I have just applied for a membership form, I'm in! Cheers Dave, things definitely moving in the right direction. I think so mate. I need to have a go at some axle cleans without using a belt though, perhaps see what these Hitler cleans are all about. | ||

Member 2961, 1580 posts SQ 195, BP 120, DL 255570.0 kgs @ 93kgs UnEq | Post Edited: 12.02.2014 @ 07:20 AM by mrbeige 11th February 2014Lunchtime run 6.5km ~35mins Evening session in the Stoubliette 5x5 Incline Press: (warm-up) Barx20, 40x10, 55x3 70x5x5 Total Rep PB 531 Deadlift: (warm-up) Barx20, 65x10, 100x5, 135x5 152.5x5 175x5 200x9 Rep PB ----- (60secs rest) 230x1 230x1 230x1 531 CGBP: (90secs rest) 55x5 65x5 75x13 Rep PB 28kg Kettlebell Single Arm Swings (60secs rest) 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20 Lateral raises: (tripleset, 90secs rest) 10x10x2 10x7 10x6 10x5 Front raises: (tripleset) 20x10x2 20x7 20x6 20x5 Band Pull Aparts: (tripleset) Red bandx10x2 Red bandx7x2 Red bandx6 Stretching Summary Good session. Pressing is coming on leaps and bounds. I only just managed 67.5x5x5 last week, but this week the 70x5x5 was tough but not really a grinder. Deadlift speed was off this week, but strength was there. Ever such a slight hitch on the last rep. Form better on the CGBP, much more triceps isolation. Kettlebell swings were brutal. Posterior chain smoked. Tripleset, as per usual, destroyed delts! That is all. | ||

And all whilst doing running, too. Excellent. Cheers buddy. I think the running might actually be helping, Nick. Promotes blood flow, and improved circulation and all that. I never run for more than 35mins normally. | ||

Pressing was good. Adjusted my grip narrower (as per DV's suggestion) and that seemed to help transfer of power better. Squats were OK. Done more reps than that at heavier weight. I reckon there was at least one more in the tank, but core was done. Shame. Missed the 200 as well. Boo. Front squats in as the comp in June has them. 3 at 120 when fatigued isn't too bad. Ideally I want at least 5 or 6. Testing the water with the Savikas presses. Started light. Will aim for 3 sets at 23kg next time. Ran the two supersets straight into each other, so was more like interval training. I put on my Garmin watch and heart rate monitor to see what was going on, because we all love data. ~18mins, max heart rate 182, during exercises to failure, recovery to ~150bpm during rests. Worked well. That is all. | ||

 he who does the volume wins Member 2498, 3652 posts SQ 160, BP 125, DL 225510.0 kgs @ 109kgs UnEq | That looked a damned good session, had it all, pressing, squats of more than one variety, rows etc. pbs and misloaded fails   That being said it wasn't a catastrophic fail, didn't look that far away  (difficult to tell I realise, but a complete fail is obvious) Also sometimes misloads work wonders when you do get it, if you knew you had 210 on it you may have been psyched out from start. | ||

So true, I wouldn't have even tried 210 if I'd known it was loaded. Wasn't a massive fail. To be fair, I think I'd failed the lift before even getting under the bar. I've only ever failed one other squat and that was at 180. That WAS catastrophic. I basically collapsed under the bar LOL! | ||

 my wood got all bloody Member 1001, 5711 posts SQ 240, BP 160, DL 272.5672.5 kgs @ 102.5kgs UnEq | Nice work, especially the thick handle DB Z-press . It's a little tricky initially but after few weeks you should notice a nice little pop when you start pressing (with a bar). Also do you find they pump the hell out of your shoulder? | ||
