Nice run of PBs recently.

A 400lb behind the neck push press is some f**king going.



Cheers T, unfortunately the PB's i've been getting haven't always been in the lifts i'd most like, but have to admit to enjoying getting the recent press related PB's Grin

400lb push press would be impressive, unfortunately my PB of the night was only 303lbWink

LOL, thats what I meant.

Your favourite lifts will come. Judging by your other lifts the strength is definately there you just need it all to click one night.

Cheers Hayden, not got any secret goals, would have liked a 160 clean and jerk on this build up. Unfortunately i've cleaned it and i've jerked (from racks)it but not clean and jerked it. I'm feeling a bit jaded now so will probably back off for a week and then start a new routine sort of thing. Snatches are coming back, lots of squats and lots of pulls and probably even some dealifts. Aim will be to build up my basic strength, which is where i'm lacking, and see what happens Grin

Had a night off on Wednesday, probably not do me any harm...

Friday 14/03/08

Loosen off and see what happens, tonight was pencilled in as one last attempt at a big C&J before a change in training...

Clean and Jerk
bar x loads - lots of tightness in wrist and elbows
60 x2
60 x2
60 x2 niggles and pains everywhere
90 x1
90 x1
110 x1
130 x1 - leave it, just not there, mind not on it, thinking about little pains too much!!!
140 x1 - go on then, just one more, it's only pain
150 xF - nice clean, close jerk

That's really it now for heavy Oly stuff, come to the end of the line, physically and mentally. Time for a change.

"Just do one more thing for me says Alan, just one" - which turned into 3 sets

Clean from hang
100 x2
100 x2
100 x2

Clean Pull
140 x3
170 x3
190 x3
190 x3
190 x3
170 x3
170 x3
170 x3

Time to go family stuff on the agenda for tonight!!!

"Before you go, just try one thing for me" familiar words from Alan

Snatch Pull
Really working at getting knees back and keeping shoulders over
60 x5 2 turned into power snatches
60 x5 2 pull 3 power snatch
60 x5 all power snatch

Really is time to go. Off to the school Easter Disco, me Mrs Wigan and the 3 kids. Turned out ok, kids loved it and i came away with the best dancing Dad prize!!!GrinGrinGrin

You are so going to wish that I did not know that. Practise some moves for Monday dude, this I want to see, if ever anything had "yuotube" written all over it, it's this

Was the prize the cjance to post a fat fool's deadlift from 8 days ago ?
