The oly lifting is great. I'm really enjoying the change. In a way i much prefer it to powerlifting....since powerlifting is about the most weight in the shortest range of motion, while oly lifting is from the ground to above your head...you can't really cheat that...besides slight press out's.

I'm not sure about specific goals, when i say specific, i mean what i'd like to acheive by when. something i'd like to do is snatch 60kg & c&j 75. Perhaps getting both done by June 30th would be sweet as. Since i'm fairly new to olympic training it's possible...while not strictly speaking a newbie (tho some would argue) my results are difficult to estimate.

i did a bout of cardio today with a 5kg medicine ball. How it worked was in the span of a minute i'd see how many squats & medince ball throw's i could do. After a minute of rest, i'd have another go. After a stage, i got to 35 squats. my legs were killing me, pumped full of blood. I'll possibly do this form of cardio every other day, or something like that...i'm going to do a lot of cardio in 2010
