Clean and jerk: 90-95-101(fx2)-90-96-100(fx2)
failed the clean on the 101 and the jerk on the 100s

don't think I've ever jerked 96 after a full clean so that's almost kind of a pb.

3 position catch cleans (above parallel, at parallel and rock bottom) 60kg x3 sets

*enter bastarding headache*

squats 99-90

pulldowns
kurls
think I prefer the bar for curls rather than dumbbells

idiotic commuter race on one of the climbs back home. lungs are in ribbons.

impossible to resist

It's a disease! I can restrain myself a little in the morning, but it's war in the evenings!

GASMANN

the worst is when you've a proper amount of ground to make up on your prey. by the time you pass them your bollixed but if you take your foot off the gas they'll burn you right back. a vicious circle.

Edwardius

Tell me about it, the bastards always seem to speed up at least 5kph when you get past. Lungs still aren't right!

Edwardius

felt like death again (poor coffee timing), nearly blacked out under a 20kg bar (!)

snatch: missed 75 behind, then got it, 80 was easy, missed 85 behind, missed 88 twice (basically pulled it and turned into a wet fish), got 85 on the way back. think I went for 88 again but it was nowhere close. 85 is good for a bad day :P.

squats: 103, 93

DB bench: 20s 3x15, will stay with that weight till it feels easier

split squats (no foot elevated, something something.. revolutionary... something) 3x10 a side with all of thirty kilograms

2 scoops unflavoured whey, a load of cream, pint of milk, half a teaspoon of cinnamon. This was good.

Don't really like the idea of training tomorrow. Avoided a commuter race because the other ****er was breaking red lights and I've given up on that like a good little obedient citizen (I get to rest more this way and don't fancy giving the coppers €200)

Edwardius

clean and jerk: 95kg, failed the waterloo again (bleh)
squats: 107, 97
kurlz, pulldowns, inverted rows.

Later: push 400cc sportsbike for 500m when it stalled and the battery died. Probably reduced chances of death significantly. Terrifying thing. I want one.

Edwardius

erm....
snatch: 2 doubles at 70kg. Every lift I did today looked different. missed a ****load, dropped one on my ass

Squatulus:
99-90

I kept dropping things, everything, collars, weights, no coordination. Stupid organism.

pulls: 3x3x90
Death.

Don't think I did anything else. Neck is moderately Tokened. I'm a seriously delicate flower if my nervous system is ****ed from last week. I'll assume the universe was outta whack and everything will be fine tomorrow.... right?

Edwardius

Erm, 81.97kg. Supra-iliac is like 10mm from about 20 in late December (at 88 or so). This is probably good. I've another two weeks at a high level of paleotardation. Started to look like I've gotten on the wrong end of the Reich. Anyway:

OHS , 40x10, 50x10 (I'm doing these to spite yesterday's Ed, bastard owes me money.)

Clean and jerked up to 80 for 5 doubles. Hit my chin again on the second (you don't only do this once, that was a lie) bit me lip. On the third set of jerks I was landing my right foot further left than my left. They cleared up after that.

squats: 103, 93. boring.

a bunch of snatch things, ended up doing some of those no hands-no feet things. They're all quiet. Feels like I'm sneaking up on something.

Not bothered with anything else. Food please.

Edit: later that day...

lunges, 10 per leg with 30kg super'd with 15 pushups with a few mins rest. Might throw in some inverted rows next time I do that, although next thing you know I'll be wearing brightly coloured runners and falling under police cars :P)

Feckin weightloss all over the gaff.
I'm down to 97.sommat through my patented "I cant afford Lunch most days" Diet.

Edwardius

Also since Token has stopped bringing up his lunch every day he's one of the few who isn't losin weight. Imma start abusing him for being fat soon.

I actually thought it was true because someone said to me before he sold me some magic beans. It's a useful thing to tell yourself, depending how you view the idea of usefulness. Usefullness and healthy teeth are mutually exclusive.

The world has gone mad. I'll outweigh Damien soon and you too you skinny f*ck if you keep up this manorexia. Next thing you know L will be lifting in the 85's and doing metcons.

My 'like' above is for this comment not your paleotardation. Just so we are clear.

Edwardius

Yeah right you big nazi.

Edwardius

Warmup: raises and the like. OHS: 10x(20-40-50-55)


"no hands no feet": some pretty things up to 60kg

Snatch:
5 doubles 70kg. These kinda clunked into place towards the end

squats: 107-97, erm... I need to eat more, lost position a bit here due to wussing out of the groove

Well I guess the actual lesson I learned was to rack the damn bar properly before shooting it up to the sky. Oh yeah and to not spasm out your back so it takes months before you can actually jerk off again, that's another helpful tip.

Edwardius

I can never remember what I do differently when I wallop my chin. Same with my patented "headbutting snatches". Probably something to do with angering various gods

It's because you didn't make my dinner.

Edwardius

squats 111, 100

clean and jerk 80 for a double. 81 for four doubles

Loadin for 6 hours.

Edwardius

Right, I'm gonna do the dublin open and I'm gonna open at 90/101. Not bothered if I bomb out because I'm kinda training for later in the year. No point in wandering in and doing 85/98 or something. I'm also gonna do a full week's training this week and not taper so the comp doesn't really get in the way.

I think you are gonna have to perform minimum one sacrifice to pull this off. Y'all be crazy.

I dunno man, worst thing thing that can happen is I'll miss six lifts. It's not like I'll burst into flames or anything. I'm not really bothered just totalling, I've done that enough at this stage so I'm going to do as our great lord and saviour suggested and "be stupid for me" . I'll get more experience under intimidating weights and will probably enjoy myself a bit more this way.

Lets go have an artistic petrol fight in the local Topaz afterwards!

Spending a lot of time on being **** at two ways of lifting weight overhead might be the cause of that!

Edwardius

It's far too late for that. I blame L for all of this.

Edwardius

****ed all week with the flu, left with a bastard cough now and the lungs are hangin off me. Probably won't get to train next week now due to catching up with work. D'oh!

No comp ?

Always next time ED still I wanted to see if the opening at 90 strategy was as succesful as the make your first snatch but drop it before the buzzer approach

Hahahahaha, man that was heartbreaking! I'll open high at the seniors instead. If I can train well up until then, 90kg should be a little more certain.

Edwardius

Not too bad today, took the long way home on the bike (25km) to test out SPD pedals, good evenin for it, lovely view from the coast road.

Gonna attempt to lift weights tomorrow

Edwardius

Erm, wasn't gonna lift but found myself in the company of a bar and plates. Power snatched up to 70 for a token pb (was in jeans and chucks too). I can still do muscleups on rings, did a metcon too, 21-15-9 24kg kb snatches and 25" jumps (5.20 or something). Back trainin properly tomorrow if work doesn't eat my day.

Did great leader appear to you on completion of the sacred rep scheme 21-15-9?

Edwardius

Not only that, the skies opened, the clouds parted and a heavenly and inebriated voice told me to "What a 4-minute mile implies is that you've whittled away enough body mass that you're no longer strong by anyone's estimation. And by the point that you can do a 900-pound back squat—brother, you even walk funny. And to see you run is laughable."

trainink:
snatch: 3 doubles 70kg, one miss at the start (laziness). Second reps tended to be a bit shoddy here. Recovery is a lot better than before.

squats:
100-90 (Was wondering how badly the two weeks off would affect these, turns out "very badly")

split squats: 3x10 with 30kg.

Could be worse but not massively happy with today. If I get sick again I'll try to do something, even a few split squats or light squats in the apartment, although there was nothing I could do last week as it was the actual ****ing flu.

**** it, at least I'm not in syria or somewhere.

That sounds a bit too positive sunshine, where's the emo?

Edwardius

busy!
managed to do some training.

snatched 80, missed 85 once and left it. missed 70 a million times because I was trying some things. They didn't work
squats. 3x5x90

Guess I've just had a layoff. **** it.

Edit: X-rated fun time with hockey ball (Brobility). some nasty stuff going on.

split squats the followin' morning

Edwardius

Clean and jerk (doubles on the jerk)
80-85-88
clean was rough but I haven't done any in ages.

frontal squats 80x3x3

3 position catch cleans (working on retardation :P) 3 sets 60kg

Edwardius

Still alive. Work deadlines mean I can't train during the day, not being arsed means I can't train at night! Did some pressing, split squats but nothing mad.
Pulled a mercedes SUV thing 100m on a track in order to lend more suffering to Steve Kinsella's 100 days of charity.
First 20m wasn't too bad, then it went a bit arse-shaped. got to the end and the hamstrings couldn't hold me in a standing position and I had to wait ten minutes before it became evident that I wouldn't get sick. Dunno how he does stuff like that every day. Serious respect.

What you need is "someone" to support you so you don't have to work, and just train;)
