Chin-Up:
1 x 5
3 x 4
1 x 3
Missed 50kg on shoulder press, got it up a tiny bit and then it was all nope. I just thought today was the day.
On the plus side, my glute is getting better and might not be a problem come deadlift day, even if it is I can still do something light.
Shoulder rehab seems to be working but it burns so much, and band pull aparts leave your hands stinking of latex.

I found it difficult to deadlift today, once I start loading the glutes/ hip I feel weak, but I know I could back lift it no problem (which would just encourage my bad start.) It's annoying because my glute hasn't been much of a problem on squats this week.
My forearms felt like marshmallows after I took the shirt off.

Feet up Bench press:

Chest supported rows:

I'll probably be moving down to trebles for a bit on squat so that I'm less destroyed by the volume.
Got a new bike and traded in the older one. It feels much more natural posture wise and I can go faster, but I'm not used to the balance difference and I'm weary of turning very sharpy like I did on the old one. It's also the manliest bike in the world.

Chin-Up:
1 x 5
4 x 4
Did some fannying about with stretches to help out Ross with his back and glutes. They seem to be working, also showed him the snazzy pec/ shoulder stretch that I learned last night.
Dropping back and hitting volume on shoulder press because I'm stalling now, pin presses look goo to progress. Dropping a bit of volume on front squats and getting the weight up, so that when I'm back down at 85kg my upper back will stay tighter.

Glute felt fine on deadlifts today, but I'm still not happy. I need to be lifting more than this.
I did figure out a start for singles and confirmed it by comparing my 142.5kg BDFPA lift to my 145kg SPF lift and the start is better in the BDFPA version and lets me keep a steady pull and some good acceleration once I break off the floor. The same technique isn't so great for reps since there's unecessary faffage between reps that doesn't need to be there.
Point to take away:
Only do the cheating glute loading at the start or during a single, it's not needed in reps 2 onwards because the glute and hamstring are already active.

Deadlift will get there, just need to keep pulling.
Went to a fancy training event for judo tonight so I could practice with some girls my own size, got accosted by teenage boys in the u60/u66 cats.
It's a shame because one of the girls there had been itching to go up against me since I was a tiny wee u48/u52 and didn't get a chance tonight. Would have belly flopped her any way.
Wiegieboard01/05/13 @ 03:23
Strong squats tonight btw. Walkouts looked heavy as f**k but once you started the squats you made the weight look easy. Great line.

Deadlifts were a non starter today. It was really annoying, back was being prefectly fine untill I'd go for a second rep then suddenly decided that it's time to feel snappy. Could handle volume at 100kg without feeling snapy and it felt like it might have eased my back off a little bit. I just want some nice deadlifting for once, is that so much to ask?
Also, benched like a boss.

They do seem to help stretch. It seems like every one has gone on holiday to snap city at the moment.

Superb benching today, we are nearly there, you're not modest at all you did what had to be done, you will pull it back - excuse the pun, get it worked on then rest then go again.
Yeah really enjoying my extended 5 month vacation into injury, its a snapathon!!

I'm glad I learned the valuable life lesson of not training through wrong feeling pain.
Part of your brain is going "Nah you're good for this" and the sensible part is like "Rest now, last longer."
