Lol, didn't see any off it. Although noticed on FB that Si Doherty (remember him from the baths?) did his tenth BUPA today, in 53 mins, man that's only 12 mins quicker than my one and only, either he's s**t or I'm not as s**t as I thought PMSL!!!! The proper f**kers are f**kin quick!!! I wouldn't be able to keep pace with them for their last 100m lol | ||

a cynical old scrote Member 68, 6955 posts SQ 255, BP 132.5, DL 250637.5 kgs @ 110kgs UnEq | Wednesday 21 May 2014 Missed Monday due to middle daughter being ill. Fancied trying a full movement today for some reason. Clean and Jerk 60 x1+2, x1+2 80 x1, x1 90 x1 100 x1,x1,x1,x1,x1 Almost enjoyed these, weak as piss and very rusty and out of condition but ok Clean Pull 120 x3 140 x3,x3,x3,x3 Press 3x2 2x3 1x5 1x10 Nice to do a full movement, it's been a while. Been doing a lot of stretching on the shoulders as they've been stiff as s**t, and I can feel the difference. Another week and I may try a few snatches to see if the improved shoulder mobility takes any pressure off the hand. Pleasant chats with Pete and Jake and off home for half an hour with the youngest and then catch the last our of middle daughters gymnastics. | ||

The after effects of the 10k lasted too long for my liking so can't see them being a regular thing. Did a 6.5 on Sunday morning when I dropped Holly off at gym, quite pleasant it was too. Who would ever have thought | ||

Did a 6.5 on Sunday morning when I dropped Holly off at gym, quite pleasant it was too. Who would ever have thought I find distance stuff is like a beer gut. You don't set out looking for it. You just wake up one day and you're miles away from home with a sweat on. | ||

Member 4046, 590 posts | Post Edited: 21.05.2014 @ 21:03 PM by dave_rogerson Also,I've been doing these for while now for my shoulders with a bit of weight for sets and reps and they feel awesome as a result. Really improved how they feel. I tend to use a couple of 5 plates during my warm ups most days and sometimes do them as part of a session at the end. Thing I found was to raise the arms to the side and pause at the top and while in this position, try to maintain and keep the thumbs up and palms up like doing a curl (they will want to rotate back around, so you may have rotate them in the opposite direction). Also found that doing some straight arm dumbell pullovers with the hands in a neutral position (2 light dumbells pressed together) really stretches out the lats really well. | ||

Member 4046, 590 posts | A bit like this but with straight arms and the dbs pressed tightly together making sure that elbows stay in the same position throughout and not to let them rotate (as you raise the arms they will want to turn; dont let them): | ||

a cynical old scrote Member 68, 6955 posts SQ 255, BP 132.5, DL 250637.5 kgs @ 110kgs UnEq | Tuesday 27 May 2014 Struggling to get down at the minute, so took the opportunity to call in when i could. Been carrying a twinge in my lower back all week so wasnt planning on doing anything proper. Deadlift 60 x10,x10,x10,x10,x10 To get some blood flowing through the dodgy back Press 60 x5,x5,x5,x5,x5 50 x10,x10,x10 Press Machine 4x10 Low Pulley Row 1x12,5x10,1x12 Nothing more than a token BB session, and a small one at that. Sets were supersetted with sweeping a very dusty Adlington out (the main room), and cleaning and mopping out the toilet. | ||
