Ruined my body for the last three days T_T Oh well got all the partying out of my system before two weeks of school hell. Just did some light bench and stuff (including curls for the first time in months...shh don't tell anyone) cause i wanna dominate my C&J/snatches tomorrow. Amongst all this school and bullshit at least i have lifting to escape for a couple hours here and there. Hoping to clean 125-130kg, snatch my bodyweight, and start working on my jerk.
@Sjarl, whats wrong with your knees? Can you do sprints and such on them? And yeah other than some HIIT, i'd say just keep putting on more muscle to raise your bmr and maybe clear out some carbs/unnecessary calories. It's nice to eat whatever you want but if you wanna lose weight then somethings gotta give.
Gotta love sem preexam partying...
I had some really bad jumper's knee and got an operation in february and they are still not 100% fixed up yet. But they are coming along.
Sprints would be optimal if I could do them, will try them out in the near future. Sucide runs are fun.
Today's workout:
Push Press: 50kg x 8, 57,5kg x 6 and 65kg x 8
Power Cleans: around 30 reps in total with 40kg, 50kg and 60kg. Just practicing the technique.

also wierd thing, when i'm doing snatches/overhead squats the left side of my torso kinda underneath my left lat gets sore? kinda feels like some muscle or bone is not where it should be? idk i've never had an injury there before or anything. Quite a few muscles that run under there... depending on position. upperback you got all of the spinal erectors, teres major around there too, serratus posterior superior low back you got External obliques, internal obliq, tranversus abdominus, quadratus lumborum serratus posterior inferior Unless that side of your back is hypertrophying more than the right I wouldnt worry too much. Probably just a weakness being corrected
Yeah its a pretty new movement so it might just be a weakness. Ill let it go for a bit, it doesnt hinder me too much just annnoying.
I think its where the bottom of my scapula and rib cage touch when i have the bar in the overhead position while squatting. weird.

DB bench and overhead press are good. Work in some things like dumbell snatches and lunges/squats. Does your school not have a real gym?

You can cut whenever you want. Just eat less. Less whole milk > more skim milk. What does your diet/workout look like?

actually it felt better today. Snatched up to 85kg, did C&J from ~50kg to 90kg and then cleaned up to 110. I really need to a) quit jumping like a fucking idiot on my cleans and snatches and b) get weightlifting shoes asap. Also got like 3 hrs of sleep so my workout was pretty shitty. oh well.

I'll probably rewrite the existing main topic to make it a bit less cluttered for the 2011 version unless someone else wants to make it instead of me?

The deltoideus can't bring the bar overhead alone, the shoulder girdle needs to move if you want to press the bar up that much, hence muscles that pull the scapula forwards are used, i.e. the M. serratus anterior, which is pretty much exactly where you describe the soreness is, at least if I understood your description correctly.
Just came back from my leg workout. Had a nice time, squats were 100x10, 120x10, 140x7 and 160x4. That's so much more than my deadlift it's ridiculous... (deadlift is around 140x3 or so) I really have to concentrate on my lower back and my grip. I even feel like my squats are hindered by my lower back weakness, but I might be imagining that. Oh well, at least I have a goal now.

Depends when/what/why/etc.
Full fat milk good for bulking and healthier... if you're cutting in general just replace some or all with water.
If you wanna get strong/big you need caloric surplus... if cutting you need a deficit.

Sorry, I know this was way back the beginning of the thread...But he is going to have a HELL of a lot of trouble pulling that one off.
Good luck to everybody and their fitness goals! I just recently went from 140lbs to 115lbs to 170lbs due to medication, so I'm hoping to get back down to 140...

205 squat and 145 bench today.
Wednesday I have overhead press and I had a few questions regarding it.
How should I unrack this thing? Currently I squat under it and lift it out. My second question goes with this, but I also put it on my chest but man does it start to hurt after being there for awhile. Where am I supposed to rest it? Or do I just hold it up?
... and thats my two questions. Thanks in advance.

He also has an article on the warmup protocols of the Chinese women's team. It looks pretty damn brutal, like 1 full bulgarian snatch workout before they even step on the platform. But I guess when you train with sickening volume per session it seems like just a warmup.

question: does the fat on a cut of steak count as good fat? i always used to cut it off because i thought fat made you fat, now that i am more aware i'm really not sure
