Cheers A, we'll make plans on the strength of that. Just hope you're not setting me up for a fall like Mrs L did with Pedallo today!!!

Pedallo is a degenerate gambling f**k. He had it coming.

Alan got someone down with a forklift to put the rubber on the roof and then we had to man-handle it into place. 1000lb of rubber band, no grip, hard work, much puffing and panting was done. Alan shouted a few encouraging "HEAVE"'s until John told him it was "f**kin putting him off"

It was a very shaky and rickety stepladder so i guess it is the same one. Quite a sight seeing 130+k of Pedro clambering up it, he didn't look happy, dont reckon he could balance on a cup on a goat on monkey!!!

Early finish, get stuck in traffic, so early start doesnt quite happen!!

LittleA had already suggested a bit of a tear up on cleans by mail earlier in the day so the plan is set!!

First words from Alan "What you on tonight Jeff?"

"A few power cleans Al"

"Power cleans? Good... what's your best on power cleans?" and with that the tone of the session is set, Alan wants a new PB power clean!!

"Might throw a jerk in after the power cleans Al, what do you think?"

"Good, i like to see it go over head"

Alan is happy and i aint started yet, no pressure!!!

Power Clean and Split Jerk
50 x2+1
50 x2+1
80 x2+1
100 x2+1
120 x2+1
130 x2+1
135 x2+1 PB pwr cln for 2
140 x2+1 PB pwr cln for 2
"Go up for a one and one" says Al
145 x1+1 Pb pwr clean
LittleA steps in and loads the bar, no discussions, no consultation, decision made
150 x1+F Pb power clean, failed jerk, went a bit dizzy after a harder than it should have been cln

Alan is happy, he gets what he wanted. he mentioned a 150 pwr cln a few weeks ago, i think i've delivered a couple of weeks ahead of schedule GrinGrinGrinGrin

Too early to claim this as the breakthrough workout we're waiting for, but good stuff. The movement was better than the weight for me.
When I clean 190 I powered 165 the week before.
Cleggy's done a recent 175 and racked in 200.

Too early to start sticking 25K on your power clean??Wink
