I'm OK with decaf having two threads.

Rugby is fantastic. Why didn't you get the rest of us interested in this sport sooner?

Most studies actually show olympic weightlifting is one of the safest sports in the world. If you're going to miss a lift you just drop the bar in front or behind you and restart the lift. The bar cant really even fall on you because you can lie down underneath the height it rests at.

Rugby on the other hand...shit can happen. In 5 full seasons i've had a sprained ankle + wrist, separated shoulder, and almost broke my toe, and split my head open twice, but i'll be damned if i ever missed a game

Workout for 9/14/11
Snatch - 2x50,60,70 then 3 singles at 80, 85, 90 (75% of 1RM, felt easy)
CJ- 2x50,70,90 then 2 singles at 102.5 (bad) and 2 singles at 110(good)
diet - 4 eggs, 1/3 lb ground beef + 3 eggs, protein shake so far. probably pulled pork for dinner.

Still pretty sore from going heavy on monday + taking a shoulder to the quads in rugby practice yesterday, was pretty much no energy after my last CJ. Always can find a way to pull another weight though, just though "It's your last lift, better be your best" and what i was doing it for "if you can't do this then you'll probably get your ass kicked in rugby" and last rep was ez pz. I do have some problems locking out my left elbow sometimes, hopefully that isn't a problem saturday.
