herman said:He doesn't just sit on his arse during time off, he is allowed to run, row, swim and that sort of thing. What do you mean when you say 'allowed'? From what I gathered the national team coaches never wanted him to take time off and he had to fight for it. | |||

Simeon said: I reckon he must train like an absolute animal when he's preparing for a comp. A whole year off, and considering how hyper he seems to be... What I find really interesting is that he doesn't even need to squat to maxes. He only needs to squat 'enough', which for him apparently is 280 front or back. It seems really weird for people to try and adopt training systems like his, mainly because he probably has put in a lot closer to 10,000 hours than any amateur ever will. | |||

shanejer said:A year off ?! Wow I'd go nuts Seems to work for him, he's undefeated as far as we know. Apart from that his training apparently peaks at Snatching and Jerking every day, as well as squatting 2x a day, so I guess a little time off helps him recovery physically, mentally, and his longevity. | |||

From what Ilya said he has taken off since London and will only start training for the 2014 Worlds in the new year. He does this a lot. He took a whole year or more off after Beijing as well. Would be fun to see Klokov do Crossfit, but since he apparently plans to compete in Rio...who knows. | |||

21-12-13 RSR Week 5 Day 3 Clean and Jerk up to 2x1 @ 110kg For jokes. Better than I thought it would be. Cleans were meh, jerks were better. Not bad for 79kg and very little proper weightlifting in the past few months. Squat up to 6x2 @ 120kg Snatch Pulls 5x3 @ 80kg Just making sure I go straight up and smooth. Curls 3x10 @ 20kg Abs | |||

What issues do you think there are with your squat? | |||

Simeon said:Bench – 110x6,6,6 easier than expected actually. Was going in thinking of doing 3 sets of 5, so this is a good starting point Incline Dumbbell – 45s x2, 30s x11,10,10,10 Meant to do a triple, but someone made me laugh on my third rep :s Pulldowns – 4x10 You're still benching? Eugh. How about squat? What are you doing there for the next few weeks? | |||

Simeon said: If he doesnt squat 160 I'm gonna drop a dumbbell on his face. I'm gonna get it, don't worry. I'm just really chill before the sessions and the heavy sets. Don't think about it, and it works. The whole thing has been really good. 6 sets was just too much to psych yourself up each time so staying calm is the only option. | |||

CJR said:Strong power snatchings! What do you find the muscle snatches help with? Keeping the bar close? Never tried them. Thanks! I feel like muscle snatches just help me to keep pulling and develop some strength in the upper back and shoulders. 18-12-13 RSR Week 5 Day 2 Squat up to 3x3 @ 142.5kg!!!! 2.5kg on my previous best triple for THREE sets. OHP up to 5 @ 50, 55, 60, 62.5, 50 Pretty sure this is a PB Dips 3x6 @ 20kg Face pulls 3x12 @ 45kg Abs and stuff | |||
