The front squats were a little rough today, I had nothing in my legs for some reason. I was pretty surprised I failed a front squat at 200 because 185 felt pretty easy but when I went for 200 I started to come back up and tipped forward and just couldn't stand it up. Frustrating. I don't know if it's because of being at the Games/traveling/whatever or if I just didn't have it today. The snatches are getting better and better each time, I think I am starting to move under the bar a lot faster than I was a few weeks ago. I still have a problem sometimes of not bringing the bar close enough to my body, therefore every time I snatch I am playing a game of chance as Stephen would say, so I need to work on that. It will just take lots of reps to break that bad habit. Muscle ups felt good, I am still only doing 2 per minute but also am not feeling as tired on those after snatching. When I did this two weeks ago I failed two muscle ups, today I did not fail any. I really do need to start working on muscle ups without a false grip, they would be so much easier. During my Z1 airdyne I got to watch Megan split jerk 185#, nice job Megan!
