WHAT ABOUT MAH LEGS, CHARLIE MURPHY??!!

Edwardius

Clean and jerk: up to 90 for 2 singles, failed the clean at 95 a few times, kinda strength, kinda voodoo. Not snapping properly so leaving 'er forward. Jerk seems to be better than clean at the moment, both are terrible!

NHNF: 55x2 60x1, kept looping 60 behind.

backular squat: singles to 110, back is still sore so didn't go any higher. FS: 80x5

May have to start training in the mornings :mad: :mad: :mad:

That would be my worst nightmare, I can't even walk straight in the mornings. Good luck with that, but a man's gotta do what a mans gotta do.

It hasn't come to that yet thank christ!

Santry today. Everyone was doing single leg stuff. I blame Hedley :P

Snatch: two singles 85kg, another two almost singles (brain farts on recovery) a few more misses in there too (looped). Gonna have some bruises on the hips too.

Back squat: erm, double or triple at 100.

Rack jerk: 80-85-90-95-100-100

clean voodoo work: up to 75 for various doubles, clean@80 +3 jerks.

Rest periods were dictated by how long it took to recover full consciousness.

Think I need a dedicated squat day or something. It's hard to give it proper attention when I've done a bunch of snatches and or other stuff that fries my brain.

Edwardius

Forgot: did a bunch of squat jerks around 40kg. Missed one behind, it was not nice. I stopped then.

Edwardius

Tired. left work too late for gym, squatted zu hause; 5x66-76-86-96-96. I'm incapable of generating any tension whatsoever, it's ridiculous! I need to work on my no-bility.

Edwardius

Same conditions as monday, FS 86x3x3 (wider stace, felt ok), back squats (wide again) 3x8 @66. "Wide" is barely shoulder width!
zzzzzzzzz

Edwardius

Clean and jerk: double at 85, single at 90, back squat 100x5
back is unhappy again.

Edwardius

Tired Ed is tired, trainin at home again. Back is still a bit pissy so kept squats reasonable, 96x2x5 again
press: 46kg, 5-5-10
pullups: 6-8-14
side raises and filler crap.

Edwardius

Light rdlz: 3x15x66kg, frontal squat: 66x3, scap things, I-rows, sliding lunges (need to set something up for these, seem ok but I still have an intense and indescribable hatred for single leg stuff)

Back improved a bit. Need to really focus on bracing. I'll get my photo taken with Pavel and that should sort it. I think that's how these things work.

Edwardius

Snatch: 70x2, 80x1, 85x2xf, clarked a snatch for the first time since october 2010!
Power jerk: dodgy double at 80, these are still weird, I should practice them more as my landing is ****.
jerk proper: 85x2, 90x1, 95x2x1

Right, squatting is currently a bad idea at the moment, sooo

Funkshunal leg press:
100kg+sledx5x10. Feet high and down to the stops. I've seen ****ers moving close to 400kg on this thing.
Leg Kurl: 60-75kg, prolly 80 reps or so.

Back is okay with these, it's not okay with the top end of the snatch or any part of the clean. Think I'm just gonna be doing jerks, machine leg work, koar work. Light RDLs seem to be okay though.

Ha, the change of title threw me. What've you been smoking?

Edwardius

The previous title was too prophetic for my liking!

Yup.

Well you have good company. In that case, I might rename mine "Puppies & Tropical Waters", who knows it might come true.

Edwardius

they're too bright to show up on camera!

Righto,
snatch: hips, mid-thigh, floor complex- up to 60
floor: 65-70
75x5x2
Missed a couple of these, didn't stand a lot of them up as it was grumping my shoulder. Need to jump wider, hips are too far back and it's causing problems with recovery.

Backular squat: 90x3-5-5

Back sore
RDL:
80x3x8
Back no longer sore

Legular press:
10x100, 120, 120

Not too bad.

Edwardius

clean and jerk: 95, cleaned 100, missed jerk, missed 102 clean (yeast infection)
squat: 125 for a single. ugly.
leg press 130x3x10

Edwardius

lifted at the seniors, weighed in at 81.3

snatch: 86- threw it behind, tweaked back, 86: good lift, 91: needed a little more speed from the floor but it was close.

Clean and jerk: 95-good, 100- good (generous decision though)-102: cleaned it, spent a few seconds giving myself a series of demotivational comments internally ("this is too heavy, no way are you going to lift it, go home!") and it seemed to just lock itself out, PB.

86 is a comp pb by 2kg, 102 is a clean and jerk pb, 188 is a comp pb total and think I got a sinclair pb too, all from the power of negative thought :P (and herself for coaching my lazy ass).

Nice lifting Ed. How did Craig get on and did the abusement of Barry pay off?

Thanks Ste!

Craig snatched 75 for a pb, jerked 103 I think (I think he missed 110)

Barry meditated his way to 117/142, he missed a 145 clean because he looked far too happy, I think I need to decrease the volume and increase the intensity of abuse going forward.

Rapey did 105/130 and smiled briefly before sitting down and saying "this sport is terrible"

Byrdie snatched 122, jerked 152.

That's all I can remember offhand, good general standard of lifting overall

That was very unsettling. It did only last about 10 seconds though.

Edwardius

Liftin' in t'spare room this evening with the "gym rats" for company!

back squat: 106x8
front squat: 96x4 singles, one double
(loose belt, loose wraps) felt good.

RDL: 3x10x96. easy enough but I've a feeling I'm gonna have sore hams in the morrow.

Edwardius

Yesterday: err. Howth (pronounced "hayth") hill from sutton side: 10.50 with headwind, still crap though. hit 65kph coming down, it was interesting.

Today:
Snatch:
81kg: 2-2-3*-4**-2
Missed 91 4 times. D'oh. Blew a callous too. Dunno why I went straight to 91. I might have a pop at something on thursday.

*missed the 2nd behind and retook immediately
**missed 2nd behind twice and retook immediately.

Backular squat:
100x5x5

not a bad session. snatch warmup is now: muscle snatch-pockets-floor. Seems to forge the groove fairly handy.

Edwardius

Clean and jerkx2, 5 sets 90kg.
FS 90x3x3.
Ugh!

Edwardius

Snatchin: easy 85s, missed some 90s and 91s.
Squat: 110x5, 115x5

supposedly

World records eh? Hmmmmmm...

Edwardius

Clean and jerk: 3 singles at 95, some misses, this was probably a bit heavy to be useful. Durnit.
Front squat: 3 singles at 100
planks: 3x30s at 15kg, back stopped exploding.
