    Snatches were okay for the first time snatching in ages. Right hip was twisting inwards forcing me onto my toe but saved it both times on 60. Jerk blocks would make jerking much easier as lowering the bar destroys me. Expecting bad doms.

    Great session, snatches from aove the knee felt great, below the knee felt awkward though. Lack of doing the movement before. Will get better. Clean complex was hard, 85 was supposed to not include a front squat. Jerks hurt the palma of my hand due to m finger being messed up. Pulls were awkward at first until I realised the bar needs to start a bit further away from you. Was banging y shins on the set of 60.

    Arnold presses from squat are getting much easier, mainly due to my bottom position starting to improve a little. Snatches were fine to 60 but then my hip started acting up and knee started to touch the ground so didn't go higher, happened a little on the 54's as well. Snatch balances were good, jerks are a pain in the ass without blocks. Lowering jerks is awful. Squats were great. Was aiming for 135 as a 2rm. First rep was easy, second rep was easy enough so went for a third and although it was hard, it was manageable. That's the most weight I've ever squatted so pretty pleased with that.

    Got some work done on my hips and they feel much loser but snatches were just all wrong today. Going to stop going from the floor for a while. 101 clean was nice, was a little over excited and just hung out in the hole for a bit too long, but recovery was still pretty easy, easier than 95 actually. The Jerk was so incredibly close :( 103 were bad attempts. 110 was easier this week.

    Awful session, was falling asleep at the desk in work, rushed to the gym, no time for a warm up so straight into things. Had to skip out on a round of the snatch complex earlier. Recovery from a 70kg clean felt hard so yeah, not a great day. Stuff got done though

    Ran out of time so had to cut some squats and jerks out. Had to play a soccer match after this so that was fun. On a plus, the snatches today were actually quite nice, bar wasn't looping so I was happy, seems to have clicked in my mind what i need to do.
