Monday there was exceptional soreness in the triceps and mid-back/scap area from Sunday’s chin-over-bar bidness. Front squats felt good. Trying to nudge the datum. All sets with the 53#er on the second EMOM. Working on being more mindful of when I’m calling it in with reps and weights I know I can comfortably do, whilst also listening to my body.
Oh-lifting went well; working through those mental road blocks. First time doing that type of jerk balance. I nailed, eh, every other one. Noob. Though the next-day demo for Kaytay already felt faster and less awkward. Wanted to get all those C+J’s at 125# and did.
Jumped in on the class workout to finish out the week in the gymnasium. Shoulders, mid- and low-back pretty spent from the jerk werk. Excited to get outdoors for the weekend.
