Workout:
9:15am:
Skill work: Snatch
2x3 position snatch 44kg
2x3 50kg
2x1 60kg

I am in love with the snatch. Today I snatched 60kg and felt like my form was damn good (even though Maiko said that I looked horrible! I sensed some sarcasm, I hope). I did not finish my pull but I credit this to the lack of weight on the bar. Mike told me he does the same thing, but, when I get more weight I will really have to finish my pull to have a chance. My form tends to get better with each increase in weight. I feel 100% more comfortable with the snatch every session.

All of the pull-ups and walking lunges were unbroken. The ring dips gave me fits, for there was several times I could not count partial reps due to no lockout. They took the majority of the time.
