    Ha! Could've told you that. I remember the horror of being told about paying €13 to get a bit of shuteye for an hour :)

    Was watching the attempts on the instagerms, "Jesus, that's about ten attempts" then I realized it was on a loop. Derp. What comp is on next week? I thought everything was mothballed till October.

    Saturday 22nd of August
    Ended up deciding yesterday not to make weight after I saw the start list. Was only 7 girls competing so there was no point and REALLY wanted it to be a stress free competition.

    Ended up going really well..felt ridiculously relaxed, coached myself and had plenty of time as I was the 2nd last lifter. Was helping a beginner to time her warmups too so that was a fantastic distraction.

    Snatches
    44/46/48 :) Extremely happy! Played it safe and went for small jumps. +1kg Comp PB

    Clean and Jerks

    Was tired going into these but legs felt great
    60/63x/63 Comp PB +1kg

    Pressed out the first 63kg! Ended up with a comp total PB of 111kg @53.5kg BW

    Went back to RWC after and finished my prog for the day

    Front squats
    35kg x 3
    45kg x 2
    55kg x 1
    59kg x 3 (5sets)

    Clean Deadlifts
    66kg x 3 (5sets)

    Didnt get vids of any lifts cos I was adamant that I wanted today to be completely stressfree
