tttTD (OHS/C2B/Psn/HSPU)
117 – like everybody, i knew the bulk of the time would be spent in the power snatch. I do think I have such a negative connotation here that it effects me a little so I need to work on a little better positive self talk here. OHS felt heavier than it should’ve today and after my first set the negative self talk of that I might not finish the snatch crept in. I had a problem of keeping balance in the OHS as I kept losing the bar forward or more accurately losing my balance and weight shift into my toes., so not sure what I missed in tightness or mobilizing in warm up but it felt off and slowed me down a ton of the squatting. Finished the set around 2 minutes or a little after and really expected to be around 1:30, but oh well. My plan on c2b was to go for it and see what happens. Did a set of 15 and then back up again pretty quickly for a set of 10, and then a quick set of 6…..I wanted to see if and where I would fall apart, and even though this is a strategy I will never probably use it was good to feel it out and see what happened. I did a set of 7 and 6&6 to finish, I know I rested to much bt those smaller sets. Then the snatch I tried to formulate a plan but was just trying to grab and go, around rep 9-18 I was trying to do a rep every 8-9 seconds. At this point I was afraid I wasn’t going to finish the snatch but at the 20 rep mark and time ticking away I found a way to push through being extremely uncomfortable. I had to really grind through a couple of snatch reps when I really wasn’t ready but was a win in the end. Got in 7 hspu with limited time. I took a gamble with c2b and it didn’t pay off but overall when I reflected on the pushing the pace on the gymnastics movement I wasn’t down on myself at all, glad I tried it and glad I found a way to grind for the snatch
