Mehhhhhh. Snatches continue to feel heavy overhead . This is annoying. The pull is so easy but being aggressive with it overhead is still not where I want it to be. All my reps today were so slow and not aggressive in the turnover at all, I don't think I was happy with a single rep today (video). I talked to Mark about it and he said it took him awhile to get back into the groove of snatching after he took time off for his back, so that made me feel a bit better. All I'm saying is, a 135 power snatch shouldn't feel heavy. 

Snatch pulls, on the other hand, were really easy (video). 

1-arm DB rows were fine. 

The burpee/KB piece was really hard, I was dreading this all day. It was tough because there would be a few seconds before each minute when I wasn't sure if I could get in a whole BBJ before the top of the minute. I thought I did a good job of keeping my transitions fast, I didn't really pause between the burpees and KB. I just slowed down on burpees. It's hard for me to keep a good rhythm on BBJ if they're not box jump overs, doing a burpee directly in front of the box is sort of awkward. I could tell during the third minute I was already slowing down. There was also some confusion about my time, I sort of stopped counting after awhile because Mark was counting for me but then I think one of us got mixed up? When I stopped Mark said my time was 6:22 but that would have been way too fast, so Stephen said it was probably closer to 7:22, which makes a lot more sense. I'm not really sure what happened. Oh well. Either way it was very painful and I wasn't happy with my performance. I didn't dig in hard enough to push the burpees. Transitions were good but the speed wasn't where it needed to be.
