Good workout today besides the horrible cold/cough I've got. Thought I was going to cough up a lung a few times.

2min bike
power snatches + OHS
little stretching

Snatch:
5x95 hang power
1fail + 3x95 hang x 2
3x115 hang
1f + 1xhang
1x125 hang fail
2 + 1 OHS x 125 hang
2x125 hang
1x130 hang x 2
1x135 hang
1x135 hang fail

Pretty solid session, I'm just doing snatches from the hang for simplicity's sake and to save my knees. Something is up with my 1st pull (less so with my clean as well) and I keep banging to bar on my left kneecap every so often.

Clean and Split Jerk:
warmups at 95 and 135
1x185 x 2
1x195
1f + 1x195 - technique laps on first attempt, bar slid off forward
1x205 fail jerk
1x205 x 2
1x205 - elbows hit knees bottom of clean, didn't attempt jerk
1x185 power clean + power jerk (PR power clean)
1x185 power clean fail power jerk

Good c&j session. I'm a little concerned with my clean technique - I keep drifting forward and standing up with a round back. Need to pull the bar back toward me more during the 2nd pull. Power clean PR was easy even at the end of the workout - should be able to do 195 maybe 200.
