Monday 21/01/08

The 5x5's continue, Alan reckons keep going till i get a PB 5. Friday was mission accomplished, see how tonight goes, legs may still be a bit fried from Friday but who knows???

Squat
70 x5
70 x5
115 x5
145 x5
160 x5
180 x5 not too bad, what the heck!!!
205 x5 PB
180 x5
Technically i could drop 5's for a bit now, but not too sure, I will consult Alan to see if i should do another week or so

Clean and Jerk
At least the legs are thoroughly warmed up
50 x1+3
50 x1+3
50 x1+5
100 x1
120 x1
140 x1
150 x1 Jerks still a bit ropey but they all went up. Alan wants a drop down, bit tired now but ok
142.5 x1 "That wasn't good enough, you can do it again!" says Alan. I'm now pretty f**ked
142.5 x1 "Much better, if you'd done it like that first time you wouldn't have had to do it again!! You'll do ok once you start training properly" cheers AlGrin

Clean Pull
170 x3
180 x3
190 x3
200 x3

Bent Over Row 100 x8 x3

Press
80 x3
100 x3
100 x3
100 x3
90 x5

And that is that!! Probably one of the best workouts of the last 18 months to be honest all things considered.

Impressive Wigan.

If the 5s are still going great I don't see much point in changing it.

Those squats looked very strong, rest of the session looks solid too! Nice work!

Cheers Tony. I definitely seem to be reaping the benefits from the 5's on everything else which would indicate that i should stay on them for a while, only thing is i don't really like them very much

Unhappy

solid work mate, dont like 5's very much either, it's a bit of a marathon to me but you seem to get results and this squat pb is calling for more in 3's and 1'sWink

Good and busy night. Joni and Jonnymills blasting the platform deadlifts. Rob getting Pb's on the bench again, Rick wearing some form of leotard, Mark F making good progress on his overhead work, LittleA suffering much the same as me on snatches, just a % or so missing tonight which makes a difference.

Off home which tender hands that have less skin on them than a couple of hours ago

Good snatching tonight Jeff. 115 for 2 was very solid, and like you say, all the misses were plenty high enough.

It was busy on that platform tonight - there was even an orderly queue forming at one point. 8 people wanting some lemon freshness/deadlift stinkiness. Your comment "we've got another perfectly good platform over there, if we move the benches to the 'gay' room" tickled me.Grin
