Squats were awesome.
Deads were equally as good, the 4th wasn't even an attempt mate, you already talked yourself out of it. 3 should equal 260 though...

Looking in great shape to smash your squat and deadlift 1RM PBs mate
227/272 next 6-8 weeks would be great (and is hugely possible IMO)

Cheers fellas. I feel fairly strong at the moment. I just hope my new squat power carries over more to my front squat, and my weightlifting. I'm under no illusions about being a good weightlifter due to lack of mobility/explosiveness/quads (plus being technically crap), but I do think I can get some semi-decent lifts in if I can be consistent.Adam - that was a low bar PB done years ago - high bar PB is 190 which I did last week, so I agree, I should be on for a new PB soon.
JC - 227/272 would be great lifts for me. I honestly never thought my high bar would get anywhere near that high, but I'm starting to believe now.
Wednesday 16th April
Block snatch
40kg x 2, 2
50kg x 2
60kg x 2, 2, 2, 2, 2
70kg x 2
Neck jerk
50kg x 2
70kg x 2
90kg x 2
110kg x 2, 2, 2, 2, 2
Just did the bare minimum tonight. Jerks were better than last week, but not great.
Just trying to get used to the positions in snatch - no rush with the weight.
Finished session at just before 22.30 - after getting up at 5.00, so just happy to do something.

Cheers for vids Andy. Enjoyed it this morning!
Friday 18th April
Dungeon session with Andy
Power snatch + snatch
40kg x 2
50kg
60kg
70kg x 5
80kg x fail snatch
80kg x fail snatch
80kg x snatch only
70s improved as they went on. Shouldn't have tried the 80s really...
Neck jerk
50kg x 2, 2
70kg x 2
90kg x 2
100kg x 2
110kg x 2
120kg x 2, 2, 2, 2, 2
130kg x 2
135kg x 3 PB
142.5kg x f, 1 PB
145kg x fail
All jerked out - just tired in the end!
Front squat
60kg x 5
100kg x 3
120kg x 5
135kg x 3
152.5kg x 2f3 PB - rubbish!
I'm blaming the poor front squats on being tired from a long session. I'm sure there's 3 there a bit more fresh. I really need to get my front squat on the up now - will probably up them to twice a week from now on.
