concept 2 guru Member 1235, 4675 posts SQ 190, BP 137.5, DL 220547.5 kgs @ 85kgs UnEq | Crossfit is all well and good but I had a few sessions where my WL suffered as a result and that was enough to make me aware of my real priorities. For the foreseeable I shall be focusing solely on my WL total. I'm determined to give everything to get 240 in the upcoming Northern open and qualify for the English champs next year as a 94. After that it's all about qualifying for the British Champs, a goal which I would be incredibly proud to achieve. My plan can be found here: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0AoRHQpFb0ZQIdFVxbDg5ajZoc1Nlb2djR1ZuSC0yS0E&usp=sharing First session is tonight and I'm excited! It's going to be a lot of work but I have to give it a proper shot. | ||

Good luck. He had a look at it and said it was ok. Shaun's recent training really clicked with me and it's basically a better thought through version of the training I do already. Biggest thing is I'm snatching every session and I'm going to have to be cautious with how much volume I hit so I don't break myself. That's 30 sessions of snatch compared with the 12 I would normally do in any 6 week slot! High risk, hopefully high reward... Thanks Andy! | ||

My asshole is not watertight. Member 2926, 6050 posts SQ 217.5, BP 107.5, DL 225550.0 kgs @ 86kgs UnEq | Post Edited: 30.09.2013 @ 13:56 PM by slimsim Good move!I'm aiming for a 240kg total on Sunday at the northern masters and I'll be in the 94's as well so the challenge is on! Of course, I'll probably get a 200kg total and be really pissed off! PS. That routine would just kill me! Heavier and heavier for the next 6-7 weeks. Ouch....but Shaun's done it so there's absolutely no reason why you can't mate. | ||

concept 2 guru Member 1235, 4675 posts SQ 190, BP 137.5, DL 220547.5 kgs @ 85kgs UnEq | Tonight, felt great! Enjoyed it loads Low Hang snatch (honestly first time really doing these, found them a bit weird...) bar loads 30 3 40 2 50 2 60 2 70 1 75 2 77 2 80 2 Messed up second catch a bit and nearly fell backwards but strong enough to save it. In fact I felt very strong on all of these if not hugely technically perfect. Should be able to bully these weights and nice that I feel I can.... Jerks 40 3 55 3 70 2 90 1 105 2,2,2 Very enjoyable, snappy and confident. Always working on dropping straight down. Back Squat bar some 60 some 90 3 110 2 130 1 150 5 Confident and decent. Happy! Threw in some curls etc. because I'm a tool. Rest up till Friday vid soon. | ||
