meant to go to the gym on monday but got up late, was working today, shall go tomorow

bjj:90 minutes
first time rolling in a GI.

submitted a blue belt for the first time, but he got me twice before.

alot more frustrating with the gi, i was rolling with someone with way more experience in one aswell so he could control the crap out of me

cardio,shoot me

My ****ing god its hot ,

Deadlifts
warm ups , worked up to 100 x 5 i think
140 x 3 beltless hook grip
160 x 1 belted mix grip
180 x 5 boom last rep may or may not have locked out, grip was going.
190 x 2 same as above, BOOOOM
160 x 3 beltless hook grip for the first two, easy mix for the last

next week one up on the last 3 sets, hopefully

Sqwaaaaaaaaaats
80 x 3
100 x 1
120 x 1 high bar and low bar
next time i do low bar im gonna have to use a thumb in grip, bar keeps rolling up.

Power cleans.
bar x 10
40 x 10, one of the reps when i was dropping it back to my hips, the bar whacked off my jaw, felt like an idiot
60 x a gazzillion, moved up to 70 when the last rep i did felt incredible, just got a real good pop
70 x 3 too heavy to get as good form as i wanted
60 x a few, in hindsight i should have stayed at 60 after the good rep to repeat what i did, but meh i didnt.

Neck work on mats upstairs, 10 minutes.


i had to rechalk after nearly every deadlift rep, just couldnt hack the heat.

Definitely hit up IP, the guys are quite nice up there and you're guaranteed at least two matches I think. I'm away for the IP one but I'll be home on the 29th, who's running that? My ever so quick search on teh webz turned up nothing.

cardio,shoot me

i know lol, no idea what happened with the top set so then i just got bored and worked on beltless stuff.

i want to get my hook grip good enough to use on max efforts because i can use a narrower grip .
with mixed grip my elbow hits my knees.

total mullet session really

cardio,shoot me

ju jitsu, went last 3 nights, took tonight off.

got some good subs in last night, first time ive really focused on going for chokes, got some guillotines and an arm triangle again.

reason i took tonight off was we were practising takedowns, and one of them was a clinch style slam, and the guy slipped as he was picking me up and i landed on my right foot a bit hard, hurt my knee. see how it is tomorow.

Today
back and bi

lat pull down.
3 sets 15-18 reps a set, started at 82.5kg plate, then 75kg plate, then 67.5kg plate. focusing on the squeeze more than actual weight

barbell rows
worked up to 80 x 5
after a drop set of 60

dumbell rows.
37.5kg dumbells x 7 was the top set

hammer strength unilateral front pulldown. no idea what its called
lot of sets.

forgot chuck rows which was probably the main reason i went up lol

the drifter

if you ever call a session back and bi again there will be action taken :P

have ye been thought break falls yet?

Jesus i have no time, ive been in my house for around 2 hours in the last week, (excluding sleep) went to an mma class the other night, good fun, worked on kicks and punches(obviously) and using strikes to set up takedowns.

Went for a 4 hour mtb ride on my new bike last night, **** me its heavy, great for drops tho.

went to the gym yesterday afternoon, did alot of military pressing volume,
4 sets at 50 for around 7-10 reps per set id say

then some upper back work.

may train tommorow if i have the time. do a leg sesh.

new bike incase anyones mildy interested, different feel than my other bike, head angle is set up with less of a dirt jumping feel and way more forgiving on rebound.

yea pounds


sub tournament in IP this sat, looking forward to it, only found out 3 days ago that i was able to make it, should be good crack

cardio,shoot me

looking set to make weight. cut around 6 lbs over the last day and a bit, obviously water weight.

cant wait till tommorow, sub tournament, then a good friends 18th, great day!

wish me luck

cardio,shoot me

absolute bollox of a day....


weighed in on my home scales, which have been accurate for both pl meets i went to, at 100.4kg

got down to IP, weighed in, at 98kg, 1kg to go till the next division down... i was very pissed at this stage, considering i hadnt eaten in around 30 hours.

got some water in to me and watched the advanced fights, good crack, was in better spirits.

i was then told that the only two people in my division where both training partners of mine. so we decided to pull out and save the 30 quid. unfortunatly by the time we got to talk to barry about it the ultras had fought, as i would have liked to have moved up a div.

on the bright side though, i could barely walk going into the thing as i injured my knee(s) on friday in work, and further in training. to put it into perspective i wasnt going to shoot for a takedown, i was going to pull guard and hope for the best.
and sure ive got another at the end of the month!

Best of luck with the next competition, you'll get some great experience just going and watching these anyway - you'll know what to expect for the next one!
