If you've never actually done that, i'll tell you that however hard you think you should be squeezing, you actually need to squeeze twice as hard. Also foam rolling them beforehand, so that they're loose(er) and doing an accessory movement at the end of the workout that helps with them (ghr certain kinds of box jumps, bridges, some other stuff). T-nation has a good article on developing glutes and activating them, you should be able to find it with a quick Google search.

So yesterday I did deadlifts after more than a month, and like 6 months since the last time I pulled regular (I did sumo last time), Wanted to relearn technique and work at medium intensity, but I was surprisingly strong. Also found out the barbells at the gym are a bit thicker than regular, no wonder I never have grip issues at competitions.

Yesterday: Deadlift 170kgx3x2, 170kgx2x3, Pulls ups 8-8-8-6 (I want to start adding weight, but bringing my bag to put discs on it seems too much work t.t)

Today I felt like shit upon waking up. Not happy with that, I decided to ignore my feelings and hit the gym for some PR's.

FS: 125kgx1x15 (PR, 15 times)
BP: 125kgx1x15 (I haven't benched this much in a lot time, I'm sure I can beat my 133kg pr with some rest)

It seems adding pull ups and OHP variations is doing wonders for my BP, because my shoulders are just way more stable and balanced.

Today:

Pendlay warm-up progression for clean
Clean & jerk: 20kgx3x1, 45kgx3x1, 50kgx1 55kgx1 57.5kgx1, 60kgx1, 62.5kgx1 65kgx1, 67.5kgx1x5
Pendlay warm-up progression for snatch
Snatch: 20kgx3, 25kgx1, 30kgx1, 35kgx1, 37.5kgx1, 40kgx1, 42.5kgx1, 45kgx1x5
Some arm work.

Missed two jerks on the top set of cleans. Power cleaned the first one too. Sucks, but I feel better about my jerk than about my clean, and better about my clean than about my snatch. Almost comfortable enough to start posting videos though.

yesterday:

squat 90kg 2x5 bad form, 80kg 1x5

today:

squat 60kg 1x10
bench 80kg 3x6 ish , 70kg 1x12
dead reps at 110kg (fail 115)

bench would be 2x better if my back didnt fuck up after 5 reps (same kinda issue i had when i was around 55-60kg, so itll go away/i need to change something - i think it happens when i bring the bar too low down on my chest like below my nipple or something, this would put the weight onto that area of my back and unbalance me)

squat yesterday was lame, i will be squatting daily (light) again coz that was doing wonders for keeping my legs "warm"

deadlift fine just had no grip strength

could manage 1 single lone chinup o_O

Squat 84kg 3x5 - building the foundation back, probably try jumping 5kg a workout
Dip 25kg 3x5 - pretty pleased with this.
Pull-up 20.5kg 3,2,2 - Worse than monday. going to lower the weight and just start working up 3x5. a little ambitious this first week back in it.

Running has been taking its toll I think and making me tired on the squats but Tough Mudder is less than 3 weeks away! woot woot. Also proud of my 28.5 min 4 mile run yesterday so not going to sweat the squats being tiring

Deadlift 5x100 5x130 5x160 3x180 3x200kg
Front squat 6x10 60kg (lolololol)
Planks/crunches/reverse crunches

Fuck my knees.
I have found the Iron to be my greatest friend. It never freaks out on me, never runs. Friends may come and go. But two hundred pounds is always two hundred pounds.

Today:
Squat 1x3 80, 100, 120, 1x1 142.5kg, 3x1 162.5kg PR - It's a volume PR, so it's not that exciting
BP 1x3 52.5, 65, 75, 85, 1-1-1F 102.5kg PR - Both my wrists were aching, so it's pretty nice that I managed the lift anyway.
Chin ups 1x3 +40kg
L pulls up 1x5
Dips 1x3 30kg, 15kg

My wrists were really bothering me so I decided to not do the rest of the workout.

Only reason I haven't gotten these already is that the shipping costs are more than likely well over the costs of the wraps themselves. But I suppose that if this shit continues I'll just have to fork over the money.
