As of early 2013, we are still in the process of rebooting unto the new platform

If you want to keep track of the relaunch you can:

  1. Like us on Facebook
  2. Follow us on Twitter
  3. Send me (Kris) an e-mail and let me know that you'd like to join the new site when it is ready.

Once we are ready to relaunch, we will start spreading the word. Until then, expect silence to mean we are heads down coding. :) The forum is still open for active members, but don't expect a lot of activity here since meets are currently on hold.

Off to a terrible start here.  Ended up getting called into work on Friday, and then Saturday as well. 

Spent a little time on Saturday attempting a Turkish get-up for the nowyoutry.com monthly challenge.



Sunday took the technique work from day 2 and combined with the strength work for day 3.

Mid-hang muscle snatch - 60% x 3 x 3 - 60 - this was a little too heavy, tons of press out
2-position clean (floor, mid-thigh) + 2 jerk - 60% x 4 sets - 80

Front squat - (70% x 3, 75% x 2, 80% x 1) x 3 100, 105, 115
Snatch pull - 100% (of snatch) x 3 x 3 100
Rack jerk - start with 1 push jerk + 1 split jerk until you can't push jerk anymore; then drop to split jerk only to a heavy single 80, 90, 100 - stopped there, my shoulder was sore from the get-ups.

Monday, went and did my max attempts for the week since Tuesday night is gymnastics and Wednesday my wife is out.

Snatch: 60,70,80x2,85xf,f,1,f
C&J: 70,80,90,100,110,115xf
Squat: 110, 130, 140, 145

Turned my platform sideways and took some video.  My technique is really off, especially the snatch, the bar was leaving my legs about mid-thigh instead of near the hips.  I need to do more focused technique work in my warm-up.

Did a little conditioning with the kids at gymnastics on Tuesday, and about 20 minutes of stretching and core work on Wednesday.  Then last night:

Power snatch - 75% x 2 x 3 70
Snatch balance - heavy single; 80% x 2 x 2 70, 80 -gave up on these, need to learn them with lighter weight
Back squat - 85% x 3 x 5 132.5 - felt heavy but got better as sets went on
Clean deadlift - 115% x 3 x 3 140
Push press - 83% x 5 x 5 60,65x4 - right shoulder doesn't like these
Bent row - test max; 77% x 8 x 3 65x2,80 - 80 was a bit heavy, cheated the last couple reps
Weighted GHD sit-ups - 3 x 6 (unweighted on bench)

Spent the weekend curling in a bonspeil.  Haven't thrown a stone in a couple years but we did pretty decently, finishing 2nd in the C division.  I'm surprised I wasn't more sore after 5 games in 48 hours. 

Last night's lifting:

2-position snatch (floor, mid-thigh) - 60% x 4 sets 60
Front squat - 75% x 3, 81% x 1, 77% x 3, 80% x 1, 79% x 3 105,115,107,112,110
Snatch pull - 103% (of snatch) x 3 x 3 102.5
Rack jerk - heavy single; 90% x 1, 85% x 1 x 2 70,90,100,110,120,125f,110

3 rounds for time of:
10 sand bag halfmoons - done with 25kg plate
10 clapping push-ups
(time not kept)

Last night's workout was rushed, I tried to squeeze too much in to too little time.  Started off on the wrong foot by not getting a good warm-up and rushing into heavier weights.

Snatch: 70, 80, 85, 90fff  -- had the bar high enough but it was getting away from my body and finishing out front
C&J: 70, 90, 100, 110, 115ff --missed the jerk both tries
Front Squat: 110, 120, 130, 135f --not enough rest between attempts

Warmed up with some power snatches and then full snatch, just missed 90 twice, technique was feeling more solid.

Back squat - 87% x 2 x 4 135
Snatch deadlift - 118% (of snatch) x 2 x 3 110,120,130 -increase weight because these felt light for deadlifts
Push press - 85% x 4 x 5 70,75x4
Bent row - 80% x 6 x 3 80 - felt a little too heavy

The other good thing. my wife and I have been doing 5-10 minutes of stretching just before going to bed.  Been working mostly on my hips, a little on my bad shoulder.

Wanted to try a heavy deadlift to get a feel for how much weight I need to borrow.

Clean to bottom (not stood up): up to 120x1x2
Deadlift: 120x3, 140x3, 160x3, 185x1

turns out I'm not going to need too much more...

Conditioning

Tabata intervals, 8 rounds:
KB swings with 20kg plate
Pull-ups (assisted)
Push-ups

I really need to do more conditioning

edit: oops wrong day

Max day
Snatch: 90,f,1 92.5,f,f
C&J: 115x1,f,f
Squat: 150x1

Snatch is coming along, finally hit 90 again and 92.5 were both near misses.  115 was a little shaky on the first try, then went and missed the clean on attempt 2 and jerk on #3.

20-02-2011

Muscle snatch - 70% x 3 x 3 60
Clean + push jerk + hang clean + jerk - 60% x 3 sets 80,90,100

Front squat - heavy single (~90-95%) 140, 145f
Rack jerk - 80% x 1 x 3 - These became C&J at 110, jerks were off, missed 2 of 3

Overall, felt like a very good workout, tied my FS PR, not sure why the jerks at the end were so terrible, the two at 100 felt easy.
