It HAS to be considering I nearly did my max on the complex.

130 will go next week.

That complex press wI'll leave a latent image in my brain. Really neat thanks! I will try it.
That's like 300 pounds? I'm used to thick bars. Sometimes my legs are ship and I have a strong squat. Sometimes my leg drive sucks. No zing zip.

Just wrote a massive message and lost it! Unhappy

An update:
Not logged 4 sessions:
Session 1: snatch 90, fail 95 - left there as I had stuff to do.
Session 2: clean, two front squats and jerk - did 120, failed 126 - can't remember what else I did.
Session 3: 127 jerk double (vid on my Instagram) - can't remember what else I did.
Session 4: 140 5x5 squat, 210x5 deadlift, 110x5 CGBP done 3 weeks last Tuesday at Catt's.

Between then and now I have been on JC's stag do, which took nearly a week to recover from, and had a week in Menorca. Both were very enjoyable.

So, as a demotivated, aimless, fat, middle-aged man I did my first session back yesterday. It was just a general BB session, with no particular interest to anybody on here, but there was a 115x10 front squat in there, which was pleasantly surprising.

I'm going away again in 6 weeks, so am going to do a bit of a diet till then.

I need a focus!

3 sessions to catch up on:

A bodybuilding session with Coupe that involved 140x12 squat - can't remember the rest.

Then an 85kg snatch (build-up was EMOM), followed 120x7 front squat to start a bodybuilding session which also included 40kg x 12 incline DB press and 60kg x 10 BTN press (seated).

Then on Saturday I did a 120 x 2 jerk, 110kg x 20m farmers (pick up was MAX - failed it on the first attempt Confused Confused Confused Confused Confused !), then 3 runs of arm over arm (20m) followed by a sled drag (20m):
100kg
140kg
190kg

400m run to warm up, then mobilise.

6 min to work up to a 1RM strict press

70kg
80kg

Then 6 min EMOM on same weight
I did 80, 80, 80, 80, 85, 85

Then the main WOD:
2000m row
25 wall ball
1000m row

2 burpees every time the ball touches the floor (I took 3 strategic breaks on these).

Cheers Robbo - numbers will have dropped off now - I didn't do any training fur nearly 3 weeks. I just totally lost all motivation to train it eat properly.

Hoping to get back into it now though.

Andy - body is destroyed.

Not much action in here recently. I think I did a session on Wednesday 18th June, but can't remember what, then I went to Catts on the 24th June - squatted 170x5 high bar. I haven't trained since then. I've had no motivation whatsoever and just CBA!

Friday 3rd July

Clean
50kg x 5
70kg x 3
90kg x 1
100kg x 1
110kg x 0, 1
115kg x 1

Hang power clean

Squat

150kg x 5, 5

Push press + power jerk

Glad to get back into it. Glad to not have to think about the planning of my training any more. Hopefully the Gainz Train can start on full throttle now...
