That was a pretty good day...April, '74. I missed all three snatches because they felt great and I tried to catch them too high, then went into the warmup room and snatched a personal best of 270,hitting a perfect full squat, followed by eight lock outs with 275 and two not so close misses. In the C&J I opened with 360 and over-pulled it, losing balance, but made it on my next attempt, to break Joel's regional record. Too bad I had to wait a long time for the next attempt, (375), which I almost racked. Thinking back,I don't think I had ever front squatted more than about 360 for a single, yet the clean was no problem. I was over weight that day, (I think 185lbs). I should have started to gain weight instead of staying in the 181 class...oh well, too late now.
