Broing Out

Went over to my friend's place to do some oly lifting, conditioning, and steak eating tonight.

Did about 8 or 9 sets of the following snatch complex working up to 125#:
Snatch grip deadlift, hang shrug, hang snatch, overhead squat. My snatch catching position feels loose and a wizard's sleeve, hopefully the oly seminar dude tomorrow will be able to tell me why I suck so much.

Probably 7 or 8 sets of the following clean and jerk complex working up to 185# on the last few sets:
Clean deadlift, clean shrug, hang clean, front squat, jerk. I did 2-3 front squats instead of doing jerks. My triceps right above my elbows feel absurdly tight/f-ed for some reason. Whenever I flex my arm past 90 degrees I get some discomfort/pain up in there. Front rack position felt ok though for some reason. I either tweaked something doing bench or clean/jerks on Weds I think. Hopefully some lax ball rolling fixes this crap.

Did a 7 min AMRAP after:
3 burpees
5 box jumps 30"
7 kb swings 2p/32kg

8 rounds + 6

KB swings didn't end up being that bad, hoping I'm more comfortable with the heavier guys now b/c I'm getting stronger? Box jumps also weren't that bad. I haven't done 30" box jumps in probably 9 months to a year, mostly cause I'm a pussy. I should do these more often, they'll make 24" box jumps look like a joke.
