Squatting in oly shoes.........strange but doable.

Worked up to 220 and failed it... :p

Shoulder inhibited bench too much to do anything of worth so did some snatch...

Several snatch PBs :) nothing major but at 60kgs I'm well happy :)

I'll do more soon no doubt ^^
 
After nationals I'm going to really push my oly shoe squatting to see if it gets anywhere. I'm liking it at the moment (200kg paused!), but it's having to stay secondary for now.
 
It's a different feeling but interesting, my next comp is in November so I've got time to play around :D

Nice paused squat, starting to enjoy them myself :)

Lame. You, ice and Dom would butcher Olympic lifts if any of you actually tried. :mad:

Sundays session

Snatch
Worked up to a PB of 65 but technique was lacking so backed off the weight and worked on some more technique at 40. A lot of overhead squatting at get used to the catch position.


Clean
Did some power clean but was bullying the weight, switched to hang power clean, felt good. Need to work on full cleans next week.


CURLSZZ
So many curls with huge (8kg) dumbells, the make my bicep feel better :)

Hah! :D

I do intend to give it some attention after nationals. My ankle so far has been (very) slowly improving for months now, so there is hope that I'll be able to overhead squat properly.
