God damn FF your bench is back to being legit as hell. Now you just need to keep that upward curve going in your squats.

haha enjoy it ;D

vitruvian deadlift getting up there ^_^

of course i have a solid lift after boozing and not sleeping for 3 days T_T i should just screw actually trying to prepare for comps.

fs 70 120 140 150 160 170 175 180x 180
snatch doubles x 50 70 90 100 110 singles 120 123 126x 126 130(so fast) 132x
cj 70 90 110 120 130 140 150 160 165(clean but no jerk)
Managed the same total as i did at the arnold after maxing out fs and doing snatch doubles. fml.

Wow a 160 cj, if I seen that at my gym I would probably poop myself. Your deadlift has gotta be close to 600

Haha thanks :-) first time I've hit it two days in a row in a while. Last time I maxed out my deadlift it was around d 525 (vid is on my YouTube channel) but that was prob 15 months ago

Now that I think about it, if my cj is 60% of my max dl (which it should be I think depending on how efficient my clean is) then I should be able to pull 605. When I last maxed it was 238 deadlift and clean was about 145. Which would be awesome. Kinda makes me want to max my deadlift!

Today I finally hit 100kg on the squat :D

Gonna do 102.5kg the next time since I didn't miss a rep. It also looks like I finally defeated the hip flexor pain for good, all that stretching paid off I guess. My bench will also increase the next workout and my press within the next two, deadlift goes up anyway.

Since 2plate was kind of a personal goal for me I'm gonna aim for
1bw bench
1.5bw squat
2bw deadlift
0.7bw press
now. I should reach all of that within the next 3 weeks except for the press. I guess after that my next big goals are 1plate press, 2plate bench, 3plate squat, 4plate deadlift. If I can do all that until winter then I'm really satisfied.

Cj 70 100 110 120 140 150x 150

Wow grats decaf! 4 plate squat, dang.

OHP 115lb 3x5
Chin-up 50lb 3x5

red plates are 25kg. They're not really used outside of olympic lifting. typical gym plates only go up to 45lb/20kg (and the odd 100lb plates you use on a leg press). 220kg is 485 lbs - closer to 5 plates than to 4 plates.

Well I'm not surprised it's even more impressive
I'm such a noob. Figured red was 20kg. If only there was a place to olympic lift around here I'd be all over it.

red plates are 25kg, blue plates are 20kg, yellow plates are 15kg, green plates are 10kg, white plates are 5kg. Then there are smaller diameter plates that are 1/10th the larger plate of the same color (so red is 2.5kg, blue is 2kg, etc.)

The bar is 20kg, and competitiong weight lifting collars are 2.5kg each (5kg/pair)

now you're all set to watch the olympic lifting videos that people post here, and it'll be even more impressive if you count up the weight.

Next goal is 5 normal plates - 495. I'll probably go for 500 right after lol. Our fucking aussie prop(looks more like a flanker) does sets of 4 with 225kg/495lbs ass to grass at around 110kg bw. Must get stronger.

A prop under 130kg? Blasphemy.

I can't make it to your game in NYC - that's a 6 hour trip on an exam week, but if you're playing any future tournaments in New York/Pennsylvania/New England let me know.

Hit my strength goal for the year, and it's time to cardio. Muscle memory is pretty crazy. I was putting up 265 comfortably for a few reps and stopped lifting for close to a year. Came back and was having a hard time with 160. Only a few months I'm doing 300 comfortably now.

So, two weeks to hit my Press goal that I set for myself at the start of the year (62.5kg to 72.5kg 1RM). I think this should be attainable, I've done 70kg the other week.

Tomorrow I go home for Easter though, which means my training will be extremely restricted. My rowing club where I workout at home has a narrow squat rack (narrower than I can get my hands for squatting low bar) next to a wall which means you can only use a short 13.5kg bar on it with a really low weight rating. No squats for me. Also no room for a bench in the rack, and I won't normally have a spot, so no bench either. Loads of upper back options though.

I'm going to have to work something out using only press, cleans and DLs. Issue is I'm not good enough with cleans to be doing significant weight, I guess this Easter will just be a good time to work on that.

Did DL again today. 185 lbs for 5 reps. Still hurt, but not as badly. =/. I'll give it one more week I think, and if it still bothers my hip/back, I'm going to sub it out. I'll just make power cleans a focus on wednesday (currently doing them as a sort of "warmup" for DL) and add in GHR or some other hamstring exercise to balance out.

Fourth day in a row maxing out. Looking forward to a day off tomorrow and a solid rugby game on saturday
front squat bunch of reps around 70 and 100, then 120 130 150 170 180 190x
snatch 50 70 90 110 120x 120 125 130 135x
cj 70 120 130 140 150x 150x 150

I know its been a long fucking week when i can feel the fatigue in my arms from pulling so much. lower back and hips fucking hate me. legs still feel fresh though. Totals for this week: 290, 160 (no time to snatch), 280, 280 with at least 90% squatting and a huge back squat PR
