Wednesday 8-13-08

SOHP

Bar*10
Bar*10
135*6
185*5
225*3
245*2
275*1 +10 lb PR



285*0 - This was retarded. I made the novice mistake of mis-cuing my music and it changed songs right before liftoff... I stalled well past my normal sticking point but lost concentration and my triceps didn't lock it out. There's no doubt it'll go next time, and FAST.
225*8


1 arm DB SOHP
80*5/5
100*5/5
120*5/0 - left arm was shot. I could've PP the first one and then repped out but it didn't seem worth it.


Cable triceps press-down
Heavy*7
Heavy*7
Heavy*7
Heavy*13


I'd only had about 1300 calories before lifting, so I'm very happy with the showing tonight.

I want a 300 lb strict press.

Thursday - 8/14/08

Squats - Light/Technique day

Bar*7
Bar*7
135*6
225*5
315*5
405*3
495*2
525*3
545*2
405*6 - 2 second pauses at the bottom. I had to wait for the "Up!" from Mark before rising. Dizziness and deafness ensued.

My form on these has come a long way. I'm able to stay on my heels, and can (finally) keep my chest/torso up and solid and not let my hips rise too fast. Even on my slower reps (545) I didn't even come close to losing form forward. Part has to do with wearing Chuck's again instead of oly shoes.


Single leg lying hamstring curls


65*7/7
80*7/7
95*7/7
95*7/7


Adductor machine

Whatever*8
Whatever*15
Whatever*15

I can't believe how shaky I was on these, AND how quickly I fatigued. I'm a fairly big guy, and decently strong, and I shouldn't be shaking with half the stack on the good girl/bad girl machine unless there was a serious muscle imbalance. I think this was a good find, and helps highlight the fact that I haven't gone wide stance on ANYthing in a long time. I'm going to keep up with these.


Stretching

Wednesday - 8/21/08

Power cleans

135*3
205*3
255*3
285*1
305*1
335*1 - +10 lb PR - It was also a full clean in that I had to drop to get under it.
205*5 - practiced dropping into the catch.



Tire flip

400 lb
*5 flips
*6 flips

780 lb
*3 flips
*5 flips
*7 flips
*14 flips

Tire was MUCH better tonight, it felt like it did a few months ago. I attribute the bad tire wo last week to a new energy pill, low sleep, and tweaked upper back.
