Monday October 26, 2015
18 days out from the American Master's Championship

Walked a mile over to CTown.
Stretching and Mobility
Snatches to 155 (no doubter), 165 (maybe), 176 (miss)
C&J to 195 (no doubter), 215 (miss), 200 (no doubter)

Today was a day I had to back off and realize that I can't win the title today, but I can lose it...

Walked a mile home, trying to get my head in the right space.
Am contemplating opening at 68/85 to give myself the best chance to win, and then having one poke at World Qualifying snatch, C&J, and total.
I think this is a meet I have to concentrate on lifting just enough to win, and maybe think about qualifying at some other meet that I don't want to win so dearly (e.g., Arnold, where I have zero chance of winning) or where there isn't an American title on the line.
