a.k.a. Kick Ass Show Joe Member 526, 1071 posts | Right.. i have now tried my hand at Strongman.. Bloody great sport with top athletes and some awesome competitions.. Ive come from an Olympic Lifting background which has helped me a hell of alot through my time in Strongman.. I havent lifted in a weightlifting comp in over 4 years and my last comp was the British U-18s Championships which i won, in 2008 ive been watching the Olympics and as usual ive been thinking too much..The Commonwealth Games are in Scotland in 2014. so i thought f**k it! why not get my head down and have ago at training for the Commonwealth trials.. So this will be my new training journal to follow my lifting.. I will be competing in the 105kg class.. ive got some goals in mind that i think are within me with the right hardwork and training.. Will put the odd vid on aswell.. | ||

a.k.a. Kick Ass Show Joe Member 526, 1071 posts | Bodyweight right now is 120kg.. im way off the 105kg i want to be but confidant i will lose it in time for my first comp back.. Im confidant that i should be ready to compete this november at a Northern Championships.. mainly to get some platform time back as its been 4 years since i last did a weightlifting competition.. Had a chat with coach Clegg last night to sort out my goals and some sort of structure to my training.. So far ive had 2 weeks of basically seeing where im at with my olympic lifts. This has led me to believe that right now i am slow and abit sluggish with the lifts. I seriously need to work on my flexibility as 4 years of strongman has made me the most un flexible person about.. Heres some lifts from the last 2 weeks... Snatch 100kg/110kg Clean and Jerk 150kg/160kg Front Squat 200kg | ||

I think that strongman will slow my progression as i really need to concentrate on the technical side of things.. | ||

a.k.a. Kick Ass Show Joe Member 526, 1071 posts | Post Edited: 22.08.2012 @ 11:06 AM by FatHubble Had a good session today. My snatching is feeling like its getting faster every session, and my shoulder flexibility is becoming better as the weights go up..Cleans where a little sluggish tonight but felt strong never the less.. Snatched up to 120 for 2 singles.. first 120 was slightly forward but felt like i nailed the second single... Cleans.. Went up to 160 for a double.. Felt strong on the pull.. Back Squat.. Went up to 200kg for 3x3 and that s**t felt heavy.. Need to seriously get my back squat back up to some sort pf respectable weight!! Heres the vid of 120kg Snatch and 160kg Clean for a double... | ||
