135-170 lb press ladder, 24 kg kb snatch, one arm laterals



This went well. All the techniques stayed the same but more focus on hip drive as I drove my head back. Video shows I might be leaning too far back too early before I throw the head, seems to put the bar line too far to the rear

Still have to sort the rack position right before I press a bit more
Also, I will start doing threes instead of fives. Three reps takes ten seconds which is more than enough time under tension to transfer to a max effort single. With all these pauses fives are too long it seems; I start to lose tightness at 4 and 5th rep.
Still happy with the arc, the ability to finish hard reps and the bar path. It's definitely much more of a shoulder dominant groove and I know they are going to have to get stronger. I've been focused on my triceps strength for so long

 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 ...
