardly had energy to get out of it. Left it at that, felt fairly run down by time I left.

  1. Right hand side bar drift - anything to do with your rhs rotator cuff?
