WHAT ABOUT MAH LEGS, CHARLIE MURPHY??!!

Edwardius

Away for a few days and also have the human flu. Wandered up to 80 on the snatch, tried to do 35kg+40kg chains with hillarious consequences.
Started back squats, knee told me "if you do this, I'll break and you'll be sore". Bastard.

Edwardius

85 snatch, 90 clean and jerk (not arsed) phrontal: 90x2x2, 90x5, 100x1, 100x2.

Edwardius

Back in the gymnasium. Just did 5x5 fronts at 70, db bench with 15s and clean deads at 120. Feels bad man!

Edwardius

Got lazy last week. I have aids now. Damnit.

I've turned into a professional housemover/cleaner/painter for about a week. Move should be finished soon. I might get to train this year. My beard is magnificient. I saw a hobo the other day with a tidier one. He'd better shoes too.

Edwardius

I actually trained today. Just wandered up to 65 for a triple on the snatch, 100x3 on the back squat and a bunch of Klokov presses with just the bar to loosen things up.

Edwardius

got my monthly training session in early today. Clean and jerk x3: 65-75-80-85. Erm, that's it! Had "the bad feeling" in a big way

Work capacity is a lot better. Had a few misses on the snatch, wandered around like a hobo, got some coffee and came back to them. Squats were easy. I had my technique torn to bits at the level one the other day, well it's stuff that I was kind of aware of but getting another perspective on it is always good, hence the first pulls. Gonna train again this week and do the inters on saturday. I'm gonna be totally ****ing average!

Lifted at the inters yesterday. Snatch warmup was abysmal, missed 60 behind three times in a row, kept missing 79 too. Opened with 82, nailed it (cue much relief), Woman called 85, lost behind but made it on the 3rd though. Clean and jerk warmup was pretty good, opened at 96kg and it was fairly solid, called 100 then and made a meal of the clean and missed the jerk, missed the clean on the last attempt.
finished with 85/96, got bronze because another dude bombed out. Was treating it as a training comp but it was still feckin stressful.

Fair fecks to "The Banshee" for qualifying for the Euros. He lifted like a demon.

Great session, felt like at least a fistful of dollars once I got some rage going. Rest periods got shorter as I moved through it. I did eat a hape of cake earlier in the day though.

Gonna have to figure out some kneehab soon, lots of clicking.

I just want to track it so that I can make sure it's increasing over the next while. I don't really do a lot compared to a "general" trainee, and seem to make less progress, so I'm hoping that slowly increasing overall volume leads to some gainnnzzzzz.
Also, I was thinking of doing a general preparation phase at some point and if I have an idea of the tonnage I was lifting prior, I won't do something retarded like quadruple it immediately when I add a load of exercises and wonder why I can't get up in the morning!
In reality, I'm probably not good enough to need to bother tracking these things but it might be interesting.

Scuba Ste

It'll be interesting to see how you get on with it. Are you only counting certain percentages like 70+ or 80+ or counting everything you do?

I'm only counting about 75% and up, I can't really call anything below that work.

I was tired after that. I had planned on buggering off for 20mins for a snooze and coming back to do singles until I ended up in a wheelchair but felt kinda drained. It'll be difficult to add weight next week because 80x3 was a kind of short term goal but I'll try to crack 82kg next week. Squats were a lot more difficult after power cleaning them up. zzz

Wasn't in good form for this session, was tired and dizzy.

Clean and jerk
80x2
85x1

went for a seventh set, second jerk was out front so I began walking, ended up off the platform but had nowhere to drop the bar because the other platform had a bar on it that I didn't want to break, so ended up walking over the end of the platform. Eventually the thing ended up in a plate rack. Gymfreak had fortunately vacated the platform at the time! There was one witness. Silly Ed.

started slowing the first phase a little to stay reasonably in line but I'm coming back over it a bit as it leaves the floor. Dunno when the you-tubez willbe finished editing it.

What did you use for the bar path? Kinovea?
