always lookIng for the extra UT2 work. Member 9, 18279 posts SQ 210, BP 167.5, DL 260637.5 kgs @ 103kgs UnEq | Sonds good to me! As long as you get in plenty of protein you'll be fine Bad news about the shoulder though - it's quite stiff so I've got 2 options: 1, totally rest it till Sat 2, Try to loosen it up with shoulder rehab stuff like stretching, dislocates light face pulls external rotations etc What would YOU do? | ||

I would do *very* light mobility exercises and ever so slight stretching to keep the blood flowing which aids the recovery process. | ||

always lookIng for the extra UT2 work. Member 9, 18279 posts SQ 210, BP 167.5, DL 260637.5 kgs @ 103kgs UnEq | Unit 20 Novice strength challenge 03/11/07 100kg axle clean and press for reps 5 reps + 1 clean 3rd place Pretty pleased with that. Need to bring my overhead up now so that I'm hitting double figures with this kind of weight. 15 inch deadlift 200kg, 220kg, 230kg, 240kg 8th place Only hit 220 in training so pleased with that too. It seemed a bit easier than in the gym, maybe the bar was a bit higher? Really need to bring my deadlift up now as this let me down today. 320kg yoke 11 metres 9.34 seconds 3rd place A bit all over the place with it as I didn't have it set right on my back (I had the crossbar a bit too high), one drop, but a pretty decent time non-the-less. 280kg frame carry 10 metres up a ramp 6.43 seconds 2nd place (by 0.03 seconds!) Pretty pleased with this, felt really easy, should have been 300kg at a minimum, prefferably more. 50kg thick handled DB press 10 reps joint 3rd place Reasonably happy with that. I have done 12 in training, but it was a different DB and not a 5th event, so can't complain really. 135kg stone over yoke (51 inches) 4 reps 4th place Overall: 4th place Should have had the 5th as I'd done all the hard work, but it wouldn't have made any difference to the overall placings. So overall a pretty good performance for me personally, just not enough to get a trophy (although I was in third going into the last event Mike Daly nailed 8 reps on the stone 135kg which sealed me a fourth spot). Was a top comp, big thanks to everyone who helped out. Cheers for the goodie bag too, looking forwards to next year already Joni and Pete did themselves proud, so the dungeon had a good outing.

always lookIng for the extra UT2 work. Member 9, 18279 posts SQ 210, BP 167.5, DL 260637.5 kgs @ 103kgs UnEq | Not 3 bad, shoulder is still a bit stiff but pressing doesn't seem to bother it so it's fine. How about you? Wed 7/11 Power jerks 60kg x 2,2, 70kg x 2, 80kg x 2, 90kg x 2, 100kg x 2,2,2, 90kg x 3, 80kg x 5 Strict standing press 60kg x 10, 70kg x 10 Narrow grip bench press 60kg x 8, 70kg x 8, 80kg x 8, 90kg x 8 Power jerks weren't as easy as they should be, technique needs lots of work on these. Narrow grips need lots of work too, time to get stuck in! | ||

Trump will get another four years Member 126, 16707 posts SQ 160, BP 110, DL 225495.0 kgs @ 75kgs UnEq | Is a power jerk a push press with a dip of the legs? please excuse my stupidity and lack of knowledge of proper lifting terms. | ||

always lookIng for the extra UT2 work. Member 9, 18279 posts SQ 210, BP 167.5, DL 260637.5 kgs @ 103kgs UnEq | Yeah, what you do is basically a power jerk. The 'proper' way though is to catch it with straight arms (eliminating the lockout) which is what I need to work on as even with light weights I'm pressing them out for the last few inches, and this gets quite hard when weights approach 100k. I actually think a push press is easier than a power jerk with bad technique, but a power jerk has more potential, hence why I'm doing them and working my technique on them! | ||
