    I'm still cutting my top pull, and my first pull feels weak after changing my setup a bit to make the third pull more comfortable. I'm hoping to hit this next thursday. Getting plenty of height, the positioning just isn't there.

    I really want to dial in my pull; now it still looks odd.

    I should not have been at all recovered for my workout today. 3-4 hours of sleep. But it worked...

    Snatch Balance
    20x3
    40x3
    40x3
    50x3
    60x2

    I feel a lot more comfortable with these, now.

    Snatch
    20x3
    40x3
    50x3
    60x2
    65
    70
    75
    77 - PR!
    80x
    80x
    80x

    All the misses were caused by losing my back angle off the floor, leaving the bar forward through the pull and into the catch. Need to add some RDLs or some other targeted back work I think.

    Nice and easy since I PRed snatching. Did some technique work at the end, again. I'm experimenting a lot with my setup (stance, grip width) and seeing how that influences my pull. I'm starting to find a sweet spot where I'm in a good position for the second pull, am able to fully extend, and still receive the bar comfortably without having to move my feet too far.

    Getting used to high bar still; I feel like I'm doing a better of job of staying upright now, aside from my last rep of the last set, which looked like shit when I paused for a second in the hole.
