It was a vibrant Saturday morning at the gym with it’s typical upbeat energy. (I’m not saying that just because I did not have to wait for a squat rack).

 

Getting a quick start with 3 rounds of the Crossfit warm-up and the Burgener warm-up, I continued with some Oly lifts. 

 

Hanging Squat Snatch + Overhead Squat x 3: 45/55/65 (sucked)/65/75 (sucked)/75. 

 

In between sets, I did,

 

Kettlebell Swings, 20 kg x 10 reps for 5 sets.

 

Hanging Squat Cleans + Front Squat and Press x 3; 75/95/105.

 

My finisher for the day was 20 x 20 kg Kettlebell Snatches done in 5 sets.

 

Nice workout with good effort, but my form generally sucked throughout, sadly.
