Decided to start a log on here since my focus has changed from Crossfit to Strongman/getting stronger generally. Strength has taken a knock over the last few months; I set some good PBs last summer but thanks to work and not training properly, have droppped down a fair bit. So the plan is to train hard and start shifting some proper weight by the end of the year.

Current stats (goals):
BW 85
DL 245 (255+)
Sq 180 (200)
FS 160 (180)
Press 82.5 (87.5)
PP 105 (115)
Bench 115 (135)


22/2/11

DL: 70x5x2, 120x5, 150x5, 170x2, 190, 205, 215, 220, 225miss

DL from 4" deficit: 170x5x2, 180x3

Weak as piss, frustrating. Low back felt sore on these and was not staying tight. Deficits felt better, am going to incorporate these regularly on Mark C's advice.

23.2.11

Axle C+J: 45x3, 55x3, 65x3, 75, 80, 85, 90miss, 90, 95, 100

Axle PP: 45x5, 55x5, 65x5, 75x5, 80x5, 85x5, 90x3

Good sesh with Steve Burke. Axle cleans weren't as smooth as last time, but equalled my pb. Pleased with push press and one-motions, these are improving rapidly.

1" Deficits: 70x5x2, 120x6, 160x5, 180x2, 200, 210, 220, 225 PB

22" DLs (above knee): 160x3, 200x3, 230x3, 250, 270, 280, 290, 300

A much better session, set hips higher for DL pull and felt much better.

I've only tried the wheel thing once - my abs were pretty sore the next day though so it seems to work. To be honest I have never done much for abs, tend to do planks and toes-to-bar but often don't bother, so I'm trying to do more. I have tried cable crunches before and they are good, so will be doing more of them.


26.2.11

Bench: 60x5x2, 70x5, 80x3, 90, 100, 105 stopped as no spotter

Handstand Pressups: 3x10

Pullups: 3x10

Dips: 5x10

Band Pullaparts: 20

I suck at Bench. 105 was easy, 115 is my PB but there was noone around so didn't fancy getting pinned.

Trying to work sticking point on squats, which is just around/above parallel. Amazing the difference in weight lifted for just 1 or 2" higher.

Thanks guys!


1.3.11

Power Snatch: 40x5x2, 60x5, 70x3, 80x3, 85x2, 90

2" Deficits: 60x5, 120x5, 160x3, 180, 200, 210, 220, 230 PB

GHRs (setting 10): 2x5

Low back was super tight on power snatches, but settled down on DLs for some reason. Well pleased with 230 from 2", DLs seem to be improving. Cheeky hitch but never mind.
