a cynical old scrote Member 68, 6955 posts SQ 255, BP 132.5, DL 250637.5 kgs @ 110kgs UnEq | Monday 07/01/08 Another night of 5x5 on squats, evident early on that a light one is in order / necessary Squat 70 x5 x2 115 x5 140 x5 160 x5 180 x5 160 x5 Not much life in these, still feeling Friday's fronties maybe?? Clean and Jerk First time in a good while, strict instructions from Alan not to go any heavier than 80% 40 x2 x3 60 x1 x3 90 x1 110 x1 120 x1 130 x1 plus 3 jerks Not much life in these either, much the same as the squats but they all went up and the 3 jerks with 130 at the end were ok-ish  Press 60 x5 x2 70 x5 80 x3 90 x3 x3 80 x5 Db front raise x8 + Db side raise x8 x3 Bent over Db row 4x10 Usual bollox talking with various chaps, FatPete did his 5x5 squats in a record 1 1/2 hours, all is good!!! Off home, but not without standing in a f**king big muddy puddle in Adders car park first though!! | ||

a cynical old scrote Member 68, 6955 posts SQ 255, BP 132.5, DL 250637.5 kgs @ 110kgs UnEq | Wednesday 09/01/07 s**t boring day at work, late finish so only get to Adlington gone 5. Place is packed, LittleA is just finishing off his snatches, the man has not been well and still isn't 100% and 130+ is still flying!!! Snatches for me too, not done any proper snatches for a couple of months now don't don't expect much. Snatch 40 x3 x3 timing all over the place, not pretty 60 x2 even less pretty 80 x2 ugly 90 x2 WTF 100 x2F just not moving 100 x2 marginally better 100 x2 best set of the night, last one bob on. Still not feeling good though. Moving sluggish and timing all over the place, ah well. First session back on them should be the hardest, onwards and upwards!! Snatch Pull 120 x3 120 x3 130 x2 140 x2 150 x2 150 x2 140 x2 130 x2 120 x2 110 x2 Now i'm f**ked!! Movement on these pretty much the same as the snatch, not snappy enough, not enough speed!! Db bent over row 3x10 No time or energy for anyhting else, i'm spent!! Off home but only after successfully negotiating the Adlington puddle!! Arrive home with dry feet!!! | ||

still a devious weightlifting bastard Member 43, 14379 posts | We should of lapped the car park another 3 times and if we still had dry feet we could of claimed it as a 4 rep PB. They are a propper number for a real set you know. Honest! Last set of 100's were vintage 'Jeff-heaven'. Not in a piss take way, it was nice to see you struggling with the same thing as me. Makes me think it's more our stage of a build up rather than anything more sinister. | ||

Still coughing up blobs of s**t but a little less each day so maybe it is finally going!!! Jeff-Heaven!!!! LOL | ||

Front Squat 50 x5 x2 90 x5 115 x5 135 x5 wrist is feeling suprisingly ok 150 x5 actually felt like i was moving properly 135 x5 as above Pleased with these, improvement on last week and felt relatively good!! Push Press (behind neck) 70 x3 x2 90 x3 110 x3 120 x2 120 x2 moving well 120 x4+F looking good until i missed No.5, to**er!!! Would have been a pb 5, but as everyone knows you can't have a pb 4!!! And with that i'm done, not really anything left in the tank these 5x5's take it out of you tried some incline smith machine, shoulder screams no f**king way my son!!! T-Bar row 3x10 Press machine 3x8 Ez Curl 4x8 Watched DrRick make some progress on his pwr clean, then blast up a 60k power snatch with little effort at the first ever attempt, and finish off hitting near perfect positions on clean grip front squats, good man!!! Bit of bollox talking with LittleA, Rob and Rick and then off home it is!!! | ||

(Just curious) No Jonny the pushies were from behind neck again tonight, quite like them so may stick with them for a while, i seemto be able to really concentrate on getting up on my toes at the top of the drive more from behind neck and Alan reckons the carry over to my jerks will be the same, which is good enough for me. | ||
