This morning was a solid lifting session ... I was really looking forward to today after taking yesterday off. Felt solid throughout and particularly strong on the bench press. Good day in the gym, looking forward to hitting it hard on Monday.

A. 

Snatch

1 set x 3 reps

Work up to daily max.

-Triples went: 95#, 115#, 135#, 155#, 175#, 185#, 195#, 205# ... 205# for a triple isn't great for me, but this the most I've done in a while. Looking forward to getting back to touching 225#
