20 mins session with the bar and some home made bumbers round at Maurice's garage - total weight was 27.5kgs. This was a skill practice session, I needed to be fast and precise. It was also to give me a few cues for when it comes around to the comp on saturday.
Power Cleans
Split Cleans
Split Jerks (without any dip)
Snatch Grip High Pulls / Split Snatches
I did plenty of sets of between 3-5 reps on each exercise and I was puffing like a train. I felt more aggressive/committed in each of the phases as I tried to get timing and technique down. Of course it is easy to do this with no weight, but I have another session tomorrow in which I'd like to show the same stuff.
Maurice has talked me out of shelling out a load of cash for gear which I am grateful. He said he'd lend me a singlet type thing too....I'm grateful but apprehensive!!

Mouse here,
ReplyDeletePhotos of you and the singlet would be considered compulsory in some circles!
I've competed twice so far both times with shorts and T-shirt .. no singlet yet.
ReplyDeleteGoodluck and have a blast. Seeing many seasoned lifters perform smoothly and explosively really motivated me to improve on all aspects. I'm sure the same will happen with you.
