You look great, you run great, swim great and cycle great. Why shouldn't you smell great too? I think you'll be able to master the kind of technique that you'll need at your age Jon (& you know I don't mean any disrespect by that, just that you'll be lifting against other people your age who aren't so ace).

I'd love to see that anyway.Wink

Bet those 5s were tough on the pulls! I know mine were!
Kominski turn up and pay? I saw him and mentioned it. He said he was popping in this evening.


Would have been a different session with Apti around giving me grief

No kominski!!

Boar said:Wiggers ! Having just started powerlifting (training) I am enjoying it , I am hoping to do a gbpf comp later in the year , to run alongside this I have a hanking to at least try to learn a bit of weightlifting , is this possible for a 43 year old dog ? I don't have any manly bits but Mrs wild boar is expecting a piglet in May , so things are gonna get busy n stuff.

Good luck in March ! You n Millsy could be twins in that singlet !


I remember you doing some power cleans and continental cleans and overhead stuff at Adders many moons ago. There is no doubt in my mind that you could pick up the lifts sufficiently to aquit yourself well on a platform Wink

Mills should have his own singlet by the British so wont be borrowing mine again, I will hopefully need it myself Grin

Tonight I tried to snatch, and failed! My right hand hurt tok much. I'm not nkw sure what to do for the British Masters.

a) Dont bother
b) Lift and hope that the competition is weak enough for me to take a token 60k snatch and pull it back on the C&J.
c) Dont snatch again until the day, take loads of painkillers and see what I can do
d) Dont bother

Not ideal! Unhappy

Didnt pull as was sulking

Squat
70 x5
100 x3
120 x3
140 x3
150 x3, x3, x3

Press
50 x10, x10, x10, x10

Home, just a little bit sulky

Sulking is a young mans game. Snatching is forever. That's about all I have.
