Thanks. I wish, I have been working out alone most of the time the past couple of weeks so no videos since my jerk PR unfortunately.
 
Good work.

What kind of programming are you following?

Thanks. I tried the cathletics strength by feel 9 week program, and got fried after 6 workouts. Right now I am shooting for 5 workouts a week, M-Th and Saturday. Each day I will go by how I feel, since I can fluctuate greatly from one day to the next. Selection will be a form of snatch and clean on all 5 days, and alternate front squat and back squat and bench press and a form of overhead lift on M, W, S. I am trying to get in about 4-5 exercises on M, W and S, so I will also throw in deadlift, various rows, and other things in from time to time.
