A. Squat clean;build to a max

Hit 205. Jumped to 220 to try and PR and high-pulled the shit out it and didn’t get under the bar at all!

here’s 220: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T6B-v-hMfTM
B. Concentric only front squats from blocks (drop from the top); 3, 3,
3, 3, 3; rest 3 min

145, 155, 165, 170, 170

Really pushed it here, almost stalled out on the third rep of 170 each time
C. Power snatch from high blocks; 1 rep on the 30 seconds for 20 reps
@moderate load, high speed

5 reps at 85lbs, 5 reps at 95lbs, 5 reps at 105lbs, 5 reps at 110lbs

Everything was nice and fast here, like this method for power snatch tech work.

Splits: Finished Front Squats at 5:15 (set of 5, including a squat clean to open each set), finished DL at 13:22 (all sets of 1, dropped from the top), finished AD at 18:40.

A couple of thoughts from this:

was worried about doing TnG sets of DLs because of the amount of reps. Each individual set of one felt fine, it was just mentally daunting to know I still had x many reps to go. I was slow as fuck on the AD. DU (this was the start of my toe issue also FYI), it helped to have someone else count my reps because I tend to undercount when I count in my head, and that adds up if I’m 2-3 reps short on each set of 25. Shoulder burn was limiter on the DU, couldn’t get sets bigger than 20ish after about 50 reps.
