    7/28 yay, i finally managed to get one in succession of another session without taking forever in between back squat 330x3 (305x5)x3 Hang Power Snatch 130x3 150x3 170x3 Snatch 150x3 170x3 (190x3)x3 Snatch Balance 185x2 205x2 225x2 PR Chinese DL (235x5)x3 This was another good workout...

    keep fighting the good fight sir. even if you can't hit the weights that you're hypothetically capable of, you're still giving an overall benefit to your body by doing what you can with the lower body. but you know that already lol

    7/26 Front Squat 315x1 (285x2)x3 Power Clean (205x5)x3 Clean 215x3 235x2 (255x1)x3 - disappointed here, wanted doubles but form was lousy: pulls too high/crash down, pulling early/position forward, slow footwork. once i knock out the cobwebs, i'll get doubles without any strength increase...

    7/21 Back Squat 330x3 (295x5)x3 Muscle Snatch 105x3 125x3 145x3 Snatch + Hang Snatch x3 145x1 165x1 (185x1)x3, PR tie and over all volume record Snatch Balance 175x3 195x3 215x3, New PR A fine day! Everything felt pretty strong. Snatch complex was awesome, i don't think i've done that one...

    i've also had some shortcomings with optimizing recovery lately but reintroducing caffeine into my diet has helped lol. hopefully everything feels right for you tonight!
  7. Trying to get serious about o lifting

    7/19 Back Squat (330x3)x3 Power Clean + Hang Power Clean 165x3 185x3 205x1 Clean + Jerk 185x3 205x3 225x3 RDL (330x6)x3 It's amazing what a little caffeine will do if you take the time to reduce your tolerance. Two shots of espresso equaled a 25# increase at equivalent volume to last...
  8. Trying to get serious about o lifting

    me too haha, it was a sound investment! 7/17 Front Squat 305x1 (265x3)x3 Hang Power Snatch 125x3 145x3 165x3 Snatch 145x3 165x3 (185x3)x3 Snatch Balance 165x3 185x3 205x3 Chinese DL (225x5)x3 Good Day, I wanted a bit more for fronts but not bad. Everything else feels relatively on track.
  9. Trying to get serious about o lifting

    7/14 still distracted by other stuff going on, i'm getting enough frequency in where it feels like i'm making overall strength gains but definitely not enough to keep the o lift form precise. Back Squat 330x2 (305x3)x3 RPE 7.5, this felt surprisingly easy for this volume Power Clean + Push...
  10. Trying to get serious about o lifting

    well since my routine has been so lax it feels out of balance down there. keeping up with the constant deep squatting that i had been doing kind of kept everything stretched out and in check. pretty much i just woke up and my right si joint felt inflamed/sore enough that i didn't want to push...
  11. Trying to get serious about o lifting

    7/11 wanted to lift yesterday but woke up with SI joint acting up again. Everything was good today though Back Squat 330x2 (280x5)x3 Muscle Snatch 95x3 115x3 135x3 Snatch 155x3 175x3 (195x2)x3 Snatch Balance 155x3 175x3 195x3 Chinese DL (225x5)x3 Good Day, this was the first session...

  13. Trying to get serious about o lifting

    i sure hope so, especially now that i have the rack and can try to push development of back squats things should go up. got to get another set of plates soon though.

    6 miles!? little guy must have been worn out. i know where i live the fireworks didn't start until quite a bit later than usual and the kids were pretty much hungover this morning just from being up so late.

    7/4 Back Squat 330x1 (295x3)x3 Snatch High Pull (155x3)x3 Snatch 155x3 175x3 195x2 RDL (330x5)x3 Not too bad a day, nothing to be proud of either. I've been getting some moderate DOMS lately thanks to my infrequent and sporadic training. It's hard to believe how quickly things go away...
  16. Trying to get serious about o lifting

    7/2 Back Squat 330x2 - would have gone for a heavier single but this is all the weight i have currently (275x5)x3 Clean High Pull (205x3)x3 Clean and Jerk 185x3 205x3 225x2 RDL (330x5)x3 Felt decent about squat as I could only complete that weight for a single the last time. Generally...

    6/19 Back Squat 330x1 (275x3)x3 Power Clean + Clean 175x1 195x1 (215x1)x3 OHP 165x1 - pretty sad how quickly this has declined after not doing them for a couple weeks (140x3)x3 RDL (330x5)x3 Not too bad of a day. I might be able to do a touch more for a back squat single but that's all the...
  20. Trying to get serious about o lifting

    well so far i've been training again for about a year and in that time it's all been at home where front squats were my only option because i didn't have a stand. and before that i hadn't trained at all for 5 years.
