Squatz
I seem to be flexible enough now to get a little bounce which is cool.

Yeah what is with the 'bounce' with O lifting? I ain't so bouncy.

Utilising stretch reflex, makes the recovery easier.

You can double that. And add a slightly fuzzy head from a couple of beers with the aforementioned steak. Nothing related to a hangover, but i can't remember the last time i trained after any amount of beers, so i suppose a couple of bottles affects me more than it would most.

itsallaboutheL · 30-04-2011 11:10pm

I am in dire need of a decent front squat.

Molly · 01-05-2011 4:09am

Hows your hamstring flexibility? I've basically been told mines a disgrace and need to sort it out before anything else. Needless to say that's a kick in the face.

Random question... He can squat to depth and pull a good DL, I'd say he's alright.

Molly · 01-05-2011 1:39pm

Didn't think it was that random, I can squat to a decent depth and have an okay deadlift also but have awful hamstring flexibility. I just incorrectly assumed non Olympic lifting and a lack of flexibility went hand in hand when it's probably more of an individual thing based on how you look after yourself

I agree on it being an individual thing.

Scuba Ste · 01-05-2011 2:42pm

You probably know already but going for maxes regularly isn't the best approach if you want to get better at OL, particularly if your missing lifts a lot.

Now you lift a lot more than I do, so ignore at will.

I will though that's the thing.

Scuba Ste · 01-05-2011 3:05pm

I know it's nice to get big numbers and you'll probably snatch 100+ sooner rather than later but the more you snatch 90%+ and miss the more you reinforce poor technique.

Nothing wrong with max attempts just not so often.

Of course this means your now going to snatch 100 next time and make me the retard.

Stupid O'Clock

Snatch
bar x many
40kg x many
50kg x 2
60kg 2 x 2
65kg x 2
70kg x 2

Realised i had no hope of doing a full session and getting to class without going all Marty McFly on it so i did some Powercleans, called it and went for breakfast.

PM

Snatch
Nothing was working right, failed pretty much every double i tried on the way up.

Was given a few options one of which was man up. So went off for ten minutes.

60kg x 2
65kg x 2
70kg 3 x 2
75kg 2 x 2 (ie.5 consecutive doubles, i dont care what weight it was, i was happy to get them)

Clean and jerk
40kg x 2 (one jerk for all)
50kg x 2
60kg x 2
70kg x 1
80kg x 1

90kg (2 cleans/two front squats/one jerk) x 3

100kg (2 cleans/one front squat/one jerk) x 3 (didn't get under two of the jerks)

Was really paying for that 20rep 90kg clean thing the other day, made standing up look awful hard. Embarrassing.

Squat
3 x 5 (at a weight i benched in a previous life :pac:)

CGBP
125 x handy ish single

I can't believe i finished that given how tired i was.

Also.

99.8kg hahahahahahaha
