One word to describe today "meh". I wasn't sore but I was flat. I felt like I was falling asleep during practice and had no "pop" at all while jumping. Normally I would be upset after a workout like today but I think I'm just too tired to be upset. 
   Jumping didn't go as I had hoped, I was flat and having trouble at take-off. I had maybe one jump that was respectable but beyond that I was jumping terribly. I was also having trouble carrying horizontal velocity, since I switched over to double-arm I seem to have a much larger vertical impulse than I'm used to--I think it is because I am getting out of position before I plant and sinking my hips as I swing through. I need to relearn to run through the board while still dropping my right arm back. 
   Weights were flat too, I was snatching pretty well up to 155lb's but as soon as I tried 160lb's I feel apart, it felt like a huge difference. I might have just been getting fatigue from so many sets though.
