So I hate power lifts. ESP power snatch. And also hate power jerk bc they hurt my shoulders since I guess I don’t have good mobility there. But yesterday was the first time that everything started to click. No longer are those weights “scary” to me. And I am not exactly scared of the weight because I want to lift more. I’m nervous I don’t do those lifts correctly since I’m not so fast.

But things are starting to click on a regular basis. That is just a huge confidence booster after the last cycle nearly killed me with fatigue. Another thing that helps is seeing good form all the time. From consistently lifting with Sara I see her calmness and her perfect form rep after rep after rep and I want to lift like that. From lifting with my Lauren I see the jerk of all jerks. Everyone is jealous of that jerk. And we all want to “jerk like lauren!” I like to lift with Kevin too because he keeps us honest. Never ever does he let me forget I’m on camera do I need to perform well and every lift should be my best lift and fastest lift! But I don’t forget the last few cycles with heather and Alida. I miss the original flair of Sayre but I’m glad more girls are coming in. It’s fun and creates a good atmosphere for friendly competition. I’m excited to see the power lifts next week because I want to see what I can push myself to do!
