Clean pulls off blocks: loads up to 90kg then more 70kgx6 which seems about right weight to work the technique. KB Snatches: 3x20 (10 per side). I think pulls of blocks are really good to address the problems I have keeping my back tight, improve hip drive and maybe keep some of my leg strength. Video is private!

Exactly 2 weeks diet today and have lost 2.3kg, weigh 95.5kg this morning (started at 97.8kg). Monday; Week 3; Heavy Singles ============================= Back sore and tight from yesterday sub optimal. Power Snatch: 2x64kg, 2x68kg, Fx72kg, 1x67kg, 1x70kg, 1x73kg, 1x75kg // sore back was messing with my setup. After the fail changed setup, lowered hips brought shoulders closer to the bar. It did the trick, 75kg was easy enough more in there, but not PB so left it rather that make back worse. Valuable lesson learnt on the setup. Hypers: 3x12 Calf Curls: 3x20kg 1km on Exercise bike 3 attempts at a muscle up, with technique I will nail this. Push up comp 30 strict, got beaten by a 70 year old man, sub optimal. Stretch

Gone and easily forgotten....... Member 331, 22298 posts SQ 185, BP 100, DL 230 515.0 kgs @ 85kgs UnEq	Muscle ups? Eccentric leg press? Rubdowns? WHAT THE f**k IS GOING ON IN HERE

WHAT THE fk IS GOING ON IN HERE Training bro, you should try it. Muscle ups are awesome party trick, leg press is rehab for knee and do you even need me to explain a rubdown? Missed Wed and Friday sessions due to interview nonsense! Couple of the jobs are looking good, more will be revealed once I get a firm offer. Sunday ======= Went in with the intention of making up for missed Wed/Fri session, lesson 1, its not possible to make up for missed sessions. Foam Roll Warm up Clean and Jerk: 2x60kg, 2x70kg, 2x75kg, 1x80kg, 1x83kg // as per video. Power cleans: 2x83kg, 3x85kg, 88kg 1F1F, 91kg 1F // 3 fails so left it. Pullups: 5,4,4,4,3 // at least these are on track Overall a st session and missed the planned volume/intensity. Cleans are rubbish, need to extend more and move feet wide to get some kind of dip. Back looks fairly flat but could maybe pin shoulder back bit more. Jerks ok considering I am leading with the wrong foot. Look fairly rapid, but need to get front foot further in front.

So next cycle, will go for 2x73kg instead. Eccentric left leg press: 4x8 up to 100kg // started getting heavier on these. Apparently from my understanding its the load that is meant to "straighten out" the tendon and aid healing. Obviously wont unrealistically push through any pain. Hypers: 2x8 Muscle up: f, 1 PB! , f Pullups: 5,4,4,4,4 // worked in with young Alex so no rest between sets, compared to my normal 3 minutes. Stretch

Surely you can't be more than 70kg in that vid!!!! Lack of tan takes off about 20kg, not all of us have been gifted with a glowing turkish complexion. 74kg snatch at 70kg bodyweight would be awesome though, maybe the only shot at bodyweight snatch I will get?

Muscle up video next week. The video wouldn't load when I commented. See it no though. You might benefit from actively trying to think about stomping your heels down and snapping your arms locked at the same time.
