 always lookIng for the extra UT2 work. Member 9, 18279 posts SQ 255, BP 167.5, DL 330752.5 kgs @ 103kgs Eq | Fine day’s work old timer! Yuk! Rowing and benching are two great strengths of yours - keep your eyes out for that comp if it’s on again and claim your prize. | ||

 old age traveller Member 332, 7980 posts | Thanks guys, Whilst I lay in bed last night and I realised week 21 was finished a warm glow came over me (No I had not pissed myself) Todays 2x15 seems almost like a day off! ERG 4mins 940m 19 111 2x15UT1 4079m 1.50.3 23 149 3994m 1.52.6 23 151 4mins 890m 17 118 I attacked rep 1 from the outset and was rewarded with a UT1 pb. Messed about doing some OLLY stuff powersnatch up to singles with 51kg this seems to be about the limit of my "good technique". Followed on with some power cleans into power jerk again up to 51kg my rack position leaves a lot to be desired. Finished off with some kettle bell swings. | ||

old age traveller Member 332, 7980 posts | Thanks guys, I am just messing with the olly stuff at present see what I have left. I built a mezzanine in the shed/gym so have to do it outside on the grass which is not ideal. Mr BIm, I did miss 2x12UT1 and 60mins of UT2 so don't feel too bad if you skip a rep or 2. Turd night last night followed by a day up and down ladders feels like I have climbed the equivalent of Everest. ERG 1189m 20 115 2x10AT 2805m 1.46.9 26 152 2743m 1.49.3 26 159 4mins 874m 16 121 Bench 90x28 90x28 90x21 Thought I might get a few more on first set but pumped and burned. | ||

old age traveller Member 332, 7980 posts | Bim said:Very nice! Are you just doing extra AN for fun now? It's a vanity thing, I have slipped down the rankings and have 2 days to rectify it. Last night and this morning my plan was a 500m but after a tough day and a tweaky back i wimped and did the easier option. I might have a crack at the 500 tomorrow depending on how I feel after work. Tomorrows session is 8x500 so I guess I could have 8 attempts! | ||

old age traveller Member 332, 7980 posts | So I managed not to talk myself out of doing a 500, but I did not warm up properly and did not really get going previous pb was 50spm which I think is a bout right for a max 500m ERG 10mins 2224m 17 116 100m 18.7 1.33.5 35 500m 1.25.3 43 163 DF164 A small pb of 2 tenths, Monitor stopped at 1.25.2 which would of been slightly less disappointing. Gone up from joint 10th to joint 8th in GBR rankings. Had about 40minutes sulking and skulking then went back for some more I should be able to do 4x5001MR @1.39 right? Wrong halfway through rep1 lungs were painful so binned off the rest intervals and took 3-4minutes. 4x500m 1.38.9 32 148 1.38.4 30 146 1.37.5 29 154 1.33.1 33 160 5mins 1120m 19 123. | ||

6:19.WTF Member 3359, 3677 posts SQ 250, BP 210, DL 295755.0 kgs @ 89kgs UnEq | Still a nice pb and 500's, I think after a 500m pb any intervals I did after that would suffer for sure. | ||
