It was a while ago I was aiming for PR's in OL lifting. The reason is simple in my eye's.
"-You have to earn your practice".
With that i mean, you will have no long-term results if you do not work, with moments that strengthen your versatility. You can close your eyes to the shortcomings and give everything until one day when you realize you have painted yourself into a corner.
I've done it before, and I have learn from past experiences and do not want to take detour towards my future goals.
Those last 6 weeks I have not been chasing PR's, But that does not mean I have not received any progresion in my training. I have not been doing OL lifting for more then one year and I figure that I need to earn this completely magical exercises, before I start hunting any numbers.
I have always been driven by performance and become inspired by people regardless of fitness level, tireless work on becoming better than yesterday.
I have been working more and more with my mobility, my upper back and my shoulder stability, which I know has fallen behind in my "over all fitness" when I previously looked past these weaknesses.
There is so much easier to work with these movements, if you have flexible muscles. Movements that we unfortunately "outgrown", when we start to compensate for their movement patterns in daily life.
Today I did PR in Squat clean(1,6 of bodywight) and it felt allot easier then I remember it, not "wight easy", easier inconfidence, I trust my development. I am better then yesterday. I feel I'm slowly working me in the right direction. There is much more to work on, but I'm certainly better than the last time I had a day when the goal was to bring, "PR"
PR: 120kg Squat clean, The clean was realy nice, but I lost my upper back in the frontsquat, becuse I got the wigtht on my toe's and my elbows ´dropped.
Power Snatch: First try for 6 weeks in a Singel.
Equaled PR: A thing I have when I do PR's in heavy lifitng, like now when I did Clean PR. I always end with "Sista rycket". I go pick a Snatch movment and do 1 rep on the wight that is my PR. Today i decided to do 75kg in power snatch.
