Reverse Hyper Leg Curl:
55 x (20)2 (40:128:649) * roller

* Notes:

- Three crummy days of sleep has finally caught up with me.  My legs were extremely sore this morning and I just didn't have enough "umph" to explode violently with the power snatches, as evidenced by my 10kg decrease from the last session.  Tomorrow is probably going to be a rest day.  My body definitely needs it.

* Notes:

- Very quick, down and dirty workout with a new current PR of 132.5kg in the power clean.  My best ever is 142.5kg, and I'm slowly climbing back and feeling more powerful in the execution of this particular lift.  Hopefully, I can ride this wave a little longer.

* Notes:

- Not a bad workout.  Still trying to properly synchronize the foot movement along with catching the weight overhead simultaneously, and today a was a day of progress.  I managed to power snatch 115kg but mentally quit with 120kg -- maybe next week?

Reverse Hyper:
90.5 x (20)3 (60:109:299) * strap

* Notes:

- Early morning wake up call thanks to my daughter resulting in a shitty night of rest; surprisingly, made for a half decent workout.  I nailed 162.5kg x 4 in the back squat and I think I could have squeezed out another repetition but decided to save it for my next squat workout.  Push presses went well too with a new PR of 122.5kg.  I'm slowly getting closer to the goal of 130kg.

* Notes:

- Horrible power snatch session due to my inability to coordinate and synchronize foot movement with my arms -- a complete bust!  Something I definitely have to work on -- extensively!

145 x (2)3 (6:39:360) @ 80%

* Notes:

- Considering the fact that I haven't power cleaned in what seems like months, making a 130kg was something to applaud.  I barely missed 135kg, which (in retrospect) is only 7.5kg off my all time best.  Not bad!

- Weights - 1, Joe - 0.  That pretty much summed up today's workout.  I got my ass stapled with 175kg in the back squat and 107.5kg felt like a metric ton -- fuck me!

* Notes:

- Fairly shitty workout but these days do happen and I tried my best to make the best of it.  Nailed 135kg in the snatch recovery but 142.5kg was too much for today.  Along the same lines, 110kg block snatch is all I could manage and my attempts at 120kg were all forward.  Everything seemed off today -- even the snatch pulls.  There is always tomorrow.

* Notes:

- Wasn't expecting to make 172.5kg for a triple today considering the botched workout from yesterday where I struggled to clean recover 145kg; however, I was pleasantly surprised to make the 172.5kg without any issues -- although, the last repetition was slightly sticky.  Nevertheless, today's workout went well.  The push presses could have gone better but it wasn't in the cards -- maybe next time.

165 x 3 (3:27:27) = 179 * dmax
145 x 3/2/3/2 (10:37:37) @ 80%

* Notes:

- Physically crushed from two days away from the platform and it showed today.  Clean recoverys were abysmal and I didn't have the fire or drive to fight.  125kg felt great but 145kg was a completely different story -- it felt like the weights were bolted to the blocks -- humbling!

- Clean pulls went fairly well but I notice a departure from my form as the weight increased to 165kg -- you can see it in the above video clip.  Additionally, it was hotter than hell in the garage today.

Rest:

- Second day of "active rest" spent prepping the house for sale.  Tired, exhausted, hungry, but feeling accomplished.

Saturday, July 19, 2014

2014JUL19 (UNT D6.W2)

Rest:

- Taking a day of rest to focus on the house.  Active rest is probably the better term.  Regardless, it's a day away from the platform.

- 4 hours of sleep and still managed to squat 170kg x 3.  I'm surprised and delighted.  Kept the workout very short and simple today with super setting the press and reverse hyper to capitalize on my time.  Time to rest and recoup for tomorrow.

* Notes:

- Said, "The HELL with it!" and decided to add an additional 5kg instead of the projected 2.5kg to today's squat workout.  It panned out well but my last rep at 165kg was a little too sticky for my liking!  Next workout, I plan on maybe sticking with the 165kg and trying an additional rep.

92.5 x 3 (3:29:123)
102.5 x 3 (3:32:126)
112.5 x M/M/1 = 115 (3:35:129) * dmax
94 x 3/2/3/2 (10:45:139) @ 80%

* Notes:

- Left shoulder is tight (nearly to the point of feeling strained) from yesterday's dip session.  I shouldn't have gone so heavy, because I'm paying for it today.  Only could muster 112.5kg in the push press for a single -- pathetic!
