No Rest for the Weary

[CRZA]

My body wasnt on top today, but it seemed to help with the speed, so thanks

Didnt train last night. had to go to the doctor. Saw that my eczema started devoloping badly, and thought it might be staph, as Ive had it twice before. Turns out I got Impedigo, which is caused by the staph bacteria. Got antibiotics, so it should be cleared out in a few days / a week. Also, DO NOT SEARCH FOR IMAGES ON GOOGLE ON ANY SKIN INFECTION OR DISEASE, its disgusting as hell and leaves you with nightmares.

The sort of bad / cool thing is I got a little on my face too, so im starting to look like two face

Going to do press, push press and back work today. Tomorrow Cleans, squats, front squats and bench press.

Not a great day, low on energy. Hopefully lifting will be better tomorrow, next week is PR week, so I need some confidence.

Isnt pressing weird like that? It's my favorite movement and I probably practice it more than anything else but I'm still unsure on how to properly warm up for max attempts. Sometimes I need a lot of warmup sets, sometimes all I need is singles. Its like any little thing can effect the outcome of a press day

 

[CRZA]

I agree completely. You never know what to expect. I ht 70 x 4 last week, yesterday I missed 70 twice..

Day 2
Resting my lower body today, feeling really tired after tuesday's session. Tried some snatches at beggining, but quit quickly.

paused Bench Press:
bar x 5
40 x 5
60 x 5
80 x 5
100kg x 3,3,3,2,2,2,2,2
80kg x 7,7,6
Changing grip width each set. Strangely enough when I close grip the bar speed is the fastest.
ok, main problem with paused is that it feels like im holding on to the bar forever, and I loose alot of speed.

Overhead press from top of head
55kg x 5,5,5,5
resting bar on rack each rep

Chin ups, hepburn method. Will probably do these when I bench press.
15kg x 2,2,2,2,2,2,2,2

Now a deload week, which will consists of alot of oly work, since the weightlifting WC is on tv and I get easily inspired.

unrelated to the log, but ill probably stop doing mma traning for a while. Not really any motivation in me right now. got staph in juny, kept me out for 3 weeks, hurt me knee right after summer vacation, couldnt train propely for over a month, got healthy, and now got staph in the end of october.. :icon_neut

Here's something to not dissapoint my log lurkers

 

[belph]

Kate upton ? yes, yes, YES !

A question you asked Arlecchino that i shall answer.

I also have a question
Is it possible to do Jerks, without having to drop the bar. I cant drop the bar at home.
How would I program it? Also, no lifting for 3 days, im starting to get worried ?

Yes, you can. I just lower it a bit quicker than i would a press.

 

[Jester]

The lurkers are happy with your entertainment

 

[CRZA]

thats cool, do you do them split or push style?

more kate

 

[StevenH]

Nice lifting. Even nicer pictures. I think I'll be around here a bit more often for now on.

 

[belph]

thats cool, do you do them split or push style?

Both, It depends on my mood. If i do splits I actually do 2 reps. I like jerking a lot.


:icon_twis

 

[toonie]

Mmmm. Those gifs were great in a quick pass. Will look at them more intently when I'm at home and not at work!

Great work with the cleans. 100kg is yours before the end of the year for sure.

 

[Keosawa]

Hang in there. The deadlifts will come in time.

 

[CRZA]

so, gifs of kate = more log posters

haha, cool. I got to step my game up then.

Thanks, thats the goal =D

Hang in there. The deadlifts will come in time.

I hope so, ill try for some PR's at the end of the year.
