5 minutes= 94 snatches

That's quite a jump from 80. Today I did my last pre-TSC snatch test with the goal being to lift my psychological dampers and rip out as many as I can. It worked. It's amazing how your mind can screw with you and keep you from fulfilling your potential. I was able to nail 94 snatches with the 24 kilo in 5 minutes. I know I can hit the 100 mark on Saturday, so that's good. Pull ups went well with 14 (but will be better) and the deadlift I'm going to do tomorrow at Diesel as there is no chalk in Equinox. I've snatched with chalk and without, and I'm consistently better without. Something may not be right there, but now is not the time to fix something that isn't broken, I'll figure it out later. That being said, my hands are perfect. Haven't torn them since that fateful Max VO2 a couple months ago.

    Are those regular pull-ups or with a chick on your back?

    Nice work, man. 100+ will be easy once you factor in the thrill of competition.

    I figured as much, but thanks for the confirmation. Once I get the Stryper blasting I'll be on my way. Just kidding. Kind of.

    OK, for your TSC highlights I want to see the yellow and black spandex, but Zubaz will work, and "Honestly" blearing in the background while your banging out snatches.

    Stryper is one of the bands I don't like to admit I listened to in the eighties...I am going to listen to some Slayer...
