This one was fun in a "i can't use my arms" kind of way. I had actually started the jerks at 135, but my body forgot how to do it so I had to drop down. The first set was really awkward, but I got the rhythm back in the second. I did regular jerks today instead of split jerks. I also felt kind of bad hogging the power lifting rack for so long. Two separate guys came in, worked their squats around me, and left before I finished (and another one came along when I had 3 sets left in the jerks). But, not a bad score all around. I wasn't able to overhead press as much as last time, mostly due to a difference in how I racked the weight I think. That and my arms were pretty sore already. Jerks and push presses were about the same weight, but they felt much smoother.
