    I'm guessing doing the fast lifts on the light day with just the bar is to keep the pattern fresh.
    Nice work as always.

    Yes, mainly. Also to try again the squat snatch. They said no master dropped as low as me in the squat snatch, but when i got real sick on an overseas trip, i lost my sense of balance, and could no longer do it. So, years later, i am trying it again to see how things stand.
