My goal today was just to be able to train and not do any further damage to my knee. Unfortunately, I was King of the Stoopids today and screwed the pooch on that one. For some idiotic reason I decided to see "how heavy I could go without hurting my knee" on log, which since everything was feeling better and moving better, I figured should be more than I did on Tuesday on my overhead day. I was both right and wrong at the same time. I did go heavier, but at the cost of making my knee worse since I figured split jerking on it would be acceptable. I don't think I did anything debilitating to it, but I definitely backed off after that and it was causing me to guard in a major way on yoke. Stones seemed to be fine other than the fact that I was just too sweaty to do much of anything with the 300.

Log C&J (clean once)

complex x 90

complex x 140

complex x 180

1x230

1x250

1x270 - Increased pain and funk in my left knee on this one so that was definitely all for today.

Yoke

50'x250

50'x340

50'x430 - My knee didn't feel good on any of these runs and I was guarding more and more with increased weight so I made myself stop here.

Stone Over Bar to 51"

2x200

2x240

2x5x280

I tried 300 after the first set, but even with tape I was so sweaty I just slid off every time I tried to pick it.
