And here's the much promised training vid... It's got my big lifts from May;

Snatch - 90kg, 95kg and the 98kg injury lift
Power Clean - 120kg x2
Front Squat - 165kg and 170kg

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OCt5ItMmNv8

Snatches looked silly easy man,

Quick question, Do you get anything from wrapping below the knees or is just a comfort thing? Tommy mentioned something about that the other day and I've been meaning to give it a try.

I've just moved down to bannow, co. wexford. Don't know the area well - does anyone know any gym that'd be close enough to me. One that does strongman training - & more to the point if you do - is it affordable... Any ideas

Well in comparison to my crappy 2.00 they are, I'm soo going to have to test my row again :pac:
Might see you out there in a week or 2 actually, Gill's going to go through the oly lifts with me.

I don't want to know anything more about 500m intervals tbh. I reckon I might be good for one all out 1minute 27second run.

They felt slick alright... to a point!! :mad:

Wrapping under the knee - no carryover.
Wrapping under the knee - nice feeling.

I'm convinced it helps keep your knee cap tracking properly. Definitely recommended over knee sleeves for heavier sets.

<<All the crazy we did last night...?>>

Weighted Decline Sit Ups:

<<Falling slowly...>>

3km Run: 14 minutes 19 seconds

Happy enough with that consdiering I never really run. Stupid exercise anyway.

Note to self - do not spend a cumlative time of 1.5 hours sitting in a car and 10 hours at a desk and then attempt to run without warming up or stretching. Took about 1km for my body to actually understand what it was being asked to do!!

Had a bit of a power day today... I'm on study leave for my FAE's now so I'm not in work. Was in the gym at 8.15am, had my squats done before 9!!

Shoulder held up ok with the pressing.... chest was still tight and DOM'd from Sunday's workout. Wanted to go 100 x6 and 110 x4 on the inclines but decided to hold back a little for my shoulders sake. I'll go 97.5 and 105 next week.

Might get out for some cardio later...

<<break>>

6 rounds of;
5 burpees on the minute and 5 thrusters w/ 60kg

I'm training for a run at Kalsu with Will Walshe of CFI and Transform on July 31st.

Today was the first time I've had any weight over head in 4-5 weeks, my shoudlers are weak as sh!t. Best fix that over the next few weeks if I wanna survive Kalsu.

Heh.. didn't realise there was a charity event for it. I just saw the idea on the CF board a while ago and it stuck with me as being an incredibly stupid and fun thing to try. Training for it now actually;

There's a "100 burpee challenge" on the CF board - basically you do 1 burpee on day 1, 2 on day 2 etc etc all the way to 98 on day 98, 99 on day 99 and 100 on day 100.

I was gonna do that, but I'll be away the second week of July so will need something to do training wise over there. So I'm ending the 100 burpee challenge then, started with 1, did 4 yesterday, 7 today etc etc which'll bring me up to 100 on the last day of the holiday. I'll go after the burpee mile a few days after I get back.

It'll also make the burpees involved in Kalsu an afterthought, which is gonna be amazing considering how horrific it'll be.

Why don't you just do 100 burpees today and spend the next 99 days reading the entire works of Shakespeare or learning to juggle?

I could drop and do the burpees right now and be back to you before 2.35pm. Done 100 in less than 8 minute. It's all about neural adaptation tho (bet you're NEVER think I'd compare Smolov to burpees?!?)

And I can already juggle. So there

Hanley · 09-06-2010 02:40PM

<<Tell me what I'm missing>>

Drainer of a workout.

Squats were grand. Gonna be a serious challenge to add 10kg next week.

Shoulder strength is seriously sh!t. Always has been. Not training upper body for like 4-5 weeks hasn't helped matters. Literally training them with the sole intention of getting them stronger so the thrusters during Kalsu are easier.

I'll add 2.5kg to everything next week, 5/10 to the HS press and hopefully maintain all the reps.

MetCon wasn't nice at all... again, thruster practice for Kalsu.

Haha did you subluxate your shoulder 5 weeks ago

And the burpee mile would be boring to watch tbh... I'll see if I can get someone to take a few pics etc of it tho.

Ummm you could, but you'd burn out after 2 rounds. 5 burpees + 5 thrusters is good starting point. Maybe go for 50 total thrusters w/ 5 burpees on the minute every minute.

I did somethin similar in january;

10 rounds for time;
10 thrustes w/ 45kg
5 burpees
TIME: 13 minutes 35 seconds

I just realised they wre only using 52.5kg/115lb in that vid.

Kalsu's supposed to be done with 60kg/135lb.

Wimps.

And cardio, of course I'll get it done. Could take all day, but it'll be done!

Inspector Coptoor · 09-06-2010 03:05PM
