Hey Nicole! My, errrhmmm, “partners” are ribbing me about “follow the program”? If the last set feels good though, should we “ride it” past the prescribed percentages? Talking about the last set of Snatches. Why do I feel that no matter what the answer I’m gonna get ribbed even more!?

I had surgery to repair a torn labrum in my left shoulder last year so now that shoulder can be difficult from time to time. Keeps getting better but I have to be aware of it and I think some movements are just not an option for me but hopefully eventually it all comes back!
