By the looks of it you are running the program jake suggested, right? Kill it, bruv.

 

Goddamn solid squatting belph!

 

That's a nice casual hang clean.

 

2 Monstahs

Solid effort



What does she have to do with MONSTER brand energy drinks you may ask yourself


Well She was a.childhood friend of MONSTER's VP in charge of marketing, I swear

 

I think you can put up a decent number and still have a shit day. IIRC I just felt miserable that day.

Rich Fronning is my hero.

Thanks, C-dawg


Uh I'll update some recent events, I'm still lifting just not logging on here. Front squatted 195 and snatch grip push pressed 145 the other day. Paused 200 for a beltless double as well.

 

Thanks, I was surprised to get it. I hate hang cleans, with a passion so I never really do them.

 

Say whhhhat??

 

You know what? Everyone has a cool, new log. I want one too. Pushing the reset button on mine as soon as I'm back to training normally.

 

Happy new Log, Belph!:icon_chee

I'll stick with Avengers Assemble for as long as possible; one cannot improve on perfection.

 

Maybe mine can be something to do with the Defenders. Or the Justice League.

Maybe I'll just call it "I'M BATMAN".

 

Batman?

 

Indeed.

 

And this happens to be an excellent choice.

 

The Russians with all their science are watching, so am I...

 

Good luck with new log, belph!

 

Oh baby. New log time.

 

Hmmm.

 

Yeah, I skimmed it and it really made sense. I'm hoping for any progress at this point.

The flyers are on tomorrow, or so I'm told. You watching ?

Yeah, the old one had over 4000 replies. A lot of OT content too, and as a show of good faith to our smurphy overlords, I moved on. Plus with me starting to do triples, I thought starting a third "they live log" was funny for some reason.

@Crza and pink, thanks !


@Nk, [image to appear soon]


Power clean and power/push jerk
90 5x3 ( did 'em together to finish quicker.)

Push press
80 5x5 not hard at all. It shouldn't be, I mean I can just press this after all.

 

Let me guess they locked your old one?

 

Glad to see you're doing that Catalyst program. I think that will work well for you. The next twelve weeks will allow you to build technique, as well as some strength, then moving on to the six weeks squat cycle will get you some much needed strength and then going back to current cycle to see where you're at.

 

I like it quite a bit so far. Having percentages laid out ahead of time feels odd, but I'm enjoying it.




@Nurse,

 

It takes any thinking and guess work out of training, which is always nice. You just do the work that is laid out for you.

 

yeah, I can't imagine I'll be taking any stupid attempts like this too. Which is a huge benefit to me.
