Hit two PRs last night!
Snatch - 95.6 kg, barely missed 100 kg twice. I'm definitely getting enough height on the bar, but lacking in getting-under speed. Will be working on that this week and going for it again soon.
C&J - 120 kg. I feel like I'm good for more on the clean, but hesitant to actually go for it when my jerk technique is still so raw. Will maybe spend some time working light jerks and heavier pressing stuff this week.

What up world. Time to get back into hardcore training.

Age 26
Sex M
Wt. 155 lbs (at 5'8)

Stats:
Sq 3x5x160
Bench 3x5x120
OHP 3x5x75
DL 1x5x240
BB Row? Not sure
PC: Not sure/never done
Chins 2x8xbw
Dips? not sure

Lap Swimming (trying to do 2-3 days per week): I haven't set a defined goal for this yet as I have just started doing this and don't really know what a great goal persay would be. Suffice to say, right now I'm swimming about 300m and dying shortly thereafter.

Side note: These are all well under what I can currently do. I'm starting light with the hopes that I will progress to where I once was and beyond. As you can all tell, there is room for me to add muscle and bulk up. The highest I've squatted/benched/DL'd for 5 reps is 240/165/320 respectively so it's a matter of me working my way back up to it (and going past this).

BW: 165

OHP: 20kgx10, 40x5, 50x5 60x3x3, 70x1
Front Squat: 20x10, 40x5, 50x5, 60x5, 80x5, 85x5, 90x3(PR), 100x

First time actually taking front squat seriously, every other time it's been a high-rep accessory type of thing. I think I'll make it a weekly thing now.

I know right. But the heaviest plate in our gym is 55lbs so maximum badassness will take a bit longer.

Gotta learn to love the deadlift and the two (deads and squats) are related. They're both in the "look like a BADASS family" and they give you the "I got strong legs", "fuck gluten" and "why are people eating 6 times a day?" look.

I recently started doing them, was so happy to find out that my normal grip can still lift 120kg without slipping the bar, no cloth no chalk no nothing, barehanded. It felt awesome!.

Are those lbs or kg?

I love deadlifts even more than squats. Can't wait to deadlift 2x my BW(127.5kg). When I hit 100kg for my 5RM I was so happy haha.

lbs
i'm still pretty skinny. i started properly doing barbell squats and deadlifts about 3 weeks ago, since i got a gym membership. before, i was doing some simple bodyweight and dumbbell exercises (basically pistols, rows, bench, dips, pullups, ohp) at my apartment's gym. the pistols are the probably the reason why my squat is higher than my deadlift right now.

and yeah, i gotta learn to love them right now, i'm just doing them cuz i want to get strong. the thing is, i've found that i like doing things that i'm good at. i'm sure once my deadlift improves, i'll start liking them :D

This will make you want to deadlift a small mountain.
how reasonable is it to eat off wood instead of your tummy?
