11-22 (today)
P. Sn 77/3 88/1 x 3
P. Cl. 90/3 x 2
C&J 101/2+1 115/1 x 4
BTN Jerk up to 120, missed 130 twice. Fuck that weight
Overhead supports 130, 140, 140 held for 5 seconds
Basically an overhead 1/4 squat with jerk grip, then just held the bar there
BTN press in jerk split 40/5 x 2 45/5
Good mornings 3 x 3 - 100, 105, 105

Went to Mike's Gym to get some coaching from Mike. He suggested the overhead supports and BTN jerks. The problem seems to be actually supporting the weight overhead like I said before so I'm going to try fixing that instead of doing row/pull ups and stuff. We'll see how it works.

On good mornings I did them with almost straight legs (maybe 10-15 degree bend in the knees at the bottom to facilitate a flat back). I never do round-back good mornings because you never round in weightlifting. for powerlifting though they have a place, even though I still think if you get flexbile enough to never round your back in the squat you are better off. For the deadlift a rounded upper back is ok because it essentially lengthens your arms, but a round lower back is never acceptable.

Light day, thankfully

Snatch 72/2 82/2 x 3
Snatch pull with pause at knee 92/2 95/2 x 2
Jerks 100/2 x2 102/2 x2
Back squat 105/4 115/4 x 3
Behind the neck press + OHS 52/(3+1) 54/(3+1) x 2


Glutes and hamstrings still tired and sore but I got everything today. Jerks were the hardest because I've been doing a lot of jerking since Ita left. Lats get really tired and don't recover when I'm jerking and jerking every single day, and especially from the high intensity jerking.
