18:58 OHP Test (omega gasssed)
NO ENDETZIT, forgot!
Extended gap due to various reasons new job training/social/family events. Was planning to just take it easy and it wasnt going particularly well but then we ended up hitting the 52.1 kg snatch! Finally snatch above OHP max proven at the end, but we were pretty wrecked so maybe we could OHP fully rested.
The lifts are obviously like 10cm deficits with the baby plates (even my 20's are smaller then olympic) so quite difficult overcoming gravity in the middle and catching clean with no high heels (hence why we want to power clean).
Was pretty gassed after the snatches so cleans are struggling, but thats just how it goes, we go as hard first and it flows from there.
OHP test at the end, people are like "herpty derpty i can snatch xxx", but then its a weight they can just strict press so is it really a snatch? Obviously not happy with our OHP (weakest after squats), want to add it in somewhere maybe squat day, but again where pretty maxed out atm.
My stats:
189 cm / 6'2"
104 kg / 229.3 lbs work clothes LUL, next day, forgot
