Lately when I try snatches, it seems like I pinch a nerve in my neck that shoots pain down my arm. Luckily I didn’t feel the pain in today’s warm up or first EMOM, but I was a little worried. As a result, I scaled back on the weight. I used an empty 35lbs barbell in the first EMOM and then the small (25lbs) bar during the second EMOM.

After class, I was told that my time was too fast in comparison to the other athletes, which could mean 1 of 2 things...
#1: I need to increase my weight load
#2: my form and technique have improved so my efficiency has also improved. Following that statement, coach Russ told me that my squat cleans had great form...the ultimate compliment! ππ»πͺπΌππΌπ¦΅
