18 kg snatches

walk 2 miles, home w/ 45 lbs. of groceries

18 kg: snatch, 18L+18R in 2:30 - was going to do more but herniated disc area was bothering me on first side so switched side, everything felt great, did same number, and stopped.  probably hip kicked out to the left too much, will do a second set and see what we can do about making it not push on the bad disc.

Rest 5:00

18 kg: snatch, 13L+13R in 2:00 - much better, that was it.  Also noticed it's possible to overdo this - goal is kettlebell straight up, not directly over center of gravity but not hip kicked under, either.  Probably has to have somewhat different mechanics with a heavier weight but, for now, this is good.

Rest 5:00

15L+15R in 1:25 - _so_ much easier when it's faster

NB: this is the end of our six-week blitz for Ridgewood Jamboree so purposefully taking it as easy and taking as many days off as I feel the need for.
