Felt like crap but after warming up, I felt really strong. 205 is the most I have PS at home and it felt like nothing today. Surprised the hell out of me. Hopefully this will result in some PRs Saturday.

Congrats on the PRs!

Btw is a power snatch where you receive the bar at about 1/4 squat height?

Thanks. Yes, a power snatch is where you catch the bar above parallel. It requires that you pull bar higher so its a good exercise for your second pull. You can do either in competition but you can obviously do much more in a full squat snatch. Unfortunately for me, I lack the flexibility to do a full squat snatch but I am working on it.

Got a meet in two weeks so I tried on my Oly singlet. Never worn one before. I looked so good in it, I may wear it to dinner tonight!
