Last week Was a slow week. I am struggling with my jerk at the moment and still don’t feel comfortable in the movement. So rather than going to my max last week I spent some extra time on getting more reps at a lower weight to increase the time and competency of this movement.
This week I plan on putting all my training together on this blog so I still remain focused on other goals. My goals are:
Skills: Snatch, Clean & jerk, Butterfly pull ups & sprint technique.
