Considering I got couched again this weekend not too bad. I had planned body rows as well but my lats were lighting up during the clean pulls and then trying to hold on to RDLs so I left them.

Wrist is slightly improved so all going well I'll start back with the lifts on Monday.

Yeah well just make sure we, who peruse your log, don't have to hear Ms Supp say 'I told you so' for the next few months, please.

Slightly less miserable today because of the squat pb. Though it's purely because I did them first and wasn't pre-fatigued from all the fun weightlifting stuff I can't do currently

GHRs are getting better as well though I'll stick with that band until I've built up some decent volume with it before moving down.

I also got my wrist x-ray'd today. There may or may not be a bone out of place or some such. Some weirdness on the xray and they couldn't tell right away so they have to get a radiologist to look at it and get back to me tommorrow. I've been given a splint to wear until I hear back incase there is something wrong.

Weekend

Surfing*

Regularly learn and play new sports. brah.

I either ate or drank something dodgy there on Saturday night and was up all night wretchedly sick. I didn't eat for about 36 hours then until now. I'll probably still attempt to train later though.

NOPE!

It was ambitious to try train today in the end. I had planned on going to 105kg but I started feeling sick from 80kg.

On the positive side there's nothing bone wise wrong with my wrist and it's actually improved a lot since Friday. I managed a spot of empty bar work after sitting down for 30 minutes after the squats. The plan now is to keep up the ice, vitamin-I for another week then strap up on Monday and attempt openers for Leinsters* If I can manage to do that I'll do the comp.

Golf club isn't my style. I'm more likely to gloat that my snatch is bigger than yours when you're too injured to lift

Box Jerks
Up to a few doubles @ 60kg

I wasn't up to much tonight either still run down after the weekend. I wrapped up the wrist and tried it out a bit. Brain is still cautious so I caught the snatches maintaining hook and taking the weight in the fleshy area between thumb and index finger. I don't think this will work at heavy weights. The jerks started to pinch so I stopped.

I'm off again for the weekend so not training again until Monday. Which will be openers night. It's still up in the air whether wrist will manage the weights. Probably manage a snatch but not sure about C&J.

Frogdog

Believe in yourself! You can do it champ!

I keep the hook the whole time, releasing it does bad things to my wrists.

Monday 2nd June

Testing openers on my dodge wrist

Split Snatch
up to 75kg for two singles

Powerclean & Jerk
up to 95kg, took two attempts

Back Squat
up to 115kg

My wrist started getting pissy around 65kg on the snatch but I continued anyway it wasn't a STOP RIGHT NOW pain. It was heavily wrapped so I wasn't going into full extension. Once I finished lifting it wasn't too bad and doesn't feel much worse now than it did before I lifted.

Anyway happy enough with the numbers given the lack of training and quantity of boozing as of late. Strength is down a bit alright since nationals but I'm getting under the split snatches better than I was then so I still might weasel a PB there. Unlikely on C&J.

Wednesday 4th June

Good God. I thought my right glute and upper hamstring were gonna tear off tonight. A few 'heavy' snatches has given me rhabdo of the ass. I'm so de conditioned at the moment.

Split Snatch
Up to a few singles @ 50kg didn't go heavier because^^

Powerclean & Jerk
up to one single @ 80kg

Hmm. I don't know what the plan for Saturday is. I'm gonna put down low openers and see how the warmup goes since I could lift reasonably well or very very sh*t. Hard to know. Probably the second one.

Comp review is pretty much this. I felt weak in the warmups so took 70kg opener on snatch instead of planned bump to 75kg but I've got the split snatch down now and I'm getting under the bar properly so managed the 80kg even though it felt really heavy.

Clean and jerks didn't go so well though with the strength levels down. Ah well. Not too bothered though happy with the snatch and finally getting that bloody 80kg that has been eluding me for ages.

My wrist should be 100% better by the time I start training again in a weeks time. I'll just have to wrap it for lifting for a month or two. I'm expecting to hit 85kg on the snatch very soon once I get back training properly and get strength levels back up and over what they were before the wrist injury. If I don't get it by Cork in October I'm giving up. Splitty split clean should be ready for Cork also and I'll have completed my full transformation to hipster smug lifter.

Monday 16th July

I was getting fat and losing my muscles last week with too much schnitzel, currywurst and numerous forms of alcoholic beverages so no training until now.

Powerclean

Back Squat

Operation 'don't die from doms once proper training recommences' in effect. Doesn't have much ring to it but that'll be the jist of this weeks and possible next weeks programming.

Cork is 14 weeks away. Wayne says we'll either do a 10 or 12 week program for that with 4 days a week if I want it. I'll probably go for 4 days because I'm sick of drinking at this stage. Now I can train properly again after wrist strain I'm motivated to put the effort in again and stop dicking about.
