Eh, why not... here is my training journal

so someone mentioned starting one and I figure why the hell not, so here it is.

monday and wednesday
snatch 4 singles, then add 5 kilos and do more 4 more singles
clean and jerk 4 singles, then add 5 kilos and do 4 more singles
snatch pull 3sets of 3 reps at 10 kilos more than second set of 4 on snatch
clean pull 3 sets of 3 reps at 10 kilos more than second set of 4 on clean and jerk

tuesday and thursday
front squats clean and jerk weight + 20 kilos 5 sets of 3
back squats front squat weight + 10 kilos 5 sets of 3
over head squats snatch weight + 5 kilos or 10 kilos if im feeling up to it 5 sets of 3
romanian dead lifts same weight as back squats 3 sets of 3

and saturday
snatch work up to PR
clean and jerk work up to PR
front squat work up to PR

that is what ill be doing, the consept is on the monday and wednesday workouts to build consistancy. if a weight is missed then the same weight will be used the next workout, if there are no misses at all then weight can increase. and the saturday workout is to get a feel of what I can pull and I like to do it on saturday cause most comps are on saturday so Ill be used to pulling heavy on that day.

so as would be my luck, I start a log on monday and manage to hurt my knee on monday although I didnt really know I did. tuesday it started getting stiff on me as I walked around at work but I didnt think anything of it. Today Im at work hobbeling around like quazzy freaking motto, for the most part it bends but I cant fully extend it. its not that swollen and it felt good when I put some icy hot on it... long story short Ill start up again next week as I am going to let this recover fully before I try to catch cleans again.
