Today's workout:
C&J up to 80kg for three singles.
Did some cleans off blocks (not sure what the purpose of this is is haha)
FS up to 95kg for three singles.
Chin ups (BW) 9,6,5
I jerked the bar against my chin, some dudes were looking at me. I lol'd.
wow, my workouts are extremely similar to yours. props man! btw, cleaning the bar straight to your collarbone is one of those things that nobody will ever understand. it's such a powerful moment of "don't cry, you're a strong man!" haha. What's your BW? (I'm just curious) I'm at 76kg. Yea I've noticed our work outs are similar. I would race you to something but I tend to stall as the semester goes on  Edit: fuck it let's race to something :D fuck, I'm the same BW (75kg) I'm at squat 120kg 3 x 5 (currently at 110kg, I did a reset), Front Squat 100kg x 3 x 5 (95kg cause coming back and want to get my form better), Deadlift 140kg x 1 x 5. Gogog, What do you propose we race to :D? damn you own me at squats haha. go for 150kg x 5 DL? or 90kg C&J? What's your bench? Im at 80kgx3x5. Race to 100kg?  I'm at BW 84kg right now, but I'm 193 cm. My monkey arms and I will race you to 100kg bench, I'm at 74kg right now. As someone also at 193cm and long limbed I'll join that quest  . I'm a bit further behind but my bench is shooting up after not having done it for months. I don't have long monkey arms like you guys but to compensate I'm only at a measly 64kg BW, currently at 74kg bench like you guys and I want to join the fun of 100kg race!
Bring it on bitches, I will win ezpz lemon squeezy. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ E _/¯(ツ)¯\_ Z _/¯(ツ)_/¯ P ¯\_(ツ)¯\_ Z

Tried 75kg/165lbs bench today, first time I had to dump the weights when benching, I failed at 4 reps. Just one rep from finishing though so gonna give it another go next week.
Finished with pullups, arms were sooore in the shower. Loved it.

Today's workout:
BB Squat: 110x3, 125x3, 140x3, 160x1, 180x1 and 192.5x1 for a +2.5kg PR!
FS: 60x5 and 90x5-5-5 (back was done)
Leg Press: 200x10, 240x8, 280x8, 320x8 and 280x15.
The weights on the leg press weren't as high as I've gone and every set after the first one felt heavy. Just managed to finish the 8th rep @ 320kg and I don't even know what happened except that I died and was thinking fuzzy for about 2 hours after.
My hips and legs are going to punish me tomorrow T.T A question. I tried leg presses the other day (smolov switching) and I had no clue what depth is apropiate.
As deep as possible I think but not so deep as it compromises safety.
As for the monkey arm discussion: It sucks, having arms that would be appropriate for a guy breaking 2m but then again we have a huge advantage when it comes to deadlifting.

My arm span is 1.96m, and it's certainly not because of wide shoulders. I can't immagine how it would be to have longer arms than I do =x.
@CT my 3x6 75kg, 1 second pause is after a set of smolov squats, my best bench ever is 88kg. And there's no way you're going to win this race. You're going down bro.

My question is whether I should just stop working out my chest for a little while and get those other exercises up to par? Also, I think I hurt my chest a little last time(I was a little sick at the time, but felt fine. Just a lot of coughing and some slime in my throat) It's at the side of my chest, marked with yellow on the picture It doesn't really hurt except when i stretch out my arm (and also when i then pull it back). Even then it doesn't hurt a lot. 3 or 4 on the pain scale I guess. Is there any alleviating exercises? And if I should postpone my chest workout regarding the injury? ![[image loading]](http://i.imgur.com/rNH2H.png) Strained...? And yes, might be a good idea to bring up your other lifts... http://www.eatmoveimprove.com/2010/01/on-muscle-strains/
Thanks. Just wondering; Would it be okay to bench if it doesn't hurt?

I'm 88kg BW, 193cm. not sure what my max is I'll do some singles tomorrow to check whereabouts.

Wow, weirdest session ever today. I wanted to squat low-bar, because powerlifting is alive in the Netherlands but Oly lifting is pretty fucking dead. Anyhow. I can't possibly seem to get a position doesn't doesn't feel either painful or like it's gonna slip off.
So much for me adding a plate for free. Got so pissed I squatted 103kg high-bar ATG, even though it was a rest day:S
Deadlift PR: 137kg 1x5

I forgot to ask, this race, is it 100kg for 5 reps, or 1RM?

Idd, most of us could probably manage 1RM 100kg already if we weren't afraid to shit our pants.
