Thurs - 9/24/09

Movement Prep - Croc Breath, Z-Drills, Hollow Practice

- Pull Up BWx2 - 5 sets
I hit my head on the rafters my pipe is hanging from...so I guess this hollow practice and new technique work is doing the trick. ;-)

Alt w/

-Neg. Pistol BWx5/5 - 5 sets
I alternated legs each rep, took it slow on the way down, and rolled out at the bottom. My left leg felt really weird the first 2 sets and then started feeling stronger and more like the right.

-Snatch vo2(15:15) 16KGx7 - 20 sets

Sun - 9/27/09

Movement Prep - Croc Breath (R phase Z drills earlier in the day)

-Assisted Pistol BWx5/5 - 4 sets
I used the door knobs of an open door and tried to pull on them as little as possible. I also put extra effort into cork screwing my leg into the ground on the way down and up.

Alt w/

-BUP 20KGx3/3, 24KGx3/3, 28KGx1/1, 32KGx1/1
Very happy with this! I didn't think I had a chance with the 32 but it felt good. The left was a solid rep up, pause, down...the right went up good, pause, then got a little shaky and came down quick.

I've been liking my sessions lately. One switch will be snatching twice/week, the volume is getting to high to keep it at 3. The tension work has been feeling very strong. I think a lot of it has to do with the Fast and Loose drills, getting back into Z(doing a lot of this trough out the day), and finally realizing I don't have to kill myself every session. Staying away from trying to get that last rep and falling to crap. Push it hard and when it's over...it's over!
