snatch day

God I love it when things are going good. I feel like I know how to snatch again and thats a very good feeling.I'm focused on doing movement, not figuring it out. I can zone it to producing as much force as possible, not where to put my limbs when.this is the fourth workout in a micro cycle and time to have down week.

snatch
36x5+5
44x5+5

53x5+5 (10)
x7+7 (14)
x9+9( 18) keeping it in close, like a high pull and it is just floating up!
x11+11(22)
x13+13( 26) cardio feels really good. breath is much better.recovery faster too.
x5+5(10)
x7+7 (14)long static holds for each rep

190 x 1 x 12, 210/225 static holds, 24 kg goblet squats, floor pushups 30, 20

 This went VERY well almost all reps identical. Realized I get better drive AND minimize shoulder stress if I unrack it with more weight on ...
