Clean and Jerk 70kg yesterday new PR at 65kg bw !!! Form was so atrocious I won't even ask for a review I got dumped so I have a lot of free time ... I try to eat more and count calories but I find it way harder than lifting | ||

My best lifts of all time are 200kg squat w/SBDs and 210kg deadlift beltless no sleeves. Should I? | ||

Try upping the back accesory work. | ||

Sadly I've basically been a T-Rex with no upper body for a very long time. Hasn't affected squats that much, but even for Sumo I'm limited by my weak Back/upper body | ||

Ugh such bullshit too, use to be so easy to find good protein for 5/lb a few years ago and they've just inflated margins steadily for no reason. I should just buy the protein base through my company @$4-5/kg and add some flavor lol | ||

hahaha. Product of strong legs, efficient technique, and constant shoulder/wrist injuries/tendinitis that limit my pressing much more than my snatching. Curious to see how my pressing progress goes. I think I started at 40kg 3x5 and went linear up to 80kg 3x5 over the course of 2-3 months at the beginning of last year until repeated pinched nerves in my neck from rugby pretty much destroyed my ability to press and pull. I tried a couple times (admittedly not that hard) but just couldn't seem to make the same progress. I think I've only ever pressed 95kg a couple times for a 1RM over the past few years, lower trap strength is always my bottle neck and something i've started to address lately as i've had some mild upper cross syndrome soreness in my back and probably contributes to my biceps tendonitis. Edit: PR vegetables today. Had some with every meal today. Also somehow managed to go from one of my hip external rotators being too strained for me to do empty bar work yesterday to working up to a few really solid cleans at 150kg today. Hit 4x7 pull ups (without pain!) too which is my best since early last year...it's amazing how healthy my shoulders feel after 2 weeks off rugby lol. Also the young 69kg lifter at my gym squatted 155 for 5 and then then hit a 119 hang snatch, he's gonna be good as fuck one day. | ||

I'm allergic to milk and egg so casein/whey/egg protein is out... I've been using soy protein, but heard that soy protein has really low "net protein utilization" (.61?) and I'm worried if maybe soy isn't very good? I hear there's also stuff about phytoestrogen, but that it's okay as long as you're not drinking like a gallon a day of soy milk or something?? scurred So ya can I stick with soy protein powder, or should I use pea protein powder or something instead? The downside of pea is that it's pretty high in sodium, and the brands I've been able to find on amazon also have too much carbs so the yield or whatever is mediocre. Thanks so much! | ||
