After my session on Friday I immediately went outside to start the braai (barbecue) and unfortunately managed to catch a bit of a cold..nothing serious, just some tightness in the nose and throat and a bit of difficulty catching my breath at times. I decided not to let the minor annoyance put me off and went ahead with my session for today. Here is the result:
I warmed up with some body-weight squats and 24 kg swings. This was followed by:
OAJ (24kg): 3 minutes @ 8 rpm
Snatch (24kg): 2 minutes @ 12 rpm
I finished off with some more 24kg swings and body-weight squats.
For now I'm keeping things as simple as possible because I think I tried to do too much during my previous outing. The plan for now is as follows (and thanks to Cate Imes for some ideas):
* Learn how to be explosive in the lifts without generating too much tension
* Master the absolute basics of the Jerk and Snatch
* Focus on proper alignment and technique rather than reps
* Keep moving!!!
Hopefully there will be more tomorrow.
