Snatches and cleans

Very light. was very hesitant going in today,really not wanting my glutes,hammies and lumbars to lock up again. No thanks. BUT I have to train so lets see what happens.

Snatch
26x8/8
36x10/10
x12/12
x14/14
x16/16

108 total.

Did a warmup of cleans, swing and snatch and was worried as the glutes started tightening a bit. Switched to straight repetitive snatch where it wanted instead of so much glute tightening and things relaxed. I cannot do circuit training no matter how hard I try. DOnt like it.
these felt good though. It is easier on my body to snatch than to swing, for sure.

Cleans
36x10/10
53x6/6
x8/8
x10/10
x6/6
x8/8
x10/10

96 reps

I love this move and it always comes through for me.great leg ,hip, back drive and a non problematic arm move.and good cardio too if I push the pace and do higher reps.don't know why I fight it.

waiters walk with 26#
2 laps per arm 6 times

decided to go light today as I wasnt sure I would be able to walk at all. the lighter weight wasnt that much easier as the problem with the right shoulder is flexibilty first, left side is easy.My legs hips and back actually participated as well. beautiful day.

 Thought about going back to 5x5 for a hot second then my left shoulder  reminded me why I stopped doing them before. It doesn't seem to...
