Cutting it Close

With my official RKC snatch test exactly TWO weeks away, I am grateful that my illness did not come three weeks later. It would have been hard to pass the snatch test if I could barely walk.

I hit my numbers again in an ugly manner. I had to disqualify on rep on the left as "Too Much Pressing" and I had to resort to a "allowed by the rule" knee bend on my last rep on the right.

I am still very light for my category. If it were only a matter of the snatch test, I would drop the 2 pounds to reduce my number by over 20%. At 143 it is one of the biggest drops by weight class.
(38 snatches at 143 Lbs, 48 snatches at 144 Lbs)

But, and a big one at that, is I need strength for the rest of the course.
