Was a great weekend, quite sore and tired today but feel pretty good overall. Should have done the snatch test with the 24kg but really wasn't sure how my body was going to respond to all the work I did before hand. Going to test Saturday again with the 24kg. Planning on the April RKC.

Have a big weekend for training starting Saturday so will be taking tomorrow off. Saturday is kb class, and a 1:1 with a Level 5 master Z-health Trainer! Sunday is BYOBell class at 10am then after that Andrea Chang RKC has started a RKC prep class. We will be meeting twice a month. Will be good to start doing more volume back to back to set my body and recovery up for the RKC.

TGU were done slow, pausing in each stage. Clean & Front Squats were done 1 clean, 1 front squat, 2 cleans, 2 front squat etc. Switching hands each rung. Was planning on 5 sets but felt I was just dropping into the hole on the front squat and not actively pulling myself down so called it good. I did not rest, but the Hip Flexor stretch and TGU allowed for some.
