Looks good to my untrained eye, but then I don't really know enough about kettlebells to comment Cheers buddy. Hope you had a good one! My snatches need some work cos it kept smahing off my forearms in a few of them but ill get the technique sorted soon. Today decided to do some conditioning style stuff. Ive not done any cardio of any sort in a long time so not great but im determined to get better. Started off doing some stuffd with the mini band for shoulder mobility eg various raises, rotator cuff movements and dislocations and then moved onto the kettlebell. 20kg Kettlebell Complex - 3 Sets 15 x Right arm Swings 15 x Left arm Swings 15 x Double arm Swings 15 x Bodyweight squats I started out thinking i might go for 5 sets but was breathing HARD after these. Will build up to more sets in the coming weeks. I have a whole new respect for Boars kettlebell antics! Will post the video once its done loading onto youtube. | ||

Also made sure i used the bigger cast plates as im sceptical the other 20kg plates actually weigh that...Bench Bar x loads 40kgs x 5 40kgs x 10 60kgs x 5 60kgs x 5 80kgs x 5 100kgs x 5 100kgs x 5 100kgs x 5 100kgs x 5 100kgs x 5 Strict press 40kgs x 8 50kgs x 5 60kgs x 5 65kgs x 2(was knackered on these for some reason  )65kgs x 5 (push pressed these ones) Lat Pulldowns Full stack x 5 Full stack x 5 Full stack x 5 Full stack x 5 Full stack x 5 Pullups BW x 3 BW x 3 Bw x 3 BW x 3 BW x 3 Dumbell Rows Ghettobell x 20 (10 each side) Ghettobell x 20 (10 each side) I have no idea what weight the stack was on the pulldowns but felt a bit heavier than strathys full stack. The ghettobell was a big chunky thing that looked like it had been bodged together in someones back garden. Id guess it weighed about 50kgs or more cos it was a bit a fair bit heavier than the 40 but again not really sure. Quite pleased with the the 100kgs for 5x5 but didnt feel up for it at all today for some reason. | ||

Member 1384, 483 posts SQ 210, BP 140, DL 275625.0 kgs @ 97kgs UnEq | Haha it was quite a sight. Trained this morning in the councils new gym since the other one i normally train at didnt open til 12 and needed to go early. My ipod ran out of battery before this so i didnt have anything to listen to other than the gyms music. Think it must have been lovesongFM or something cos there was nothing but enrique englaises and other rubbish. Wasnt really up for it, had no chalk and full of the cold but still glad i went in. Really need to get in contact about Burns gym. Anyway... Deadlifts - Beltless Bar x a few 70kgs x 10 70kgs x 5 120kgs x 5 170kgs x 3 200kgs x 3 Stiff Legged Deadlifts 120kgs x 5 120kgs x 5 120kgs x 5 Powercleans 70kgs x 5 70kgs x 5 80kgs x 3 Called it a day after this and went home. My hands were really sore after the powercleans which was surprising. Cant wait to get back to Strathclyde for the equipment and training partners. | ||

Member 1384, 483 posts SQ 210, BP 140, DL 275625.0 kgs @ 97kgs UnEq | Got in contact with Stuart Murray about Burns gym so went along and worked in with him and another guy for squats. Saw him shift some big weights and make them look easy! Anyway... Squats Bar x loads 60kgs x 8 80kgs x 5 100kgs x 5 120kgs x 3 140kgs x 3 (belt on) 160kgs x 1 180kgs x 1 190kgs x 1 - PB 200kgs x F/1 Log Mini log (45kgs) x 10 60kgs x 5 60kgs x 5 Bigger log (65kgs) x 3 65kgs x 3 65kgs x 3 80kgs x 1 (push press) Pullups BW x 5 (wide grip) BW x 5 (wide grip) BW x 5 (wide grip) BW x 5 (wide grip) BW x 5 (wide grip) BW x 5 (palms facing narrow grip) BW x 5 (palms facing narrow grip) BW x 5 (palms facing narrow grip) BW x 5 (palms facing narrow grip) BW x 5 (palms facing narrow grip) Dumbell Rows 60kgs x 5 (each arm) 60kgs x 5 (each arm) 60kgs x 5 (each arm) Really good session and fancied playing about with the logs. Squats felt really good so fancied going for a PB. The 190kgs was harder than it should have been as i fell forward a little coming out of the hole and the 200kgs was soooo close. I got stuck at my sticking point for about 3 seconds and then stuart just helped my chest up. Not long until ill get this. Was also good having a go with some heavier dumbells. A good first session there and looking forward to going back. | ||

Member 1384, 483 posts SQ 210, BP 140, DL 275625.0 kgs @ 97kgs UnEq | Was planning on going to the gym to do some conditioning stuff but then a couple of guys came in to deadlift and felt the need to join them. Barbell complex - Deadlifts, Cleans, Presses, Front squats Bar x 10 of each Bar x 10 of each 40kgs x 6 of each 40kgs x 6 of each Deadlifts 70kgs x 5 110kgs x 5 150kgs x 5 190kgs x 3 210kgs x 3 (Probably a beltless PB) Didnt do anything too harsh on the deadlifts after squatting yesterday but was surprised at how good they felt. The 210kgs for 3 is probably the most ive deadlifted beltless but i think ill keep with the beltless 3's over the next couple of weeks and mibi put the belt on towards 230/240. After that ill work towards a new max single. Id also initially thought the top two sets were 200kgs and 220kgs but adding up properly found it to be different. | ||

Member 1384, 483 posts SQ 210, BP 140, DL 275625.0 kgs @ 97kgs UnEq | Went in today looking forward to doing some bench but my elbows have been bothering me the past few days and had to stop early. Bench Bar x a few 60kgs x 5 60kgs x 5 80kgs x 5 100kgs x 1 Stopped there cos my elbows were really giving me quite alot of pain when lowerin the bar with any significant weight. After this i did alot of bicep and hammer curls with a mini band as i seem to remember seeing something similar on Tom Martins log or BigMaccas. Hopefully its just a short term thing. | ||
