Power day
A1 Power snatch
1x3 132
7x3 143 (the next to last set I failed the second rep first due to technique, then I took 2 more afer that, so it was. 1 fail 2 3)
These were a lot faster than before and for the bunch of tripples I had a 11 lbs increase from last time.
Filmed one of the sets:
On the video it looks like my lower back is flexed, however, it didn't feel like this at all during the lift (I usually feel it if my lower back isn't flexed) could it be that the anlge or something else makes it look bad? Regardless, it does look like I need to be more tight in my core. One good thing is that it's more explosive than before.
B2 Hang clean high pull
8x3 181.5
about 5 lbs up from last time. I don't expect the assistance lifts here to progress as much as the main lifts, aslong as the power snatch and power clean are increasing, I'm happy.
C1 Speed bench
8x4 110
Same weight as last time, but better speed. I'll up the weight next time according to how much my bench progresses
C2 45 degree back extension
3x12 33
C2.2 Wide bent over row to low abs
1x5 132
1x5 154
1x5 159.5
1x6 154 (bad rom on last rep)
No increase from last time here. I think I need to change my focus here to some different exercises
Note: C2.2 means I first did supersets of C1 and C2, but since C1 has 8 sets and C2 4 I did C2.2 for the remaining 4 of the C1 sets
D1 High cable side bends
1x12 61.6
2x12 69.3
Shoulder stability is way up here, it's barely a problem anymore
D2 Cable ext rotation.
3x10 11
D3 False reverse grip cable curl
2x12 46.2
1x10 46.2
PWO: The usual
