Just a quick post on tonight's workout at CrossFit BC. The Squat Snatch. Not one of my best movements but I have to admit I'm really starting to like it. (and I wonder if it has something to do with my new Nike Romaleos?
Is it the shoes
?)

My previous pair of lifting shoes (Pendlay's) bit the dust several weeks ago so I've only had a handful of training sessions with my Rom's. But I truly do LOVE them! I highly recommend them to anyone considering a pair of lifting shoes. They're more money than many of the other choices in the marketplace, but well worth it in my opinion.
Beauty was that I felt like I could have gone heavier. Weird considering I haven't really done much for the past 3 weeks due to injuries and sickness... but I'll take it any day.
