Bw 89.4kg at a ridiculous 3pm weigh in…it was suppose to be 1pm. I haven’t been eating a lot to gain weight but to feel strong enough to train. I couldn’t be assed to eat so much food and take 2-3 shakes a day…but I feel strong
-1.2kg from the Crystal Palace comp.

120 x 0
Snatch comp
118 x 1, solid, felt light, good line, weird squat up, but no issue, powered up and took a few steps backwars? lol, never done this
122 x 0, close, needed to stay over a bit more
125 x 0, not hugely close, should have taken 122 again, next time I’ll see where I’m at and open on 122 if I’m going in with some form
had not much rest and it was me back on to the platform…
Clean and Jerk

135 x 0; behind
C&J comp
143 x 0; rubbish Jerk, where was I? Not on the platform…
143 x 1; much better, stuck it, a bit of a weight for the down signal but I’m strong over head (strong abs) so no issues for me
150 x 0; Clean okay, Jerk in front, need to fine tune this but I have set aside time to remedy this over the next 18weeks until the British.

261 total : 2nd
Really happy with it. I haven’t been lifting much but focusing on my squats since January, a bit of ring rust. I was smoother and technically sharper when I was hammering the lifts more pre xmas London Comp. I have 2 weeks left of the Russian Squat Routine then I’ll go to a 4 week strength phase then 4week Power Phase and then I have 9-10 weeks before the British where I’ll hammer out full lifts and fune tune my lifts.
