DomRedshaw said:good point mate its not like i failed a weight i shud be able to do comfortably, iv only done 115 once n it was a real grinder. think with last week log going so well i had high expectations is all. more annoyed i cud of rested my shoulders. on the bright side its been a bit of a wake up call for me to rest n program my training so i build up to heavy sessions instead of going heavy every session every week til i have a crap day Balance deffinately makes a huge difference, i know im gunna have a decent log session when i feel stable. I also agree with going too heavy all the time, i usually do well for about 6 weeks and after that i feel like crap, but i keep trying to go heavy instead of dropping the weight for a few weeks like i know i should. | |||

unit94 said: I think he's stronger on the log than a bar. Ah right. I wonder which way round it is for mike jenkins, 180x5 strict log would be mental. | |||

30th May Axle Overhead (powercleaned) Warm-up with DB's first. Then 65kgx5 75kgx3 85kgx3 95kgx5 100kg2x5 Bench 60kgx5 CG 80kgx5 CG 100kgx2 CG 120kgx1 CG 120kgx1 125kgx1 130kgx1 130kgx1 paused Last set was the best, felt like I could of managed 140 on this set. DB upright rows SS with Shrugs 3x10 each Strict log 70kg 4x3 Pretty pleased with todays workout, had 2 days to recover since the last workout and ate more on those days as I was struggling to recover, calories where lowered again today though. Today was the 2nd time I have properly trained on the axle. I failed the 100 clean about 3 times, fell over on the first attempt lol. On the sets that I managed to clean 100 the pressing was easy, probably could of pressed 120+ but 100 was my limit today on the cleans. Once I get used to training with the axle my clean should get better, avoiding belt cleans for now. | |||

Post Edited: 27.05.2013 @ 18:08 PM by DeanW92 Tom_Martin said: My current "max" (most I've done all year) is 220. I suspect I'm good for more, but think 200 is probably more like 85-88% at the moment. However, that's all nonsense because it changes every day when you train like this. It's just about how the rep feels...that particular rep felt like "if you do another one it'll probably be pretty tough and then you'll be s**t tomorrow". Right that makes sense. Thanks alot for the advice. Will give this a go soon. | |||

Post Edited: 27.05.2013 @ 17:59 PM by DeanW92 Tom_Martin said: Regarding too heavy and form etc, take for example the 3rd rep of my 200kg set from today, that's about as difficult as I will allow it to get. Right ok, I can sort of see what you mean but a little difficult to put into perspective when I know you have done 280 before and so 200 is like 75% of that but of course your working on improving technique and your max now would be lower. I guess il just have to go by feel. | |||

Tom_Martin said: It takes a long time...I would start by adding 2 light squat sessions in, alongside the session you currently do. Then start to gradually make one of them heavier, until it is a similar intensity to the other heavy day. Then add another light session in, get used to it, then another light session. Make that one gradually get heavier and then you have 3 heavy and 2 light sessions a week I think. Then add another light one...etc etc...Just ease into it. Ah right thats the answer I was looking for, im guessing the "heavy day" you should still avoid going too heavy. So by that I mean avoid form breaking down too much and having to get amped up and using agression etc. Thanks Tom |
