Jim vs. Shoulder Press, Power Snatch

Still working my way back from being sick. Decided to go for a two-part workout today, with strength and strength/metcon components.

Shoulder press
85 x 3
105 x 3
125 x 3
115 x 3
95 x 3

That was tougher than it probably should’ve been, peaking at 90% of my 3RM. But then, shoulder press has been my bane from the start, so I shouldn’t be surprised.

Power snatch x 2, on the minute for ten minutes

Only used 95lbs for this, but still felt it. I really tried to work on keeping the bar close to my body — especially my thighs — on the pull. That went… so-so, frankly.

The other thing I changed up today was moving my stretching from my warm-up to theĀ endĀ of the workout. We’ll see how that goes.
