also i lost 7lbs in water weight yesterday due to smog alert

then 10 degree increase not including the heat index today. I am tempted to not workout for safety reasons

[SG55]

This heat is killing me. Yesterday's session was ruined because it was so unbearably hot in my garage. I want to be out there working out right now but it's so hot and humid outside... like walking into an oven. I'm gonna have to wait until the sun starts going down to lift so I don't die of heat stroke while squatting lol.

did a powerlifting meet on sunday. two and a half weeks to peak for my first oly meet on the 29th. programming suggestions? was just gonna follow pendlay's tapering for the intermediate. yes i know i'm not intermediate but with training two disciplines i have a fair amount of accumulated fatigue.

[ftwrestler]

due to my new baby, i need to make room in the budget

that means no more red meat, lean chicken or fish

it is dark meat, eggs and canned tuna for the next........oh i dunno...18 years lol

[SG55]

Also I went out.... maybe a bit before 8 when it was starting to cool off a little. It was still insanely hot, but at least the workout was manageable. Didn't get done until close to 10, though, which I hate doing. Pretty decent session, surprisingly.

Start by gradually reducing volume but keep going heavy and getting consistent with numbers that you'd want to hit. The week before start lowering the intensity, especially in clean and jerk and squat.

God I ****ing hate trying to register for meets with USAW. And when I finally get their jungle of a site figured out and get to registering, it turns out I haven't qualified as a 69kg lifter because the Muscle Driver tryouts and a meet I did at LSUS as a 69 weren't USAW sanctioned meets. I'm qualified as a 62, and I swear if I have to ****ing cut down to 62 kilos... o lordy

[ftwrestler]

tore my right hand to shreds today

had to false grip 102 on the cnj for a double

not even mad

[DaTruth1]

^False grip for hand strength, Klokov would approve based on his uploads today.

this one barely makes sense to me though, I hope someone can translate it soon:



All I can really figure out is that he is no-hook gripping and releasing his grip on every rep so it trains grip strength and delts and traps? Seems like a strange accessory exercise seeing as he already does snatch-grip-no-hook-deads...

I've been lurking this thread for a long time. Now I shall contribute.
This is what he says: The second exercise on our compulsory program today is...I call it traps. Regular grip.

Oh goodness, were you okay?



Double bw clean!

[kerltee]

Oh goodness, were you okay?

i was fine thanks haha. i've never had to bail from jerks or snatches that go behind, so i didn't know how to go forward and compensated by just throwing myself backwards as fast as possible, making for a very dramatic ending :P

[SG55]

Oh goodness, were you okay?

I just wanted to say thank you. I have been squatting daily since October 2nd and could not be happier with the results. On Friday I got sick with a cold (and I am still sick) and at first I was frustrated, assuming that a few days of potential quality training would be lost. But I went to the gym anyway and had my most successful three days ever, setting big PRs in four major strength exercises. On Friday I successfully strict overhead pressed 170x8 and ATG back squatted 340x5. On Saturday I made an (easy) 305x1 front squat (not a PR, but definitely an improved baseline number), and then today I made a behind the neck push press PR of 220x7, a front squat PR of 290x6 followed by an (easy) 350x1 back squat for an improved baseline number. You could not be more correct about the idea that your body is lying to you. I have no idea how I pulled out all those PRs over the last three days while in cold sweat, with swollen lymph glands, a congested nose and a brutally sore throat. But I did.
