Toronto World kb meet

The World meet was postponed until sometime next year. I'm disappointed as I heard rumor that probably the best overall woman kb lifter in the world might be on the platform.  Most likely I will never be able to afford overseas travel to see her, so the chance that she might be so close to home was a treat. Sort of like watching Ed Koan lift when he was competing - both of these folks are so outlandishly good at what they did/do that you can't help but be inspired and amazed. I will butcher her name too badly to post it now, but if I can find her name and the video/pictures of her I will post them. 

Anyway, I will continue snatching with the 20k bell, although at a much more relaxed pace than I have been. No more pushing for 10 minutes, just technique work and maintaining the pace. I'll probably continue six  minute sets at a 15 rpm pace until it doesn't stress my hands so much and I will try to move into doing them everyday rather than every other day. When I fatigue I miss that "index catch" and grab the bell with my whole hand. As soon as that happens my set will fail early due to hand/grip issues. 

No left hand jerks until my shoulder feels OK again and the forearm bone bruising doesn't cause me so much agony.  Jerking the bell isn't the problem; it's bringing it back down. I don't know what is going wrong, but the bruising and skin tears where the delt and bicep meet are making me believe  I'm not dropping the bell properly. The right side always has a red mark from the bell when finished but the left is bruised, scraped and occasionally bloody. I've taken video but still have no idea what is happening differently.  That makes now now a good time to take a break, review and heal.
