Was very tired when I got up this morning and have loads of study to do so I debated even going to training
I went
turned out it was PR testing day. I had NO idea. Apparently they've been saying it for the last 2 weeks so I must have been in la la land or something.

Snatch - 30kg (+2)
CNJ - 45kg (+1)

current bw - 81.5kg

I should mention that I did successfully snatch 33kg, stood up with it... then got a bit overexcited or something and threw it behind me like a complete gobsh!te. I have no idea. Anyway so yeah it doesn't count and I tried again and failed completely

Pretty disappointed with the CNJ. I tried 48 a few times and couldn't even clean it. Hadn't brought any food or anything so I was fairly exhausted by that stage. Any other day of the week I'd say I could clean 48 in my sleep, it's the jerk i fight with

Overall it wasn't bad though! I never thought I'd even snatch 28 again nevermind a PR of 30 and never even thought of 33! And I got to update our PR board for both

Saw gf training a bit again at the end. I want to be her when I grow up :P:D

Time for pizza and study now!

Yeah what alf said. Smothered with a cold and cramming big time for my exam in 2 weeks. Dreaming of my holidays at the end of oct when i will just move into the gym

ninamc

I see. Wishing you all the best for your exam. Hopefully all the hard work be worth it, and the barbell will still be there when you're finished. You still need a bit of downtime though

Helloooo!
I finally started to feel a bit better last night and I was very sad at missing so much training so I lemsip'd up & went to oly today

Very happy with the jerks too

I've been that soldier. On holidays, got up in the middle of the night and so I wouldn't make any noise I pulled the heavy door after me before turning on light.

Except when I reached out for the light switch in pitch dark, I managed to slot my finger between the door frame and heavy closing door.

Crunch.
