@#$%#$@!

Ok, I imagine everyone has a least favorite lift.  I know the girls of 8AM, each of us have the one lift that we struggle with.  Well for me it is the snatch.  I don't know what it is, but I STRUGGLE with it bad.  Every other lift I like and can perform ok, but this one- yikes... horrible.  I tend to think way to much about the move and I mess it up.  Today the DWOD was:

10-9-8-7-6-5-4-3-2-1
Hang Power Snatch @ 63/95lbs
Pull Ups
My time was:  22:09
It took me almost double the time it took others but I didn't quit or drop weight. (I really tried Coach!)  Most of my snatches became presses.  Pull-ups were fine, but not the other.  There were a few times I actually did the lift correctly and it felt good.  Notice I said a few!  My upper body is tired though from pressing.

Goal today:  not dwell that my snatch lift is terrible!

what is key (to me) is that you can feel the difference! Good work. It does not happen quickly- no worries or fretting!! (this is me giving advice I should often take) ;)
