First day of the new program

“I fear not the man who has practiced 10,000 kicks once, but I fear the man who has practiced one kick 10,000 times.” - Bruce Lee

Today's workout:

A1: Power Snatch + 2 Snatch - 65% (120#) x 2 sets; 70% (130#) x 3 sets
B1: Jerk off Blocks - 70% (150#) x 3 x 2; 75% (160#) x 3 x 3
C1: Trap Bar Jumps - 90% x 7 x 2; 90% (195#) x 5 x 3 (% of clean)
D1: Back Squat - 60% (170#)  x 8; 65% (185#) x 8; 70% x 6 (forgot to do this set); 75% (210#) x 6 x 2
This was Day 1 of the Hugification Project. Started it a day later because I was sick on Monday. My allergies have been going haywire these past couple of days. The workout was good. Very long though. Took me about 1.5 hours not timing rest periods. I think I am going to start being more dilligent about timing my rests. No more than 2 minutes between sets for oly lifts/auxillary work and no more than 3 minutes for squats.
Missed 1 of the snatches at the 65% but thats why it's practice. Practice the lifts a million times till its like clockwork. Rest of the snatches were good though and caught them at the bottom. Also forgot to do a set of squats. All the numbers on the sheet made me dyslexic and I missed seeing it. Oh well.It progresses next week at higher weight/less volume so I can just make it up then. Also I didn't have time to do the 2nd workout (yes this was a 2 a-day workout). Just didn't have time/energy after getting owned by my two tests and sickness. It's hard to train like an athlete when you have school and a job :/
