**I really had to get used to my OLY shoes when doing the OHS because I tilted me slightly forward. It actually gave me a better adjustment to sit on the weight well, find my pocket in the squat and really engage the hips and knees without leaning too far forward. 185# the first attempt was weird because I was so unstable at the core. I put the bar down immediately before even attempting the full squat. The second time I kept tight pressure on my core before performing the push jerk and found the squat to be fairly easy. I was happy to have gained a 10# PR in the OHS.

**The snatch was very very awful in the sense that I lost all form. I felt a little rush though because of the people there that wanted to do the MetCon. Although that's no excuse, I continued to try and get a high snatch weight. It was unsuccessful trying to match my PR. I wish I had a side profile of my lifting so that I could see I wasn't pulling the bar straight up, but I was pulling the bar in a curve away from my body due to the hip push. I chose the front view because of convenience of others and at the same time I wanted to see what my form looked like from the front angle. I think it's fucking ugly. I tried to hit 155# so many times, I was gassed to even match my PR.

**The MetCon I actually did better during the Open back in march with a score of 6 Rounds + 3 Push Press. George was actually the same, not hitting his previous score from the Open. We were pretty sore and tired from the WODs days before and sore from today's WOD. I was fairly happy with my performance, I performed all the movements at a controlled pace, and I wasn't gassed at the end like I was back in March. Only thing I wished I did was not stop at the box jumps. I like how I broke up the DL's into sets of 5. I didn't want the risk of tightening up my back like I'm used to.
