I was planning on doing more Olympic lift practice, but last night I managed to take most of the skin off my left big toe just by tripping in my living room, so that changed my plan a bit. I'm working on technique, of course, but also trying to bring up some of my weak points and sometimes just throwing in things I haven't done in a while, like higher reps. Looking for some sweet sarcoplasm gains.

Oof. Those CG bench sets got hard real quick, which makes sense, considering short rest times and being supersetted with curls. Could've made them easier if I wasn't doing them with a flat back, but meh, that's how I wanted to do them today. And hey, at least I can still power snatch 225 easily enough. That's nice.

And I'm not quite caught up, but I'm going to end it here for now. I want to include some thoughts about Nationals as well as log my last few workouts, and I don't have enough time for that tonight.
