OwenL said:I need someone stronger than me to train with!!! Or just anyone lol!!! Nice few sessions mate. The reps will add up & count! Cheers. Yeah hope so. The reps are working, I must admit. The weightlifts are much less like a mental exercise that they were before and I am feeling a lot more comfortable at them at the min, so happy with that. | |||

| Quick and dirty one today. Trained with the Unit himself and got schooled, lol. Irony is come Sept/Oct I will be teaching him. Snatch + 2 Hang Snatch + Overhead squats 40 x 1 + 2 + 1 50 x 1 + 2 + 1 60 x 1 + 2 + 1 70 x 1 + 2 + 1 Strict press, paused 50 x 3 60 x 2 70 x 2 80 x 2 85 x 2 90 x 1 85 x 2 x 2 Push Press 80 x 2 90 x 2 100 x 2 (nearly lost 2nd behind) Neutral pullups Bw x 8 10kg x 8 20kg x 9 Overhand Pullups BW x 8-10 x 4 Mid-trap raises 7kg x 15 x 4 Rear delt raises 7.5kg x 15 10kg x 15 x 4 Bit forward on the snatch, was just going through the motions really and using the OH squat to stretch. Bad habit that, need to treat each rep the same. | |||

Wigan said:Monday 09 June 2014 Working in with Andy Coupe, thought about a few light snatches tonight again to see how the hand feels. Working in with the Coupe meant I did a bit more than I had planned. Snatch 40 x3,x3,x3 60 x2 80 x1 85 x1 90 x1 bee-you-tee-full Distinct lack of leg strength but have to be pleased with these. Hand was virtually pain free, it's probably the fourth or fifth time I've snatched since the British Masters last March, and I've not exactly got any consistent training in recently. Snatches are great. Snatch Pull 95 x3,x3 110 x3,x3,x3 Press 50 x5 60 x5 65 x5x5x5 50 x10,x8,x6 Low Pulley Row 5x10 Clean the Adders toilet x1 Got a good sweat on tonight, enjoyed having another weightlifter around!! Awesome. Its ace when snatching goes right isn't it? So motivating. I feel you pain (literally) with the hand issue. Hope everything goes OK. | |||

AndyCoupe said:I just seem to rush everything from the floor but I think something clicked on the last 95. Stay calm and then BOOM at the hips! Squats were really tough. YES! I know what you are saying about snatch. I rush the lift like mad and am always trying to sneak under rather than be controlled and sure to finish the lift. Someone once told me that I need to be patient, trust my pull and then wait until it feels like I am too late then go. Should really remind myself of that more often. | |||

AndyCoupe said: I agree but I think he'd bottle it  Adlington with Jeff, Pete & Aaron... Inconsistent on the snatches tonight. I think I was under pressure with coach Jeff analysing Snatch 40x2 50x2 60x2 70x2 80x2 85f 90x1 95f 85x1 90x1 95x1 A few fails in there but when I got one "right" it felt light as a feather until I had to release the bar, ouch! Power Clean and push press 60x3 80x3 90x2 100x2 105x2 Squat 70x5,5 100x3 120x2 140x2 150x2 160x2x6 Tough!! Nice session mate. Squats sound nasty! I find that if someone watches me it goes one of two ways. The added pressure either makes me switch on and everything feels amazing or I start microanalysing everything because I don't want to look like a nob, which usually results in me fluffing it and looking like a nob, strangely.  | |||

little_a said:Nice one. Don't underestimate your part in his training regardless of the weights differences. He'll take a part of you onto that Glasgow platform. Cheers mate,I really appreciate that. I do what I can to push him hard when he needs it. I'm improving because I get to train with someone who moves really, really well and I guess he improves because I'll tell him if he is being a ponce and should put more weight on the bar (and vice versa). | |||

little_a said: & doing it well mate. No stone left unturned with that little lot. Are you still trying to keep up with the young fella? Yes mate, yeah. He clearly lifts a lot more than me but we basically go set for set and rep for rep with the same percentages. Little bugger is so efficient though. This weekend he hang cleaned 150. Bear in mind that he doesn't front squat that much more than that! | |||

| Trained most days since last post but was rubbish at logging it here. Start of next few weeks today and it felt great, feel really well conditioned after that last block. Anyway: Squats 60 x 3 100 x 3 120 x 2 130 x 1 140 x 1 150 x 1 142.5 x 5 135 x 5 130 x 5 Snatch from block (mid-thigh) 40 x 3 50 x 3 60 x 2 70 x 2 80 x 2 82.5 x 2 x 2 77.5 x 3 x 2 Cleans 60 x 2 80 x 2 90 x 1 100 x 1 105 x 1 110 x 1 107.5 x 2 x 2 105 x 3 x 2 Jerk Dips 90 x 5 120 x 5 140 x 5 150 x 5 160 x 5 Power Jerk 60 x 3 80 x 3 90 x 2 100 x 1 105 x 1 107.5 x 1 (awesome rep, best I've done I think really effort less) 110 x 1 x 3 Moved the blocks down for snatches and it feels really different; actually have some pull now. Back off sets on 77.5 were really nice, pleased with the last set. Still wouldn't say I've figured out how to do snatch from blocks yet but getting better and wish every power jerk would be like that one set. Need to figure out what I did and replicate it if I can. | |||
