Looks like training is going well mate. As Joni said, keep it consistant!



Correct! Grin

However, like a true trooper,I will be attempting a Saturday morning session before I go playing cricket. You are welcome to join me? Something like 9ish/10ish to 12.00?

Nice training lately mate. I am no expert but if I aws you i would do push press rather than clean and press, and woulkd maybe clean when you deadlift

for me, one of your main aims should be getting to a 100KG+ push press

Yeah deffo want the 100kg push press. Be a great achievement,
When I do my clean and press, tbh I only do first rep as clean, then push press rest. Could split them and do more cleans.
That’s if its workout 1, I do push press it
My strict press is wank.
Only prob with cleaning when deadlift, is that after first set, it goes way above my cleaning ability. Could do a separate clean workout I suppose. Tho I do like cleaning and push pressing

yeah hoopeing so, think thats doable.
i think im hitting a bit of a wall, will see how next week goes, may change program and go for single for couple weeks then hit back to this plan. tho maybe getting back into strongman will kick start some more improvement.

tho my back feels f**ked today, and trainign tomoro, good times haha

Can only speak from my own experience, but my deadlift has come on most since i started doing "heavy f**king singles" - works a treat IMO Grin

strongman
first time in a while, was good to be back down
forgot my book so i think it went like:

log
(warm up with tyres first, few sets)
67 x 2
70 x 1
70 x 1
70 x 1
70 x f
70 x 2(pb)
70 x 1
cool down with the tyres again, not sure what they weigh.

farmers
farmers x 40
70 x 40
80 x 40(good speed, faster than last time and easy pick up)
85 x couldn pick up. maybe my back was still struggling from deadlifting, but was very surprised couldn shift these. tried a few times aswell.

was a good easy going session, and just gtlad to be back. shame didn get a pb on farmers, but next time should fly up.

im just hopeing its just bruising and swelling, and it will go. if it dosnt go after the weekend may have to do somat.
it actually feels weird, when i touch it, its not numb, but feels like theres a solid bit over the top then can feel it. carnt explain it really, but any force and it hurts like mad. the swelling has gone down which is good. so shud be reet soon hopefully
