You could work on the squats and pulls for the time being. Lifting through the pain may not be the most effective way in the long run. If you see what i mean. Plus it's not like your tech is pants anyway! Just my 2p mate! You're 100% right mate, i think kidding myself i can lift through the pain and still expect it to heal right is a bit stupid. Looks like it's pulls and squats only for the time being, s**te, but necessary!! | ||

a cynical old scrote Member 68, 6955 posts SQ 255, BP 132.5, DL 250637.5 kgs @ 110kgs UnEq | Monday 11 October 2010 Fair bit of bar work on the snatch, wrist feels in a better position than last week, bit more movement in it, venture up to 40k for a couple of full snatches and leave it at that.

Clean Pull one strap 140 x3 160 x3 160 x3 160 x3 160 x3 160 x3 Squat knee sleeves 60 x5 110 x3 150 x3 170 x2 170 x2 170 x2 Couldnt be arsed, it was a struggle tonight. Bench Press up to 80k 5x5, wrist was grumbling Old fella is still in hospital so doing a lot of running about and a bit of worrying about him so that probably doesn't help. | ||

Keep them legs strong mate, the wrist will get back to normal eventually. Good memory Mish, you are indeed correct, not been up to 190 for a good while, aS have been favouring the knees but enough is enough. The plan is to get up to 190 for a few doubles on a regular basis and that should be good enough to put me back on the road for 120 / 150. Only trouble with that plan is this fcukin wrist. | ||

a cynical old scrote Member 68, 6955 posts SQ 255, BP 132.5, DL 250637.5 kgs @ 110kgs UnEq | Wednesday 20 October 2010 Plenty of bar work on C&J, wrist was ok, but always is with an empty bar. Started taking my Diclafenec every day now to see if that can speed up the recovery of the wrist. Clean Pull two straps (first time that hasnt irritated the bad wrist) 70 x5 70 x5 120 x3 160 x3 180 x2 200 x2 160 x3 160 x3 160 x3 Front Squat clean grip, just to see how the wrist is 40 x5 60 x5 80 x3 100 x3 110 x2 120 x2 130 x2 Wrist handled these quite well, hmmmmm, but 130 was enough for tonight. Bench Press about 6x5 with something Db Curl 3x10 Quiet tonight, no Al as he's on international duty with Fred. No George, he's on holiday. No Andy, he's having car problems. No Rick, he's AWOL. But Aaron and Jake are there early on and Pete later so some good company none the less. | ||

a cynical old scrote Member 68, 6955 posts SQ 255, BP 132.5, DL 250637.5 kgs @ 110kgs UnEq | Wednesday 27 October 2010 Not touched a weight for a week due to various reasons, but have been having my anti-inflams every day to see if the wrist improves at all. Clean and Jerk Bar x a lot 60 x2 60 x2 60 x2 80 x1 100 x1 120 x1 120 x1 120 x1 130 x clean only 100 x1 (pwr cln+jerk) 100 x1 as above Wrist was ok on these, stiff and achey but not painful. However, i was still very tentative overhead and strange sensations all up my right arm and shoulder. Eight weeks not holding any weight overhead has taken its toll. It will take some time to get moving again by the looks of it. Cleans were nice though. Clean Pull 150 x3 160 x3 160 x3 Back is feeling the overhead work Press 50 x5 60 x5 70 x3 80 x2 80 x2 80 x2 70 x3 70 x3 60 x4 Wrist ok, presses poo Homeski.. At least the wrist let me do some proper stuff tonight, just a shame the lack of overhead work appears to have left me a bit spastic. | ||
