Notes:  Unbelievable session from a movement standpoint.  Haven't done HSPUs in months, yet they were the best they've ever been.  Kip was super tight and I could feel my hips opening up explosively.  Key is extending your legs fully before the feet touch the wall.  I tend to touch the wall before I fully open and it jams up the kip.  Snatches were gorgeous tonight.  Great pull into the bottom position and bottom position was very open and stable.  OHS was effortless.  Last week's 3-second pause in the hole was helpful.  Having to perform an OHS after your snatch forces you to use proper footwork, too.  Metcon was good.  Programmed as 10 rounds, but I stopped after 5 because it was starting to get sloppy.  The S2Os after the burpees were brutal!  They were so effortless before the burpees, but then my legs were zapped.  Same thing with the last 4 C2Bs of each round.  Had no hip power.  Looking forward to working with BSP on Friday on some supplemental pulling and grip strength movements.
