Training May 4, 2015

First day of a two week testing cycle.  Interested in what I find out.

Front Squat
1 RM
335 lbs. (Second attempt) (15 lbs. PR)

I didn't know where this was going to go.  Since there was no time constraint, I built up a little slower than normal.  I went 135 (5), 185 (5), 225 (3), 255 (1), 285 (1), 315 (1), 335 (F) and 335 (1 with a side of mashed potatoes).

The struggle definitely was not in my legs.  Holy core!

Close Grip Bench Press
1 RM
255 lbs. (Second attempt) (5 lbs. PR)

This went pretty well.  I lost a little focus on the first attempt at 255 and hit my sticking point without enough force.  Got it (pretty) easily the second time.

Power Snatch
1 RM
165 lbs.

This was absolutely horrible!  I had no confidence at all on the platform.  My technique is a mess.  I need to snatch more.
