tough path back to olympic lifting

Finally managed to find some will power and energy to start back after several weeks. I decided to try and take up from where I previously lft the programme with mixed results

Week 3 Day 3

Snatch
42x3; 47x3; 52x3; 57x3; 60x2; 62x1; 65x1; 67x1xx. A bit weak and slow in the pull although I only dropped 2. I was thinking about Pete saying last week that you should feel your weight in the middle of the feet. This thought really helped.

Clean and Jerk
47[1+2]; 57[1+2]; 67[2+1]; 77[1+2]; 87x1; 92x1; 97x1; 90x1. All the cleans after 77 were unbelievably hard. My legs were so weak. 97 clean felt like 110 but I had to use every ounce of strength to stand up with it. I was delighted to get 97 after a layoff. This is encouraging.

Front Squat
45x3; 55x3; 65x3; 75x3; 85x3; 95x3; 95x3; 90x3; 85x3; 80x3. 95 was so tough that I couldn't attempt 107 or 115. The right knee hurt slightly so I had to be careful. Legs are really weak but this will improve.

Military Press
40x3; 42x3; 45x3; 50x3; 55x3; 60x3; 62x1; 65x1; 67x1; 70x1; 72x1. Only 5 off pb which was good. I didn't expect to get this. Hopefully I will break the 80 press barrier b4 end of Sept. I think I need 80 press to have strength for 110 c+J

4 mile walk
Overall, very relieved to get through this barrier. Hopefully things will settle after a few weeks
