Strength workout today! Yea! I love these days. Oh Shit! Squat snatches and a 1 rep max OverHead Squats. Um, maybe I should pass...
Skill/Strength: Squat Snatch
65#
Strength: OverHead Squat 1-1-1-1-1
135# PR!!!
In the past I totally would have skipped this workout and by the look of the board today, it looked like a few of my fellow CraicHeads did. I have said it before and I'll say it again, but I'm not going to get any better at something if I keep avoiding it. Especially one of my biggest Goats, OverHead Squats.
I look at it as voting. I have had heated arguments with people about politics and candidates and at the end of the conversation I continually find out that most of these people don't vote. Shut the F up! Your opinion doesn't matter to me. Just like I can't feel compelled to cry about not being able to do a movement if I never put any effort into it. I can't complain about if I don't do it. So now that I went today, let me complain.... :)
Squat Snatches... Oh man I had a tough time with them. I just can't get my head into the movement. I don't know if it's my limited range of motion or just a fear of sucking at something. I only worked up to 65# because I just wanted to work the movement. I didn't do very well. I have a new Goat now. JOY! Add it to the list.
Oh Baby! OHS not my favorite movement, but I have been making an effort to work on them and I think it payed off today. 1 rep max, 135# Never in a million years would I have thought I could ever do this. With my junky shoulders and mental blocks I would have been happy to continue to use the bar, but what good would that do? I had written down that my 1 rep max was 125# before, but I know that I didn't get my butt down toward the ground on that. Since that's the case 95# was my 1 rep max. I crushed it! It felt really good to get it done. Johnny Deadlift was nice enough to take a video of my PR.
Check it out!
P.S. Bite me Ray! <--- New TapeFactory for a few movements.
