| http://www.pullum-sports.co.uk/clothing-and-shoes/shoes/do-win... i got last years version of these i love them, they have a nice wide fitting, the addidas ones are quite narrow apparently. my mate luke (luuuuuuukey) has these he likes them, bit higher heel than addidas. good for the money. | |||

| the heel helps with squats, cleans and snatches and the general solidity and stability helps with everything else. | |||

Next time ill have to get some reps in on 90 and get my form dialed Strict 90x1 Solid enough 80x4 Lockout a problem, shoots to forehead then slows right down CGBP Paused 60x5 100x5,5,5,5 Deadlift 60x5 100x5 140x3 Belt on 180x15 Straps on here. OUCH! Hammies killed after these and felt really sick. Last rep i took off my belt and straps and just did it, SUPER slow lockout real fight Chins Wide x6,5 Narrow x6,6 Just smoked by this stage and trying not to throw up. 180 x 15??? thats sickening! well done mate, thats bloody impressive stuff! | |||

just_t said:it definately is! (probally) i might try some of those powercleans from the hang on my next sesh. they are fun yeah i really like them, the way ive found best its to just jump with the bar and concentrate on stomping my feet as the bar racks on my shoulders, everything else sort of falls into place........plus stomping in loud weightlifting shoes is fun  | |||

| some olympic variants today POWER SNATCH bar x 10 40k x 3,3,3 45k x 3,3,3 HANG POWER CLEAN (HIGH HANG) 40k x 5 50k x 5 60k x 5 70k x 1 75k x 1 (pb) 80k x 1 (pb) i like the power clean from the high hang, as you don't have much "run up" they really help build explosiveness......if thats a word. | |||

40_plus said:I'm happy with training at the moment mate although my weight is higher than I'd like. I'm doing singles on squats tonight and trying for 5 x 1 with 170 which is my comp PB. The hamstrings have healed almost fully and I'm able to deadlift with some decent weight again, next singles session is 5 x 1 at 205 which is only 5 kg off my comp PB. thats great, very impressive! hopefully i will catch you up one day! | |||
