0x81kg

managed to clear up all the stiffness from the body from the day before, so am happy about that. lifts were ok, wish i could drop the weights haha.
i caught the last 81kg on my inner thigh on the way down, to prevent it from slamming but i think it took away strength from my leg. dropping to the squat after, felt unnatural.

2x4x100kg

behind the neck pulldown

7/3
was supposed to power clean and jerk today but legs and back were still very stiff.
failed 80kg power clean and stopped.
oh well. will start again slow next week.
i dont know if it was the monday or weds session that im still recovering from which caused the stiffness but will take the learning lesson from it.
i will try to keep the load low for the days that i do snatch and CJ to see if the rest of the workouts improve. but its still a pity, cos i thought my capacity for oly lifts had went up. oh well.
