After a really tough day of training, I always seem to follow it up with a solid outing.  I was feeling fast, so I decided to increase my weights for my reps @ 75% and ended up going for all time PR's in the power snatch (87kg) AND power clean (97).. Granted, I've never really truly gone for 1RM on these lifts, so any PR's on these lifts have been the result of going off percentages in training of my projected 1RM's for the full lifts.  Mind you, I his both these PR's for a double!

The only bad thing, is that I bailed on my 95% squat.  Aside from that, my working sets at 80% felt strong.  A lot stronger than I thought I'd feel after yesterday's squatting!
