Snatches are my FAVORITE

Snatches have become my favorite

I still love Cleans but man that Snatch!

I get under it, I feel like I have accomplished everything!

Then I put it down, or THROW it down

and I realize I still have lots of weaknesses...

True character is shown when you are defeated. Do you start pointing fingers? Blaming? Making excuses for your loss? OR do you see your weaknesses, realize your faults and become stronger from your defeat? The person who blames, complains, and is a sore loser will only remain a loser, you never win by taking that road...it only makes you more weak. Man up, give it all you got and be real with yourself. Either you had it or you didn't and if you didn't...keep moving forward, be better next time. But don't be that person who points fingers and makes excuses.
