DCW

Work up to snatch opener (65kg)

Work up to clean & jerk opener (95kg)(f)

Deficit clean pulls 5 x 3 @ 85kg (standing on 45# iron plate)

Notes:  This doesn't look like much on paper, but it was incredibly grueling.  Performing both competition lifts on the same day is extremely taxing.  My snatch at 65kg was rock-solid.  Chris had me take one at 70kg, but I couldn't stabilize in the bottom.  Legs were zapped by the time I moved to clean & jerk.  Jerk wasn't aggressive enough.  Need to drive like hell under the bar and get it back over the center of my body.  I used up a ton of energy standing up out of the hole at 95kg; I had no energy left for the jerk.  I'm curious to see how this goes next weekend at the NOVA Open.  I'll probably open at 90kg instead, and then go from there.
