Thursday weightlifting

Diane has taken over Carl's Thursday @ noon weightlifting class. I'm interested to see how it'll look. We worked on building capacity by doing heavy doubles in the jerk.

First rep was push jerk, then a split. Only got up to 215 today for a double, but it was a time issue more than anything else. I'd like to use this strategy to build up again in the future.
