the Open is alway challenging both physically and mentally. Do your best to switch off for the two to three days between Open workouts and try and get some training in. Even if it means doing something different at another gym or outdoor activity to keep you mentally fresh.

I’m trying to 🙂 I’m enjoying the training between Open workouts…it’s relaxing. Still in good position in the Master’s Open, just not happy with how these have gone the last 2 weeks personally. It’s not even half over yet, so I’m going to keep fighting!

was feeling funky pretty much all day. got some body work done. ate some donuts. snorted. i mean drank some pre workout and hit it hard.

Up to 250×3 on hang snatches. these felt really freaking good. i thought they were going to be a disaster cause we have not snatched heavy in what feels like forever.
jerks up to 330 with no misses. lockout was strong today.
