Meh, power clean and push jerk was pretty pathetic, 165 doesn't seem very good. 125 and 145 were super crisp off the shoulders but the push jerk at 165 was basically a half press/half jerk. I'm already pretty awkward with push jerks and not being able to pause between the clean and the jerk was tough at the heavier weight. Once I felt the slight press out at 165 I called it there, even though I know I'm capable of more. 

The 20 ground to overhead went really well! Brandie told me the competition time cap for this event was two minutes so I definitely wanted to beat that. I tried to basically not rest at all between singles, there were probably two reps where I had to take a few breaths but overall I was moving pretty well. Austin and Brandie said all my reps looked crisp, and I asked Austin if my knees were locked out on all my reps and he said yes. Sweet!

The 10:00 piece was nice and chill. Wall walks felt good. 

The hollow to superman were pretty awkward at first, it was hard for me to roll from the superman to the hollow hold without rushing it. The classes had a good laugh when I demonstrated these hehe.
