Wednesday - Snatch bar drills, Clean and Jerk, Jerk, Front Squat

Snatch drills:
(with just the bar)
-from the sternum, on the toes, suggested by Koing, pulling into the full snatch and getting the bar path straight up: 3x3x20 kg
-from the belly button, same deal as before: 3x3x20 kg
-from the mid-thigh, bending over the bar like before the second pull, then same deal: 3x3x20, then 2x3x40 kg
(I have video of this)

Clean and Jerk:
-70 kg x 3
-80 x 2
-90 x 1
-100 x 1 (accidentally push jerked this)
-110 x 1
-115 x clean no jerk (jerk attempted), 1
-120 x clean (no jerk attempted)
-125 x clean no jerk (jerk attempted)

Split Jerk:
-70 kg x 3
-80 x 3, 3, 3

Front Squat:
-135 lbs x 4
-225 x 3
-270 x 3, 3, 3, 3

Back Extension:
-40 lbs x 10, 10, 10

Notes:
-tried to do the drill Koing gave me, hopefully I did them correctly
-got in trouble for taking video, the worker had to actually WATCH me delete it. Luckily, I had no idea what I was doing and accidentally didn't delete it (seriously, it was a mistake. No joke)
-had to secretly do the third video
-once again, got told not to drop weights, but ignored that of course (it was a missed lift, give me a break)
-I have an important meeting with some CRS staff about the dropping weight policy, hopefully I can convince them to let us do it again, because honestly its unsafe to force people to always lower the weights slowly with olympic lifts. I have studies that prove that Oly lifting is safe, which I will print and bring.
-just realized I didn't bother trying 128 kg for the clean. I guess I forgot.
