Very happy with the hang power cleans. Haven't done them in a loooooong time and my form was pretty solid (imo!!). Have vids of them too.... Mods, can hang power cleans be used instead of full power cleans from the floor for the comp?

Nice fun session today!!

The shoulder warm up is really nicely. Definitely recommended. I could really feel all my itty bitty shoulder area muscles working

Decided I wanna do a little bit of cleaning over the next while... not gonna do a huge amount but since I'm cutting down my 5/3/1 days to 3x a week I should be ok recovery wise.

Military's were alright. I don't like em, not gonna lie. Just gotta be done I suppose!!

The one arm presses were cool. Sickened by the crappness of the weight tbh.

My close grip bench was up a bit this week... could probably have got sets of 10's but I'll leave that til next week.

The chins were sweet. Was getting chest to bar on some reps.... gonna keep working on them and hopefully use a big plate. I wasn't hitting full extension on my first set, so worked on getting a full hang as I went on.

The woodchoppers were technically opposite ones, going from low to high. Not sure how much I like them, but combined with the russian twists I got some nice rotational work done today.

The rest of the workout was jst random fun stuff.... musta spent almost 3.5 hours in the gym today!!

Nice little workout today. Still LOVING the Diesel Crew warm up and the pull ups felt good too.

Hang Power Snatchs went ok. Form's still pretty ropey, especially on the second set w/ 60kg but I think I should be able to tweak it as I go.

Gritted my teeth and got some on the DL's today. Still not at PR levels but an improvement on wave one where I only did 200kg x6 and 210kg x3.

SLDL's were nasty. I'll add a 5th set next week.

The super set was to flush out my back a bit, it's feeling a bit off. Gonna do some stretching and rolling over the next few days and hope it comes around before squatting next Monday.

5/3/1 - Wave 2 - "3" day

Diesel Crew Shoulder Warm Up:
3kg 'bells - 4 reps per exercise this time (had been 3)

Pull Ups:
bodyweight 2x5

Bench:
60kg 2x5
80kg x3
97.5kg x3
112.5kg x3
127.5kg x6

Lucy Press:
60kg x5
85kg 3x12

Dips:
bodyweight +7.5kg 4x12, 1x11.5 - grrrrr!!!

Pull Ups w/1 minute rest between sets:
bodyweight +5kg 17x3 (51 total reps)

Face Pulls:
plate 52.5 x12
plate 60 x12
plate 67.5 2x12

*super setted with*

One Arm Barbell Curls:
22kg 4x5

Pretty happy with today!!

My bench is actually starting to come back around. 127.5kg x6 isn't gonna set the world on fire, but it's getting close to PR levels of 135kg x5. 135kg goes on the bar for my "1" day next week, so if I can get that for 4 I'll only be 5kg off my PR which I'll take for this cycle!

Made an arse of the exercise order, shoulda done dips before Lucy Presses but I managed to get thru both of them ok anyway.

Decided I wanted to do some weighted chins today, and tbh I was wrecked by then so I wasn't gonna be capable of loads of reps in a set. Decided to just bump up the volume and shoot for 50 total reps across 3 rep sets. It took about 22 minutes in total. I'll cut the rest down 10 seconds next week and try to get 20 total sets for 60 reps in the same time.

The face pull/one arm curl super set was really rough. I had a think about my training, and my bench is always it's springiest/best pop off my chest when I'm doing loads of upper back work. This has dropped off a bit recently, and I think it's because my direct upper back work volume has done down drastically.

The one arm curls are very very hard. I was struggling to pop out 5 reps on my left arm. The right was ok tho.... Give em a try, they make your biceps work like nothing I've done before!

Yea CAP2 aswell. Pain in the hole really but it's the second last hurdle to get over until freedom. So close! I had hoped to get into the gym and throw on a few kilos of bodyweight during study leave but alas I failed. Definitely going to give it a stab come July though. God knows I'v been lurking around this forum long enough hah

Good luck with the exams

Man study leave's not the time to be doing anything. Even tho I've more time off I'm not training as well as I have been. Totally got kicked out of my routine and even tho I'm not studying 24/7 it seems to be taking a lot out of me.

The exams will be fun... Just finished the Chartered Grind School SFMA grinds in NCI today. They were a big benefit. The guy reckon Company valuations, interest and currency risk, performance appraisal and decision making were key areas. Co. Val's has been on all the sample papers and the mock, and since there's only really 4 ways to calculate it ther's the possibility to pick up a good percentage of the marks in a short Q. Seems like the paper's gonna be approx 50/50 theory and computations too

That and Audit are my two dodge papers...

Best of luck with them too!!
