Banging the Iron

must be the day

maybe its time to deload? or relax...



:icon_lol:


Yeah, a small backoff is needed, luckily its already written in.


If the weather in Greece isn't changing every five minutes, I'm in.

I cleaned and jerked 55kg yesterday. If my imagination serves me correctly, because of the time difference, it actually counts as 110kg by the time it gets to the States.

I'm hoping to progress even further, as soon as I can come up with more ways to inflate my numbers.
You'll need to take into account how jauntypoints manipulate time.
 
Went in feeling like hell, and I was lifting poorly. I preserved and adjusted. I got the bar to stay close and I was just finishing aggressively. I ended up snagging a small clean PR of 5 lbs, bringing my clean to 281 lbs. I'm confident I have more in the tank. Just a matter of time before 140.

90 kg 5x2( for both)


Push press
90 3x3 I just power cleaned these up.

Notes
I just said fuck it, everything was close to 90, so I just used 90.

Cleans are feeling sexxay. They're staying much closer to my body, obviously that makes it much easier.

No belt today, except for one set on the press.
 
I'm glad to see that you're finally sticking with a program. I think you will see major progress from completely all of this shit.
 
Did you notice a difference with the belt? Actually thanks for reminding me about belting up for presses, I'll keep that in my back pocket in case I need it to finish Smolov Jr.

Yeah, There was a positive difference. I'd give it a whirl, sir.

I feel like I've already progressed quite a bit, and I'm only a month in. I feel ridiculous for fucking around for so long.
