Great job on a PR!  I am glad I might have provided some inspiration, but you still did the work!  Weights don't lift themselves.

[Matt Erdman]

Nice squat!

[Keith Miller]

Thanks, guys!!!  It felt really good.  It was a 3 yr old PR, and I broke it with relative ease.  I sense 150 or more coming very soon.

Snatch

40 x 3  (2 power, 1 full)
50 x 2  (1 power, 1 full)
60 x 2  (1 power, 1 full)
70 x 1
75 x 1 x 2/3  missed first one being lazy and not finishing, came back and made 2 easy

Clean & Jerk

50 x 2
60 x 2
70 x 2
80 x 1
90 x 1
95 x 1  all of these were pretty easy today

Back Squat

50 x 3
70 x 3
90 x 3
110 x 2
122.5 x 1  a little tough, but probably because I was speeding through the workout today

All in all, a good workout and last moderately heavy session until Sunday.  I would not have gone this heavy if I was lifting on Sat, but since it is Sunday, I feel good to have 2 rest days and a light power workout on Sat morn.  Wish me luck!!!
