Cheers, Dave the lighter ones that were pressed I didn't put on the video but I think both the 125s that were in the video were clearly pressed out, don't you think?
Nah, I can't really ride them in, I did sort of on the first 125 but usually I just catch with bent arms and hips dont sink in.


I've watched this a few times now and not so sure really mate. I'd say that maybe your elbows were maybe not fully extended, but the weight traveled to that position quickly and smoothly in one motion. May have been passed.

I've been doing a few power jerks lately and feel like when I get to about 110 -115 that I need to catch lower because I doubt that beyond that I wouldn't be able to get the bar to travel higher. If the weight pushed me down, there's no chance I'd be able to catch it and recover. lol

I think you're being harsh with yourself on those power jerks mate. They look really good. Have you every been pushed into a squat jerk yet?

Routine as f**k mate.
Training is going really well at the minute. Looking good for the mini comp.


Here here. Making those the cleans look super easy, really strong looking.

Thanks lads.

Training is basically on maintenance for another week I think. Literally have no time or I'm not able to get to a gym most days. Its one of those situations where work and life throws you a bunch of curve balls.

Hate how it makes me stiffen up and feel my age though (if you're reading this Littler - NO! Don't even think about it Happy). Think I'm like you Youngy, I need to do something every day to feel OK. I do stretch my hips out and that but it needs to be more than stretching really. Makes everything feel slow and heavy.

Anyway, big session planned tomorrow.

Today really showed the holes in my squat, based on my other numbers I should have had 175-180 I think, but I just can't get my strength into the bar. So many issues with my squat (technical and pain related) I don't yet know where to begin, but begin I shall! Grin


I can relate to this. I really struggle with squatting these days and like you, some of this is due to my poor structure and indeed bloody pain, which creates all sorts of issues that affect the lift.

Curious. Do you think you pain is due to current injury or a previous? My issues are chronic and its likely that some of the pain I experience is not actual tissue injury itself (right hip) but is instead due to a neurotag of some description. I also get wicked neural tightness too. One thing that is helping me is doing really low-level stuff and trying to create relaxation as I move into the painful ranges. So, I've been working on my squat in a very slow, controlled and relaxed manner trying to create movement patterns without pain nociception and it does seem to really help. I do this stuff when not lifting or whenever I get 5-10 mins.

LOL @ you bunch of nutters.

Oh man, so glad its the weekend. Worked an open day yesterday and was basically on my feet from about 9-4 without sitting down, so my hip and back were angry today. Anyway, did what I needed to do.

Squats
60 x 3
100 x 3
120 x 2
132.5 x 1
142.5 x 1
152.5 x 1
147 x 5
140 x 5

Snatch from blocks (mid thigh)
40 x 3
50 x 3
60 x 3
70 x 2
80 x 2
85 x 2 x 2
80 x 2 x 3

Cleans
60 x 2
80 x 2
90 x 1
100 x 1
105 x 1
110 x 1
115 x 1
110 x 2 x 2
105 x 2 x 3

Jerk Dips
90 x 5
130 x 5
150 x 5
170 x 5
180 x 5

Power Jerk
60 x 2
80 x 2
90 x 2
100 x 1
105 x 1
110 x 1
112.5 x 1 (chinned myself too - whatta c***t)
115 x miss x 3(pb attempt)

Started off a bit s**tty but it got better. The squats felt a bit rough and like the brakes were on during the eccentric and the snatches from blocks were pretty standard for me really, hoping for a technique breakthrough on these. First rep of the heaviest sets are always really spazy and I seem to just flail and flop all out of position, but the second rep is always ace. Anyway, cleans felt great and the 115 was really easy. Nearly caught one of the power jerks at 115 (2nd rep) but the weight pushed me into a half squat and I couldn't quite hold it. Think that 110 - 112.5 is about the point where I stop push jerking and have to start getting under. Is a work in progress.

s**t that didn't take long. That snatch was bloody awesome wasn't it?. Such a big, big pull.

My hats off to you mate. I simultaneously hate and man-crush you all at once.

So many confused emotions.

Confused

Lol, this is so true. Moderation is for fannies though, so yes, anything other than perfection is s**t

OwenL said:exact same boat as you with work mate! Looks like you got some good work in though! Well done Happy


Cheers mate, but to be fair what may look reasonable on paper was proper s**t in real life. lol. I don't get how that happens sometimes? Monday was quite possibly one of the best sessions I've had in ages. Today was just ugly.

little_a said:The dialogue you use to describe training is ace Dave. Makes your log an interesting read and cracks me up. Not Savage entertaining mind, but always worth a look Wink


Ha, cheers mate. F*****g hell though, the goal should be to document mint lifting. Maybe I should give boxing a whirl?

Wednesday i squatted 132.5 for 5 x 5 and did a bunch of stuff that would probably make little_a question my sexuality.

Today I had a session that also made me do the same.

Front Squats
60 x 3
90 x 3
110 x 2
120 x 1
130 x 1
140 x 1

132.5 x 3
127.5 x 3
122.5 x 3

Snatch Pull + Low Hang Snatch from Deficit
40 x 1+1
50 x 1+1
60 x 1+1
70 x 1+1
80 x 1+1
85 x miss x 2
85 x 1 + 1
80 x 1 + 2 x 2 (all monged)

Deficit Cleans
60 x 2
80 x 2
90 x 1
100 x 1
105 x 1
110 x miss
110 x 1
107.5 x 2 x 2 (these were disgusting and s**t)
102.5 x 3 x 2

Power Jerk
60 x 2
80 x 2
90 x 2
97.5 x 2
102.5 x 2 x 4

My god that was awful. Not sure if its because I have a ton of work stress going and I was mentally knackered before I got to gym or what but this was really s**t and I couldn't seem to do anything right. From the first set of front squats I wanted to f**k it off. This was one of those sessions where I sat back when I finished and asked myself why am I doing this? Not one of the weights was hard or heavy but everything I did was completely moronic.

Anyway, work is mega busy and so my schedule is a little off so some days (like Wednesday) I am doing what I can given time constraints.

Arse!

Push press was insania. It had that much leg drive it couldn't be called a press.
