My legs feel a little stunned after this one, I'm sure soreness is in the future.  But that's a good sign, was a good stimulus.  Great snatch practice.  I'm realizing a lot of my instability in the catch is in my legs/hips, I land so variably and often without great tension.  Really trying to work on that.  My left upper quad and into my hip flexors has been tight and pulls/kinda painful since the January comp.  When it's bad it will burn and night in the hip.  I think I learn away from that side sometimes.  Will focus some self care/mobility on that area.  OHS felt pretty good.  The sandbag 1 1/4 front squats really exposed weakness for me.  I wish I had videos of the first two sets.  With the 70# bag all I was able to do was basically lift my butt backward and up on the 1/4.  By the 6th rep that had lit my back up.  I was barely able to finish the set with any integrity at bodyweight.  I think I've basically been bouncing out of the bottom when I've done these before but the extra 1/4 kills that.  I tried the 60# and same thing.  As you can see with the 30# ball the last two reps I barely had any strength to do the 1/4 and it was really shallow compared to the first few reps.  Wow.  Felt way better on my back though...amazing how weak I am at keep a vertical assent at the very bottom.  WOD was tough.  I made it.  Thanks!
