Went hard on deads last week, didn't want to kill myself here. Tried snatch-grip rack pulls after reading this article on T-Nation about them. I'm not sure how I feel about them. I think my traps/rhomboids/erectors even were getting hammered by them, not so much lats. I was dripping sweat like a...musk ox(?)...after these, they absolutely obliterated my upper back. I jumped to hanging power snatches after this and was really pumped up, not enough to get 165, I think if I went 140-150-160 though I would have had it. Next was hanging power cleans. I really never make any progress on them. I feel like I've made steady gains on snatching, but power cleans....not at all. I need to figure this out, maybe it's because I do them last, maybe I need to do them ahead of snatches sometimes, I dunno.
I still toy around with turning Thursdays into an all o-lift day (with push pressing), moving standing press to Mondays, pullups to deadlift day, and maybe tacking on incline benching after the o-lifts. Just a thought.
