Wait. Actually I'm going to try to do a big snatch and then c&j what is needed to qualify for nationals! I learned this style from Joel Pudenz, one of Greg Kustra's lifters. It takes 244 for me to qualify, so If I snatch 108 I need...136, 106...138,etc, and believe me I will open with what is needed in the c&J just in case I need several attempts, but I would like to do it the way Joel did it and make it on my 1st. Bring on the Rain! There is only one goal for this meet, 244. Do or Die. I'm just gonna have to get all I can out of the snatch, a bad series of snatches will make the 244 that much unlikely, but 3 for 3 will set the pace, something I can build on. I'm already excited.

Sounds like you have a big goal simon. I am sure your training leading up in the next few weeks will be solid, looking forward to it!
