the ferryman will always need his coin. Member 1085, 408 posts SQ 220, BP 175, DL 285680.0 kgs @ 94kgs UnEq | Mixed bag of training throughout March April, Weight still 91.5 in morning Been working on my Athletics techniques & conditioning alot, and playing around with my weightlifting tech. highlights have been 130 full clean, slowly getting closer to my current power clean no's with the increase confidence to get under the bar. still got a habit of unhooking my pinkie and ring fingers on both hands while dipping under the bar on the clean which f**ks me up when i stand up as i then need to try to get them back under again for the jerk. Beyond 120 jerks would all be classed as push outs so a lot to work, ref tech still required there. Struggling with shoulder flexibilty on Snatch so now playing about with split snatch might be the way forward for me if i want to compete. Plyos seem to be improving also , up to 3.18 and consistently over 3.10 for standing long jump and box jumps up to 57" Dragged out my 13" log out of curiosity. 135 went up, WTF, fresh legs seems to be the difference, 140 was a no no tho,shoulder not happy,if i can get my right shoulder fixed, overhead should vastly improve...cleaned 150 with a bit of tech and handle placement tweaking. Getting more confident in loading my back up, been a 3 yr long monkey on it, rack pulled from about 22" 310 no straps, held on for a few seconds before grip went, straps on 330 for a few, easier than i thought plenty more there. Hammering my grip every other day as i did last year didnt work for me it seems, as my grip is def improved with less work and more rest. Everythink else seems to be coming on nicely with slow improvements in most lifts either by weight, rep or speed of execution. In summary, less is def becoming more, with fewer injuries, and more consistent training as a result. enjoying my training right now. | ||
