David,
 Welcome to the training journals.

  Simply curious, but why did you title your training thread "300?" 

  Nice power snatches.  Good work.

All the best,
 Arden

Gotcha.  Where are you at right now?  What are your training goals for the year?  How many comps do you plan to do this year?  Just curious. 

I don't remember seeing you introducing yourself giving us a little insight to your training and competitive background (bodyweight, best gym lifts, etc). 

Don't mean to pry, but curious, because I'd like to help in anyway I can.

All the best,
 Arden

Squatting first did take the edge of but my priority right now is to improve leg strength


Arden,

I'm 30 years old and have been lifting for 6 years seriously (previously weight training for track). My competition pbs are Snatch 122.5 and Clean and Jerk 142.5 at 85kg although I have done more at a higher body weight in training. My main goal right now is to improve my front squat as I can usually clean my 2RM. I'm currently following a simple program suggested to me by Mike Whittmer. My goals this year are 125, 145 which will gain me entry into our national champs in July as a 94 (I'm finished with lifting at 85)

I'm surpised how little work you do at your top sets.  Any particular reason for the latter?
