Wednesday 4th July
Morning mobility routine, pistol 2L+2R, OLP-OAP 2L+2R.
Soju and tuba (GTG)
8 singles @28kg
Approximately 30 minutes between each press.
Snatch session
Snatch, 24kg, 5 reps every 30 sec, 5 minutes (50 total)
After so many snatches with 28kg, the 24kg does not seem that heavy anymore. I intend to do only snatches this summer, to work the finest details I need to improve.
During my snatch test in February, finishing the test was pretty easy (it was only 20kg), but my lockout was less than perfect: I even had 2 no-counts. The main reason is that I was not taming the arc properly and ended up propelling the bell just slightly a bit in front. This is my focus now: taming the arc.
Cues (in sequence): elbow close, punch up, stay 1 sec in the lockout.
