has spent time in a modern educational setting Member 47, 1221 posts | 20/09 I just messed around with my new Fat Gripz. Double Overhand Deadlift 120 kg x 1 125 kg x dropped 120 kg x 1 120 kg x 1 I did the session at home where I (currently) don't have any chalk. I don't know how much difference the lack of chalk made but these lifts were pretty tough. | ||

has spent time in a modern educational setting Member 47, 1221 posts | 27/09/13 5 inch deficit pulls Warmups then... 220 kg x 1 230 kg x 1 (13 inch) Deadlifts 250 kg x 1 265 kg x 1 272.5 kg x 1 - reasonably easy, I should get this weight from 'the floor' soon Front Squats 120 kg x 3 120 kg x 3 120 kg x 3 Behind Neck Jerks Warmups then... 100 kg x 1 100 kg x 1 - I was really getting quite confident at this stage 105 kg x 1 105 kg x 1 110 kg x ouch - I lost control when the bar was still behind me and it hit me on the on the way down. It missed my head but, despite maintaining a tiny bit of control, it gave me a pretty decent whack. There's plenty of bruising now. 110 kg x 1 - I didn't want to stop despite being battered and bruised. However, it's only an assistance exercise and I'm going to leave these for quite a while. | ||

I don't think that I'd have even managed another 500 grams though. At least I'm getting some decent consistency going - especially compared to my 'efforts' in previous years. And yeah, the gym IS awesome. It actually belongs to a weightlifting club but they've sold some of the space (that you can't really see) to a Crossfit affiliate. You'd love the place. | ||

has spent time in a modern educational setting Member 47, 1221 posts | Wednesday 9th October Deadlifts Weak! I was going attempt 10-12 singles with 230-40 kg but when the first single (with 240) required plenty of effort and even dropping down to 230 kg was quite tough, I moved onto 'something else'. I think my CNS was 'feeling it' after my grinder last Friday. I then moved onto a few paused squats, some front squats and a bit of overhead work. I didn't attempt to memorise any of he weights/sets/reps. Friday 11th I didn't have much time; again. I love the gym but it only opens for limited hours; with it being a club. Front Squats Upto 140 kg x 1 Strict Press Upto 80 kg x 3 Pendlay Rows Upto 130 kg x 3 | ||

has spent time in a modern educational setting Member 47, 1221 posts | Monday 14th 'Bedridden' Wednesday 16th Still ill. Friday 18th Feeling quite a bit better. Deadlift 230 kg x 2 - comfy 230 kg x 2 - quite comfy 230 kg x 2 - still pretty easy I'm planning to complete three 'working' doubles per deadlift session, for the foreseeable future. For the first few weeks, I'll add 2.5 kg per session. I should be able to get to just above 240 kg before that becomes really challenging. I'll then add just 1 kg per week. If/when I can't complete a given session, I'll attempt it again the following week. Split Jerk 100 kg x 2 105 kg x 2 110 kg x 2 115 kg x 2 117.5 kg x 1 - I planned for a double but, after the first rep, there was clearly 'no chance'. Pendlay Rows Final set of 130 kg x 3 | ||

has spent time in a modern educational setting Member 47, 1221 posts | Tuesday 22/10 One-handed Deadlifts Several years ago, I bought Dinnie Ring replicas from David Horne but never really used them. Yesterday, I just used the large Dinnie Ring with a loading pin. Singles (with straps) Up to 195 kg with each hand. 200 kg wouldn't have gone, I could only just hold the '195' - even with the straps. A huge callus went from my right hand. Wednesday Split jerks Numerous sets with low weights focussing on being extremely snappy. Then... 100 kg x 3 105 kg x 3 110 kg x 3 115 kg x 3 120 kg x 2, f3 115 kg x 3, f4 105 kg x 6, f7 I was going to do some front squats but I didn't think that I had much left in the tank. | ||
