Hey man. Good to see a log here.

What's your strength like on the less technical lifts? Squat, bench, deadlift? Front squat looks quite strong.

Thanks Spug!

Haven't benched or done deadlifts for quite some time now, but back the it was DL - 1x5 175kg and Bench - 3x5 85kg (I'm horrible at the bench press, seriously, horrible) My BS is 3x5 145kg, but that'll hopefully improve some in august as I'm gonna do some serious squatting then.

solid, will be reading this with interest.

Have you done comps before?

great goals, lets see some work mate!

[SpugFab]

Quite a difference from the bench to your overhead. If those numbers are anything like accurate you must be getting quite a bit out of you technique.

Do you train with a coach or as part of a crew?

I've never done comps before, but I'm hoping to compete soon though

I'm fortunate enought to have a coach 1on1 every time i train, so I'm getting my technique hammered down But I've always had good overhead strength. Back when I was benching, there was only a 10kgs difference between my BP and OHP.

But with the jerk, it's really all about how fast you can get under the bar and catch it

Good to see a log !

Thanks bronco! It's good to be on a board that focuses on strength!

Good session.

How is your training structured then? Do you have a routine you follow each week, or does the coach mix it up more than that?

[xCx]

I've got a routine which I follow, but my coach mixes things around If weak points need fixing.

It's rather simple. I do my main lift which is either a full snatch/clean or a power version, then proceed to do high pulls and FS/BS. After that it's typicly assistance exercises and core work.

That's correct JP. I wasn't actually planing on doing 115kg today, but seeing as Spug was being all smug about doing a 75kg snatch the other day in the oly challange, I thought I'd retaliate by doing a 115kg C&J Hopefully it won't be long before I nail it.

All attempts to silence the Spug are doomed to failure.

Every broken enemy will know.
