High intensity training log

like built said sometimes you just need a day or two if your feeling a bit over trained. keep up the good work though you've been doing quite a hell of a job.
 
Deadlifts 315x1 (came up real easy so I added more) 335x5
Front squats 225x1 235x1 PR
Good mornings 185x6 185x7

I felt pretty sick after this work out. I have never deadlifted 335 before so it's kind of a PR. I am way better in the 7-10 rep range than the 1-5 so I'm not sure if this is better than 315x8 or not. Front squat came up real slow but I wasn't struggling it was weird. I think if I did those first I have another 20 pounds in me. Good mornings are new to the routine.
 
nice front squattin'.
 
Impressive workout all round, especially the Good Morning numbers, have far are you getting down on the good mornings? Did you video it?
 
I went a little deeper than this chick. I forgot my camera today, but I wish I hadn't got some good lifting done today.

New goal is 190 by my birthday, which is June 30th. Once I get to 190 I will decide if I want to be a little bigger or just start strength training.
Goal reached and 190 is not as big as I thought it would be so gonna still get bigger. So new goal is 210 by the end of the contest. I thought my weight gain was going to slow down but since it didn't I want to see if I can get 210 by july 15th.
 
Yeah i think i get further down then her too, however, im only using about 110lbs as dont want to sacrifice form. So building up the good morning numbers nice and slow.

That work out took a long time, don't know why. I guess I spent a lot of time on cleans. I kept fucking up the 175 and barely got it and I don't think I could have done 176 pounds lol. I feel like I can hit a 165 jerk just fine but I fucked up the form, O lifts are a bitch. A good work out considering I did some heavy deads yesterday.
 
I always wanted to learn the 'clean and jerk'. I always thought its such a bad ass movement. Do you know any website that shows you how to do it properly? I don't want to just wing it and learn as I go along.
 
Here is a good series for the clean, there are 4 videos in the series. I don't know of any good ones for the jerk, but it's like doing a push press and then taking a step back while bending the knee to get below the bar more. Instead of pressing the weight up focus on you getting under it instead. (you still push up though obviously). My technique is not very good but I'm practicing lol. I need to dive under more on both parts of the lifts.

My belt is making my back look like it is rounding but it's not as bad as it looks, I promise.



Brutal work out, video taped every set today. I realize I have been saying my squats are ATF when they are really just below parallel, it's a matter of inches because my stance is very narrow but still, ATF is ATF and anything higher is not. I did a second set with more correct form and it really didn't feel any harder, I'll make sure I am getting appropriate depth from now on. I am pretty confidant I could get 255x11 with full depth. I was surprised at how much stronger I was today compared to my last squat session. I love training legs!
 
Listen bud, your legs are long like me and frankly your going as low as you can dont listen to these 5'9" and under lads who talk about perfect squat and deadlift technique! everybody is built differnet and we will all look different to a certain extent when we lift or push a weight, let them worry about it not us.
 
Just noticed your a fellow shoe-less squatter woohoo!! is the only way to roll. and gotta love the guy checking his pump and then doing a stretch before getting on with his curls in which his pot-belly obscures his view of the bar at the bottom ahahaha.

Nice squatting, I would ping you for your knee ; toe positioning but as you seem to squat OL style i'll let it slide. nice to see a strong upright back for once instead of one looking like the person is about to go A over T

enlighten me in which video, can you see his knee/toe positioning? and what exactly were you going to say?

Ya I tried deadlifting and squatting shoeless one day and it helped a lot, never wearing shoes again. Your right about my squat form, it's O style. I like full range of motion. I need to get deeper next time but that's been addressed lol. If I was going for a 3/4 squat (aka parallel) I would widen up a bit and my knees wouldn't go so far forward.

In the squat video at the bottom. If you look you can see his knees almost moving out in front of his toes, which if using a conventional squat stance is a big nono on the joints and can cause issues, but as the IHate squats Olympic style i.e. very clsoe foot positioning it is the only way to get depth and maintain balance, hence it is acceptable in this situation.

Squatting barefoot is the way to go that being said if finances allow a pair of Vibram five fingers are my faourite training tool. And I thought the depth was bang on the money for ATF if you went any lower you'd be using the floor to box squat!! :roflmao:
 
Loving the videos, man. Keep it up :thumbs:

Great feeling work out, didn't do any direct arm work my arms were fried from everything else. I was happy to see my back got slightly stronger even though I wasn't really training it at all the past month. I know that jerk was ugly, but at least I got it up. Still doing some weighted stretching at the end of my work out, but I had to cut it short today because of time.
 
Oh I forgot about that lol. My dad was going to drive down here 8 hours and spend one night and have to go back home, and when he told me that I just convinced him to wait a few more months and I would go visit him and the rest of y family for a week. I saw him Christmas so it hasn't been terribly long, just a few weeks longer than I've been weight lifting.
 
Your technique on the jerk was wrong or a better term maybe incorrect and hence it became a push press not a jerk, there should be no need to fight the weight.

On the dip before the jerk your squatting too low, and so you lose elastic energy and don't get the force, Also have you tried doing a split on the jerk? it reduces the distance the bar has to travel during the jerk
 
No he's going to say if you put that much effort into getting a job you would have one by now!:laugh: I'm totally calling this one, and no, I'm not joking.

:lol: That's what Dads do. It's in the job description. :)

I step back, it's hard to tell in the video. How far should I step back though? I step back maybe 18 inches. I know I shouldn't be fighting the weight though, should I reduce weight and get the form down?
