16 kg snatch

Walk 2 mi in really cold weather (for me and for here, anyway - 18F)

16 kg: snatch:

Slow - 15L + 15R in 2:45 - lots of time resting overhead - goal pace was 10/min, got pretty close to that as this was around 11/min but didn't check time until the end, was just going by feel.

Did a few reps where I waited to break hips on down swing and got a much more explosive, and much easier, up as a result.  Need to do this more consistently.

Breathing not stressed and recovered quickly.

32L+32R in 3:20, pace is 96 reps in 5:00, pretty good.  Longest set per switch, really tried for playing chicken w/ hips on the way down and exhale on hip snap on the way up, didn't get it every rep but kept on trying and got most, especially on the first side.  Also worked on flipping straight over in both directions.

Today, 94 reps total in 2 sets, and that will be enough.  Lifting earlier than usual and in short time on a busy day.

Later, pressed 24 kg for a couple of singles each side using the bell I keep upstair.

Also got in a second walk of about 1 mile, maybe a little more.
