LOL no chance of marking at that time, kids don't look after themselves! I'll be lucky to squeeze in anything when they're both up, so will have to do iton the evenings when they're asleep, which I hate doing TBH.

LOL Ben. I think I'm more famous in this one:



Three sessions to catch up on:

Tuesday 29th October

Dungeon session with Andy

Snatch
40kg x 2
50kg x 2
60kg x 2
70kg x 1f2
80kg x f,f
75kg x 1
80kg x f

Felt awful. All of them were sent miles out in front of me, despite trying my best not to!

Clean and jerk
50kg x 1,1
70kg x 1
90kg x 1
100kg x 1
120kg x f,f,f

All of them were failed coming up from the clean (falling forward), apart from the first when my little finger got stuck!

Poor session. More practise needed on the Olympic lifts.

Do you still get down to TRAIN/ 3D?

Burky: I'm doing the English Indoor Rowing champs at the end of January, so there'd be something wrong if there wasn't plenty of rowing in here!

I've not been to Train since the summer holidays, it's just not really convenient for me TBH. Not been to 3D for over a year now. They've just moved premises to a bigger place nearby. Would love to get down some time.

JC: the Oly session was terrible! Just not enough practise on the lifts.

I don't think I look that much younger, do I? Definitely more hair then though...

Would love to come to SAS on Sunday, but I've just got too much stuff I need to get done over the weekend, as in stripping a room and 6-7 hours marking... Have fun!

I agree, the oly session was disappointing for both of us but i did notice that you were a lot quicker under the bar than usual!

Stiff legs looked easy, as they should Wink

Thursday 31st October

Power snatch
40kg x 3,2
50kg x 2,3
60kg x 3
70kg x 3,3,3

Power cleans
50kg x 3,3
70kg x 3
90kg x 3,3,3

I feel like I don't have any power at all at the moment. Can only be a good thing to work on these... On the plus side, they did improve as they went in, but still felt far heavier than they should.

Front squat
60kg x 3
85kg x 3
100kg x 3
115kg x 10 PB

New double ply bumble bees felt great. I don't think they gave me anything though.Wink

Quicker under a bar that I'm pulling up slower and standing up slower with than normal (or not at all!). Good to take the positive though! Grin

LOL my deadlifts are very stiff-legged, although my proper stiff-legged deadlifts are considerably weaker than what I did the other day.

Cheers John. No I'm not coming on Sunday mate.

Andy - I don't know why I feel so 'powerless'? Can only try my best to rectify it...

Friday 1st November

6.00 a.m. session with Andy

Incline bench press
60kg x 3
85kg x 3
95kg x 3
105kg x 8

Concept 2
1000m in 3.41.9 SR 24
5 mins rest
1000m in 3.41.8 SR 24
5 mins rest
1000m in 3.41.6 SR 24
5 mins rest
1000m in 3.33.4 SR 28

Not as hard as I was expecting! I guess I must be getting fitter. I tried to do what Gingy said on the last row and it wasn't too bad. I'm sure it will be as I gradually bring down my split times though as 3.40's is pretty slow for 1000m.
