| » Cycling - 'The Cleanest Sport'? (Go to post) | 15-12-2011 @ 12:20 | ||
| I think one of the things with cycling is the type of PED's they use. Traditional blood doping where they draw out a couple of pints, store it, and then pump it back into the athlete a couple of days before a race is notoriously difficult to target, because it's the athletes own blood. I'm pretty sure this is one of the primary reasons for so many cyclists dying over the years during races, because their blood is like syrup!!  A Spanish friend of mine told me about a cyclist in Spain who spat his dummy over something and went on national radio telling everyone about the drugs regimes. It was basically year round use which encompassed periods of steroid use, GH, blood doping protocols depending on when races were happening. How truthful he was I don't know, but nothing would surprise me. | |||

| Snatch 40 2s 5r 60 x3 70 x3 80 2x2 90 3x 1r - nice and easy, my left shoulder was feeling a bit tight so I didn't feeling fancy going any heavier today Front Squat 80 x5 100 x5 120 x5 140 x4+F - WTF. I've not missed a set of 5reps on this in like errr ,forever!! It just kinda slipped of my delts 140 x5 - really hard 140 x5 - bit easier - I'm blaming the *negative (*failed) 180kg I did last Wednesday for fatiguing me Zerchers from floor 100 3x3 After watching Wayne Chowdrey's video with the 190 (I think) a couple of weeks ago I thought I'd have a pop......they absolutely OWNED ME. Christ knows how Wayne did 190....and he told me in his thread that it's "a bit uncomfortable resting on his knees but fine other than that"!!!! He must be double hard! Deadlift - beltless but with straps 100 x3 150 x3 170 x3 190 3s 7r - was originally going to do 5x5 but was running a bit short of time so I thought I'd cut the sets but up the reps. Pretty pleased with this as it's not that long ago when I struggled to do a single with 195!!  Steep incline d/bell press - would have preferred to do bench press but the bench and curls crew were in!  25 x10 30 x10 35 3s 8r - DONE....in | |||

JC said:Not defending the guy one little bit...thief, he may be, but no more than the train company... Train companies are one of the biggest thieving c**ts out there I pay £1500 a year for a 16min each way journey...some in London will pay far far more Yeah, and how often do they run on time? Not f**king very in my experience!! I hate getting the train (and I do it every mon-fri) they're either rammed or late or simply don't turn up'  Oh and don't get me started on the chavs effin' and jeffin' in front of everybody and basically showing no consideration for anyone, just like the little bas***d on the video!! | |||

haydnward said: cheers si: yeah i have done some- mainly clean and pressing for exsplosivness and played with some deads before, squatting has always been a weakness for me, just wana try and get some decent numbers up, shall keep all posted I was about to say that I wouldn't worry too much about the squats as I think deads have a far better carryover to most strongman events.....apart from squatting events!  Looks like you're hammering the deadlifts anyway though, based on your last couple of sessions.I'm surprised your back isn't fried. | |||

mrbeige said:Nice front squats dude! cheers mate. I think it's a genetic thing. I did 145kg the very first time I did them. I'm VERY quad dominant.....hence my s**tty deadlift in comparison!! I think I need to do what you're doing and give myself some written goals. I've got a really bad habit of moseying along with some lifts | |||

| Hahaaa, the thing is Jabba you and your wife are both excellent at baking. Now if the lazy mare I've married tried baking mince pies there's little chance of me eating more than one. And that would be a purely token effort!! | |||

davycummings said:I think people in society need to stand up and say that this kind of antisocial behaviour is not something we need to accept. I dont think it is always necessary for there to be a physical intervention, and in most cases it is best avoided, but these people need to be stood up to. Here here! Problem is that little scratters like this don't respond to anything other than physical violence/intimidation. Bring back the days of getting a kicking off the local bobby if you were doing wrong. | |||

| Good luck fella, Perfectly realistic goals, which is good, and you've already got a nice mix of strongman beneficial lifts in there with the deads and zerchers. How long have you given yourself to try and hit your goals? | |||
