Notes
A nice little day. Depth jumps were a bit hard on the knees, but otherwise OK. The other work is just rep work, so nothing insane. I have been working on my sumo position, which basically is setup the same as my position on a box squat. Since i have a longer torso, my feet are back slightly from the bar, enabling my knees to come forward slightly, then as I start my pull, my knees come back slightly as I am pulling, and then it all goes straight up. Now all I have to see is if 1) I can maintain this with heavier loads 2) I can get flexible enough to make the position comfortable 3) I can get to this position with a belt and suit on.
