    Ah Herr Smolov. That'll put balls on your hair.

    :(. I frankenstein'd it a bit to include front and paused front squats at the end of the week so it's not really Smolov anymore. I've to hit a 222 total @85 to qualify for next year's seniors, the only way this is gonna happen is with lots of squats, all the time.

    Yesterday pm
    Clean and jerk triples 82kg, hpc+j 80, shoulders. Rest today.


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 3,234 Mod ✭✭✭✭Edwardius


    Snatch positional stuff
    C&J Complex 75kg
    Clean pulls 105
    Front squat 7x5x103

    Feeling stronger but pretty tired. I'm already worried about the paused reps tomorrow.


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 3,234 Mod ✭✭✭✭Edwardius


    Jerks
    4x3 @ 86

    Sn+hang Sn 5x1+2 @ 75. (felt very light even though I felt like death)

    Paused Front squat:

    10x3@ 108kg

    Got folded on the last rep so took the set again. Eh, that was kinda unpleasant. I'm gonna do another week with +2% or so. gonna have to split all sessions and ingest fearsome amounts of caffeine. I think I can bleed some extra from it. I'll probably die though.


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 3,234 Mod ✭✭✭✭Edwardius


    Morning:
    Back squat 4x9 110kg

    Evening: snatch 77kg, 3x3
    Hps: 3x2 70kg, 1x5 for the lulz

    Chesticles.

    These were horrible and ugly as sin. paused the first three sets, missed the last of the 4th, did normal fronts from then, missed 1 in 7th and 10th set, took three singles at the end to make up for the misses. I'm now finished with the work phase of the squats, it was kinda fun in a sick way


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 3,234 Mod ✭✭✭✭Edwardius


    Not much time today.
    Snatch 3x3 78, 1x3 80
    Hps, 73kg 2,2,6
    Hang snatches were class.

    Will have more time tomorrow


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 3,234 Mod ✭✭✭✭Edwardius

    87-88-89-90 (token pb, colourin' outside the lines a bit)

    Triples on these suck the life out of me

    HPC+PJ
    3x2 85kg

    shoulders, lower back, upper prehab gheyness.

    Yesterday:

    Pause front:
    Up to 120 (5 kg pb), missed 122

    Rack jerk: 3x3 at 95, set of 4 at 100 (large pb). Blew the load on the last set so barely hit 110 on the singles.

    Snatch+2 hang snatch: 5 sets 80, jerks killed the pop on these. They went up though.

    Swole stuff

    Today:
    Clean, hang clean, jerk: 3 sets 77
    Deficit pause pulls, 3x3 112
    Some footwork
    Back squat up to 145 (pb) just missed 150
    Triceps and mid back stuff

    Wanted to start getting the feel of heavy singles. I think I can hit 150 next week. The Woman is going to be endangering my squat pbs soon so I'd better move them.


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 3,234 Mod ✭✭✭✭Edwardius


    Snatch, 5 doubles at 83, had to retake some. Singles to 94, missed 97

    Consistency was a bit crap here

    Hps: 3x2 75

    Back squat singles:
    120-130-140-150(pb)

    Squat was hard. It's almost not embarrassing anymore.

    Was tired after that.


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 3,234 Mod ✭✭✭✭Edwardius

    Clean and jerk 4 doubles 90
    hpc pj 3 doubles 85

    Pause clean pulls 115
    Tried to sneak up on 110 power clean. Not today.

    Gonna try to do Swole stuff tomorrow. Heavy fronts on Friday. Shooting for 125

  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 3,234 Mod ✭✭✭✭Edwardius


    triples on the jerk at 97, single 112, missed 117,

    snatch complex 82,

    front squats to 125 (pb), missed 130 twice, jammed the elbow onto the knee somehow, think I might have gotten away with it, strapped wrist and nurofen just in case. Will see on Monday.


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 3,234 Mod ✭✭✭✭Edwardius


    Wrist is stiff today, not awful though.

    Was out in Platinum in Malahide
    Back squat:
    135-145-155(f)
    kinda sorta got pitched forward on 155.


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 3,234 Mod ✭✭✭✭Edwardius


    Wrist a little better. Tried racking a bar: pain

    Back squat: triple 140 (pb)
    130x4
    Zombie squats to 100x5

    Today: physio in Malahide, saw Roy Keane looking grumpy, he didn't ask me for an autograph

    I've a sprain in one of the wrist ligaments, 2-4 weeks recovery. Smolov intense it is then...

    Sn RDL : 100kg
    Abz

    Squat:
    4x90, 4x105, 4x120, 2x135, 3x135, 4x135, 5x135 (pb)


    did an extra rep on the last set. was supposed to be 3-4-4 but I failed a rep in the triple so took it again. Did 5 in the last set for a larf.

    Hip and shoulder stuff. Wrist isn't ready for the 'lympic yet.


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 3,234 Mod ✭✭✭✭Edwardius


    Squatty Squat:

    4x128, 3x3x135, 3x143 (PB). Hard

    Sn Dead/pulls whenever a rep felt good 100kg

    Snatch: worked up to 70 with minimal pain
    power clean+clean: up to 90

    reverse lunges

    hip things
    shoulder things
    Rhabdominals (GHR situps)

    Beginning to dread the next session and all the rest.


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 3,234 Mod ✭✭✭✭Edwardius


    Am: Pain = 1

    Rack jerked up to 80, pain was like 5 when racked, 4 overhead. I'm gonna stop at 5 for the next while
    Hip rehab stuff

    pain = 1 now.


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 3,234 Mod ✭✭✭✭Edwardius


    Back squat:
    3x113, 4x128, 135kg: 5-5-5-3-5

    meant to be 4x5 at 135. failed the 4th rep of 4th set. Many sadnesses. retook the set then and got them all with a rotten grind. final reps in each set were highly unattractive.

    did some presses, wrist may have been happier.

    Halfway through the intense phase. All top sets are 135 and 143 until the end. I'm "acquainted" with 135 at this stage but 143 is kinda scaring me a bit.


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 3,234 Mod ✭✭✭✭Edwardius


    Skwatt:
    5x5x135kg. Not as bad as wednesday. Kinda getting the hang of fighting a bit more. Again, these weren't massively attractive.

    Snatch: up to 85 for a single, 90 behind. pain = 1 a minute after. Sound.

    SN RDL 3x8x95kg


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 3,234 Mod ✭✭✭✭Edwardius


    Erm, just rolled and did voodoo floss things and hip rehab.
