    Snatch
    135x1x3-Feel like absolute crap. Off balance, no speed, head isn't there
    155x1 still crappy
    155x1 still crappy
    175x1-F I never fail at this weight. Tried to give myself a gut check and proceed
    175x1 crappy
    185x1-had to walk it out to catch. Almost called it quits. Decided to give it another try. Cued "shave the skin off my legs".
    185x1- Like it was a pillow
    195x1-smooth
    205x1- This flew out my hip crease after extension. I was pretty happy with it. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZD6nnqEqv_M
    215x1 Smoothest I've ever but this weight up
    I had to cut off there cause I had a client and had took to much time warming up and not being an idiot. I finished the rest of my workout 5 hours later (I do work at a gym, so this is very easy to do when needed)

    Haha -- the things I miss by lifting with tunes! I'm glad I don't know who that was.

    Nice lifts lately.
