If I move fast enough, my joints won't creak as badly!

[Jason S]

Both of my knees need replacing, torn ACL, meniscus, bone on bone OA, they are both shot.

Yikes. That sounds pretty brutal, man.

This was my birthday so I wanted to hit a PR, which is usually the thing that I want most.

133-0,0,0,1 too many misses here, but it wasn't feeling too bad.
135-1 gym lift PR
136-0,0
-I think that my left elbow was a little soft on the 133 and 135 so the "1" above means "training make" but not necessarily comp level make. The 136s were very close, and revealed that I need to get more comfortable at the bottom.



CnJ
70-1,1
90-1
110-1
...and adrenaline dump starts and all the heavy snatches start to catch up with me here
127-1, questionable jerk
142-miss clean
142-clean, miss jerk
142-clean, too light headed to try jerk

Jerks from blocks

I'm happy with the PR but I screwed up the rest of my training for the day. Will plan to limit myself to 3 snatch attempts over 130 per workout or 3 misses.
