He loves pushing it, and better still he makes you love it. It's a rare gift. | ||

a cynical old scrote Member 68, 6955 posts SQ 255, BP 132.5, DL 250637.5 kgs @ 110kgs UnEq | Friday 30/11/07 Traffic total bollox, 50 minute trip to Adders!!!! Plan was for power cleans, but after the poor show on jerks on Wednesday Alan has other plans. Pwr cleans with a jerk on the last one, narrow foot space, toes out, short snappy jerk!!! Pwr Cln and Jerk 60 x3+1 x3 90 x3+1 110 x3+1 120 x2+1 120 x2+1 with an F pwr cln in the middle Not particularly tidy, so Alan says drop down 110 x2+1 110 x2+1 Alan has been thinking, the inconsistent jerks are an issue. Try a wider grip on the jerk!! Wide grip on the clean as well seeing as it is light 100 x1+5 - the best my jerks have felt 100 x1+3 - wider grip seems an instant winner!!! 100 x1+1 normal clean grip, flick out for the jerk 100 x1+1 as above Will take a bit of getting used to, moving the grip out after then clean but shouldn't take long!!! It has been said before, but Alan Rocks!!!! Incline Smith Machine Press up to 70k on top of whatever the bar etc weighs, for 3x3 T-Bar Row 3x8 Db bent over laterals 3x10 Db curl 3x8 Witnessed some gutsy lifting from DrRick for another clean and push press PB, plenty of bollox talking and off home!!!! | ||

I'd say second, behind not taking Dave Morgan in the England team to the 82 CW games, so he went for Wales and won a gold at each one for the next 20 years. DOH! Nice call  | ||

a cynical old scrote Member 68, 6955 posts SQ 255, BP 132.5, DL 250637.5 kgs @ 110kgs UnEq | Monday 03/12/07 Really early finish for physio appointment for the shoulder. 20 minutes on the Megapulse machine which apparently blasting my dodgy shoulder with electro-magnetic pulses which is supposed to reduce the inflamation and reduce / remove the impingement???? Only the second session on it, not much sign of any improvement as yet??? Hit Adders at 2:30, meet FatPete or was it FitPete in the car park and onwards to a very very cold Adders. All my joints are screaming objections about the cold, and after a 45 minute warm-up with the empty bar they are still not happy. Power Snatch from Hang 50 x3 x3 70 x3 80 x3 90 x3 90 x3 90 x3 It is still cold and my knees are not happy  Drop down and do some full snatch from hang just for the movement Snatch from Hang 50 x3 70 x2 80 x1 90 x1 100 xF 100 xF 95 x1 100 xF 100 xF+1 at f**king last silly bas***d No need for all those Fails, no need at all!!! Front Squat Bar x5 x2 wrist not good 70 x3 x3 115 x3 wrist very painful 135 x2 should have been 3 but wrist pain just got too much. This is due to me f**king up my powercleans on Friday and aggrevating the wrist. Do things right and the wrist is bearable Try a few back squats Squat 115 x3 x2 knees are very tender.... what the f**k is happening tonight!!!!!!!! 145 x3 160 x3 180 x3 not nice, tender knees call a halt to this foolishness for tonight!!!! I should have known with the extended warm-up that things weren't going to go as they should  Go home and stuff your face with anti-inflammatories! | ||

WTF 137.5 x3 bit ragged but all went up, mild bollocking from Al for ever missing something and then getting 3 with it, he's got a point  Did he say that was the last set no matter what??? He lied!!! 100 x3 100 x3 both sets wotking on leg drive!!! Clean Pull 120 x3 150 x3 180 x3 180 x3 180 x3 Wrist and knees were a lot better tonight, knees even felt better from the floor which meant pulls were a bit better than last week!!!
