[izzygrant]

Around 6 minutes of jump rope to warm up.

Snatches
95 3x2
115x1,0
100 4x2

Snatch Deadlift
135x3
185x3
225x2
275x1

Clean Deadlift
315x1

Clean
135x2
155x2
155x1,0(fell on my ass),1

Would have been an easy double if not for falling.
175x0
165x1

Ripped open a nice nickel sized flap of skin on my right palm, so that ended the workout.

All in all a solid day.

YOU fell on your ass?? That's my job!

Nice workout. Did you Dl before cleans?

[Filmbuff81]

Yeah I did snatches, then deads, then finished with cleans.

I do that once in a while, because cleans feel super light and easy after. Probably will do it for snatches next time too.

[Filmbuff81]

When I get a new phone I will start filming again.

Right now only have my broken iPhone for listening to music, so I haven't bothered filming anything as of late.

[Saintsqc]

lol @ falling on your ass

Did you look after to make sure nobody saw you When I do something stupid, there is always someone who saw me


Clean after deadlift?? Damn, I wouldnt want to do that. The weight would feel like a ton for me.

Oh everyone saw. I simply laughed shook my head, got up and then proceeded to clean the weight haha.

I didn't do a ton of reps with the Deadlifts, so it didn't do much aside from fatigue my lower back a tiny bit.

Sometimes I need a heavy ass lift to prime me for the olympic lifts.

It's why I tend to squat before snatches and cleans most days.

Once I am actually lifting some heavy weight I won't be doing it though.

[Filmbuff81]

Of moving into our new apartment. ID squats will happen one of these days after I stop aching.

Lol , I know the feeling - lots of "Deadlifts"

[Filmbuff81]

Haha yeah move went well, but was 3 days of "Deadlifts" and farmers walks basically haha.

I am thinking I will take advantage of our new facilities for a bro workout and maybe a sauna.

Be careful old man

Lol man we have so many birds in Vancouver and way back in my log I was ranting about having a family of seagulls living outside my window for months on end.

****ing noisy as hell 24/7.

[izzygrant]

Nice view! My last apartment, the seagulls were out of control. This one is not too bad. But it's only 4th floor so I hear the traffic instead.

[Filmbuff81]

Started off with snatches then a few rounds of the shankle complex plus rows.

The did squats.

Worked up to 315x5. +2 reps from last week.

Probably had 6-7 in me.

Then did a back off set of 225x12.

Could have done 15-16.

Not bad for how this week has gone.


2 weird short terms goals. I want to get to 315x10+ and then do a 20 rep 2 plate squat.

Then I want to do a 3 plate 20 rep squat at some point.

awesome. goals like these make you stronger and better

[Filmbuff81]

They will definitely test my mental fortitude!

Hip/groin still off, but oh well.

Oh and shanks complex was 140lbs tonight. Think I had video of one.

Hang clean is a bit wonky, but good practice to remove some arm bend.

[Filmbuff81]

One day this will be done with 2 and 3 plates.

If I can keep adding 5lbs once a week I will get there eventually.

[Filmbuff81]

They nested right outside our bedroom window. I will take traffic noise over that haha.

[MKW]

First off, I appreciate the fact that there haven't been 10 pages of updates since I was last on here, haha. I only went back three pages so maybe I missed it, but any details on the move? What type of place? Great view.

Jealous of the casual 3 plate squats.

Haha didn't feel too casual during it and your squats are progressing quite nicely!

We moved into a new 1 bedroom downtown. Nothing crazy fancy. There is a nice big pool, hot tub, and a serviceable gym if I need to get some quick work in.

A smith machine I will only use for chinups, but there is a flare bench so if I wanna sneak in some deads I could.

Right next to BC Place and Rogers Arena downtown. I luckily have a 5 minute drive to work. Unlike New York most things in vancouver are close together so I rarely have had to commute much for work.

It's also dog friendly so no more hiding the pup haha.

If you look up spectrum towers vancouver you can see some photos of the complex.

[Anthony21]

Awesome olympic lifting as always Film.

[ulsak]

shankle complex coming up at thursday.. wish I could rep. It's Don Shankle we talk about?

Indeed it is sir Donny Shankle. I would have to say just doing it the past week it's helped me a lot on my second pull and being faster under the bar. I have a tendency to bend my arms a little too much s I am trying to remedy that with the hang pulls and cleans.

[Filmbuff81]

Awesome olympic lifting as always Film.

thanks Anthony! Glad to see you back on the train! Hope all is well in your world.

[izzygrant]

Missed the last couple updates... I can't imagine what could have distracted me...

Spectrum is nice, I'm jelly. Also of the fact that you can lift right now.
