95 kg in the Clean! Congrats!! Good work!!

Thanks! :)
I'm kinda proud of that one, considering that I've only practiced them 5-10 times during the 6 months I've been OL-lifting. ;)

Snatch:
1x3 40 kg
5x3 50 kg
5x3 60 kg

Power jerk:
1x5 20 kg
5x4 40 kg

Clean:
2x3 60 kg
5x3 70 kg

Snatch pulls:
1x3 80 kg
3x2 90 kg
1x2 80 kg


Working on my catch in the snatch... had a very uneven day.
Coach decided that I should go for power jerks since they were natural to me.
My cleans are coming along fine now.
Good power in the snatch pulls though.

F-squat 4x3 50 kg (speed)

Chins ramping up: 1x3 BW +20 kg 1x1 BW +35 kg, 1x1 40 kg, 1xfail 50 kg I was 10 cm(4 inches) from my chin...

OHP Ramping up 1x3 52,5 1x2 60 kg, 1x2 65 kg (got up to my old PR at least)

Chins 1x10 BW

Not a good day... felt really tired and worn. The technique on the snatches was decent but I felt wobbly in the catch at weights that should not be a problem at all. >:(

All of my joints hurts so I'll just gym surf for two weeks now.
Beginning a new routine then and want to be fresh by then. ;)

Olympic lifting - light day

Snatch warm up: 3x3 30 kg, 3x3 35 kg, 2x3 40 kg

Snatch 1x3 45 kg 2x3 50 kg 3x3 55 kg

Snatch pull + snatch 1x1 55 kg

Power cleans 5x3 70 kg

Power Jerk 1x4 20 kg, 6x3 40 kg

Emphasis on technique today. I know what to work on = pull the bar even closer on snatches so I'll do one snatch pull followed by a snatch.
Tried it once today and it payed off immediately.  ;D

Skipped heavy snatch pulls.

3x3 40 kg
2x3 50 kg

F-squat ramping up:
1x2 80 kg
1x1 90 kg
1x1 100 kg

OHS
3x3 50 kg

Shoulder compound set
OHP 40 kg
Bent over laterals 10 kg DB:s
DB swing 8 kg

Back compound set 1x10
BB row 60 kg
Long pull 70 kg
Chins BW (I stopped at eight didn't want to push it too far)
90° RDR 45 kg

Chest compound set 1x10
Dips BW +10 kg

Felt awkward to start with power cleans so my technique was a bit uneven. The power jerks are still REALLY new to me but they're getting better.
OHS was good and easy. There're two weeks until my new program starts so I'll keep on gym surfing a bit more. ;)
