    i've begun to get as excited for it as my snatch work. for quite awhile it seemed like my jerk was kind of stifled which made me feel a preference for working on the snatch and dreading my c+j days. things are good now though. 2/20 Hang Muscle Snatch, w/straps 95x3 115x3 135x3 Snatch DL +...

    once again, damn swim, i was just looking through your log...225x5 Push Press. I think that's my current split jerk PR. but i will say that my form and efficiency has improved quite a bit. i don't think i'll work up to heavier than that for 5s but i'm hoping for a single off the rack...

    no lol, i'm an idiot and didn't pay attention to what i wrote in there. it's supposed to be a pull complex. it's a high pull off the ground with two hang pulls done in succession after. it's this same complex pictured in this video i already posted...

    i think you're doing a better job of fatigue management than i am. i pushed as far as i felt i could for my squat hyper volume and i haven't really bounced back yet to push on into the strength volume ahead of me.
