I only got 58, I got to the 75lb Snatch bar and completed 8 Snatch's total. I went at a steady pace. I failed a couple of times at 75lb, but must say my shoulders held out which was the most important thing. This morning I thought about doing it again, because I think I can get to the 95lb Bar. Then I thought better and determined I need to be happy with it and not stress my shoulders!!! :D Good Work Men!!! Keep it up!!!!
