back to oly lifting, squats, etc

my knee has been hurting on and off, but it wasn't too bad this morning so i went back to my previously scheduled programming (a little light, though). everything felt fine, which is good. if it's still ok tomorrow, i might try heavier squats.

snatch pull + hang snatch (knee) (2+1) x 5
worked up to 2 ugly reps (didn't catch it nearly deep enough, sloppy overhead position) at 68#, then backed off with a few sets of 63# (felt great) and one at 58#.

clean pull + hang clean (hip) (2+1) x 5
5 at 83#. one rep was sloppy, didn't extend all the way at the top.

overhead squat 3 x 5
5 sets of 3 reps at 83#. haven't done these in forever. i wanted to get my overhead work and squats done at the same time, so OHS worked well. these felt really hard, and my wrists are killing me from them. definitely have to start OHS'ing once a week.

then a halved & modified version of CFD's WOD:
3 rounds
10 kb clean (35#)
10 slam balls (15#)
10 TTB (scaled TTB to floor)

slam balls, where have you been all my life? <3
