It's really easy to get wrapped up in the results of a single workout but it's just a cog in the wheel that is the season as a whole. Today didn't go exactly as planned, but things rarely due--it's probably human nature, or maybe it's just me, but I always set my sights high for every workout and no matter what happens I seem to step away after thinking of what I could have done better.
   Flying 25m times were really slow today, it could be because of a couple of factors but I'll just list off a couple

  • It was my first time doing them outside, hard to compare across facilities
  • Wind was cycling
  • First time doing flys since February
  • Still a bit run down from my cold
  • Tired

Weights weren't great, but they were alright. I was planning on doing 4x2@155lb's for power snatch but ended up doing 4x2@160lb's because I was feeling pretty good. However I started to miss some of the catches in my last two sets. Front squats were unusual, I tried 270lb's but it was much too heavy so I went to 260lb's, still couldn't handle it so did 225lb's-235lb's. The funny part was I did 255x5 last week--I guess I was pretty exhausted by the time I got to them.
