Hrm. I'll have to try this. Thanks.

bw- 169.8 this AM (don't know why I am reporting it but whatever...)
well, last workout sucked and as I have said before.....a good workout usually follows a bad workout. This was a much better wokrout even though I was at the same gym. There were less people in my way so I could concentrate and get stuff done. Still couldn't go heavy because I don't have bumper plates or4 a platform to drop the weight on after the rep and lowering heavy weight is brutal on my shoulders and back.

felt great today! I went to 155 witch is one pound more than my opening atempt at the last meet, 70kg (154lbs). The weight felt very light overhead and I was moving it quickly. I was sitting comfortably into the hole on my squat snatches also. I felt good today and wanted to go higher but like I said, I am not able to at this gym. I think I could have tossed up 175lbs today.
did less volume and went lighter on my cleans since I did so much volume on my snatches. Worked up to a little better than 70% (77kg or about 170lbs) of my best 1RM, 110kgs (242lbs).

I added more weight to keep going but I can't move the weight that follows quick enough to call it a real "pull" so I just call it deadlift with a toe raise and shrug. I figured my pulling muscles could use the stimulation.

the next weights I couldn't get a toe raise or a shrug but I haven't deadlifted in about 4 weeks so instead of squating heavy today I decided to work up in my overhand grip deadlift.

Although I can do more with a mixed grip but once i started o-lifting i gave it up since it doesn't help me much. My best ever on a double overhand grip deadlift was 385. I crushed that today!! I was pretty happy....yeah grip strength!!

not a PB on the deadlift.....it is a PB on an overhand grip deadlift. I can do more weight with a mixed grip. I have never pulled that weight from the floor with a double overhand grip.

all of my deadlifts for the past months were overhand except for 4 weeks ago when I was pulling triples I had it in my head to go and just do a mixed grip. This time around I just wanted to pull singles and see hom much I could hold in my hand. It wasn't hard at all. The weight didn't feel to heavy. I was pretty tired though because I did a lot of stuff before it. I want to see if I can get up to 500bs with and overhand grip. I think it I can do that I will start calling myself a man. Only boys deadlift with an over under girp.
Nice grippin' strength P. That's good shit.
If you want to copy it that is cool. I haven't seen it yet. It is supposed to have some pretty incredible competition footage. I believe he deadlifts with a double overhand grip and in that video he pulls something like an 880lb deadlift double overhand at the wordl championships.

Have fun in vegas
well, just got home from vegas. had a good time. We only went to the convention one day (friday) because for some strange reason the promoters of the show decided to have the contest at one place (the orleans hotel were most people stayed) and the convention at another place (las vegas convention center) which was a solid 20-45min away depending on traffic!! FUCK THAT! The IFBB really dropped the ball on their planning this year. I didn't go to the show either since I didn't want to pay an ass load of money to sit in shit seats were you can 't see anything anyway. I am glad I didn't!! From what I heard the show was a train wreck with lots of miss cues and technical errors. Why charge a big time price if you can't put on a big time show? I have never been to an olympia yet that was run smoothly.
Anyway, other than that had a great time. Met up with Jodi and Britchick again. Got to see twinpeak and rob at thier booth also. And.....got to hang out with the Monkey Man!! Dude is a total character....very funny. We all had a fun workout on saturday afternoon despite being tired, run down and logged down from all the shit food we ate at the buffets. Nothing spectacular, in fact I lifted like total shit since i hand't lifted since tuesday and was sitting on my ass. We all did olympic lifting effcept for kerry who took a few cracks at it and decided it is not for her (although we did get her to do real squats which was fun.). MonkeyMan and i did snatches, clean and jerks, front squats and push presses. It was fun. Monkey is a strong dude and if he corrects some technique errors should be able to put up even more weight. Ivonne and Jodi did clean and press combos, squats and some other stuff. it was jodi's first try and cleans. It is to bad that she has the injury to her forearm that keeps her from getting into a solid rack position. She could be vary good at it. She was really fast!
All in all it was a good trip.

lol, flight needed to be re-routed to Milwakee (sp?) instead of Indiana. our plane out of vegas got delayed. our flight from indiana to NYC left without us. I got mad....I yelled. We got free hotel stay and diner in Milwakee (sp?) and a flight out on the first plane leaving this am...which was then delayed, changed gates, left an hour late. got home at noon.
Sorry to hear that!
I'll bet Brit cruises right through, because her departure was so late -
oh wait here's some more to add about our little ordeal in getting home. because northwest airlines screwed up, our flights were changed, and all that crap, we were flagged for additional screening and had to go through pat-downs, and all our tightly packed bags had to be undone and thoroughly manhandled by the retards running the pre-flight screenings.The Monkey Man said:

Not only that, but after our gate changed this morning, so did the plane because our original plane had to be serviced (?) and apparently they found problems wiht it. We end up on a flight where we're on the absolute last row next to the engines. The only redeeming quality of that flight were the comfy, extra-wide leather seats and no crying babies (or any babies for that matter) on board.
Glad YOU made it home!!!!Jodi said:Glad to see you made it home finally. Rough night huh?
I had a rough drive home yesterday
Never know on the olympic lifts, I just may keep trying and see what happens
As for the olympic lifting... from one beginner to another, you should definitely keep at it, you did really well for someone who'd never done it before!
Guess you were lucky, considering it was Northwest and they were on strikeGoalGetter said:oh wait here's some more to add about our little ordeal in getting home. because northwest airlines screwed up, our flights were changed, and all that crap, we were flagged for additional screening and had to go through pat-downs, and all our tightly packed bags had to be undone and thoroughly manhandled by the retards running the pre-flight screenings.

I just might. I'm kind of intrigued now but I wouldn't even know how to go about doing it

Wow, a free nights stay in Milwaukee. I guess it could have been worse, you could have had a free nights stay in hell.

did some combo lifting. going to try and go to another gym thursday afternoon and work up in some heavier weight in preparation for next saturday's meet. At this point I don't even really want to do it. I haven't been able to lift heavy because of not being able to get to the proper gym to do so and I just feel like I am not going to do well. I guess I will just tough it out and then hopefully not compete until next year (jan.) so that I can really work on technique plus I want to increase my strength big time and cycle back into some 20 rep squats for the next 2 months.

Back from a trip of gorging, drinking, and jetlag and right back in the gym. Rock on.

good place to start as far as weight or as far as exercises?
For weight....no more than you were using last weekend until the form is solid.
For exercises.....olympic front squats, clean pulls (working on extending all the way and keeping the bar really clothes to your hips on the shrug) and ofcourse working on cleans. Maybe even slowing down a bit on the cleans for a little bit to try and feel the form more than just throwing it up there and moving so quickly that it makes the catch jerky and off balance.
I will try the front squats but I already know I suck at those lol.
