    You could also get adipowers or risto, vs athletics etc. online.

    If the Pendlay's will be in soon then you can always hold off.

    I'd get any of those if I were you. All three are great. Depends on how serious you'd like to get. I have the Nikes FYI.
    Thanks for your thoughts guys. I have narrow feet so it's going to be either adidas or pendlay. The PPII's I can get for around 100 here. I'm not necessarily convinced the extra for the adipowers is worth it, especially at my level... and I'm so mad I missed the half off sale on the pendlays!! I may email them to ask when they're getting the new ones in and if it's going to be a wait just go for the ppii's.

    Fail Workout

    So I should have taken yesterday off. I was due for a day off. But nooooooo. I went in and started warming up for snatches with bodyweight jump squats and it became very apparent very fast that my left knee is angry with me swelling, heat and clicking. Fuk. I am icing it as I type.

    I bailed on snatches, went to try to bench instead, and ended up doing more damage to my left lat. It had been feeling ok but still a bit nagging ever since I did whatever to it at the beginning of the week, and I thought I could ignore it but now it is on fire.

    Pretty mad at myself for being stupid.

    Happy NY to you too doll, and to all of you. Thanks for hanging out in here

    If you here back from them on whether they are going to be back in stock anytime soon keep me up to date. I wish I would have got a pair half off, because that is a crazy good deal.

    Goodluck with those nagging injuries. Take a day or two off to work them out. If you don't have knee sleeves, I would get an ace bandage and wrap that knee during your training.

    MD Canada ended up putting their 2011 pendlays on a good sale so I just went for it and ordered a pair of those.

    Thanks. Yeah, with my pre-existing pathology I should really have started wrapping before moving into full cleans. Seeking the Oly forum's feedback on whether to do ace bandages or just bite the bullet and get a pair of legit wraps now.

    Random Workout

    Took New Year's off to give myself some time to recover. Went in for kind of an odd workout yesterday to do stuff that didn't bother my lat or knees.

    Pre-W/O:
    5 mile cardio
    foam rolling
    quad/hammy/piri stretching

    Rack Jerks
    Have to keep weight conservative since I can't drop them. So annoying that there aren't any bumpers.
    45 x6 x3
    50 x6
    55 x6
    60 x6 as singles

    Deadlift
    Easy.
    90 x5
    110 x3
    135 x1

    Chins
    bw assisted x10 x3

    Bi Curl/Tri PD Superset
    40 x6 x3 curls
    25 x8 x3 PDs

    Hanging Leg Raises
    bw x10 x3

    Knees feeling better today. May go for that 90 bench tonight depending on how my back feels.

    good looking workout and I am almost at the point where I want to just guide them down and let them drop anyway haha.

    I was also contemplating for the past 2 months that when I have some spare change I am going to buy 2 bumper plates and bring them in with me and just use smaller weights on the outside so the only thing hitting when being dropped are the bumpers.

    Couple of pendlay encon v2's or something locally from fitnesstown or whatever it's called.
    the latest and greatest in training...or whatever.

    I like my 2011 Pendlays a lot. I doubt you will be disappointed. I'm going to guess the Olympic forum will say use ace bandages under some knee sleeves. What legit wraps were you thinking of? I hope you weren't thinking of powerlifting knee wraps because they aren't meant to be worn for knee health.

    Some simple knee sleeves if you don't wanna pay for rehbands and some ace bandages will go a long way.

    Tommy Kono TK knee bands.. they are awesome but if you want more support and a little aid inzer makes a few different models the TK will not add to your lifts

    Couple of pendlay encon v2's or something locally from fitnesstown or whatever it's called.
    Bad news - there's a group of us who would have done similar, but we're friends with some of the trainers (so we get away with murder for the most part) and they've let us know in no uncertain terms that we wouldn't be allowed to drop them. They're worried about the fact that it's on the third floor and the pool underneath. Strong design

    Some simple knee sleeves if you don't wanna pay for rehbands and some ace bandages will go a long way.

    lol obvi I have no idea what I am talking about. You guys got it in one. I'll just ask here next time. I wrapped with Ace bandages tonight and a longer sock over them and felt a lot more stable and confident - full cleaned 65 as working weight and ATG front squat felt like cake. Will look into sleeves.

    There actually is a crossfit/oly gym on Hornby. It's called Studeo 55 but pricey @ $100/month.

    They have a bunch of on-site stuff though like chiro and physio. But not sure if you get access or it's extra ontop of the membership.

    Edit: they have 4 lifting platforms and are getting 4 more.

    Definitely tempting deposits the price, provided they don't have fuxking crossfit going 24/7.

    Not open Sundays either meh.

    I just saw the new Pendlays too. Grr. Can't believe they were $65 with free shipping. Limited selection over here - Adidas and Nikes so expensive. Looking at the white Do-Wins. Like the look of Reebok Olys but reckon they won't take much. Don't like the colour of the girls Pendlays at all.

    The ones I ordered are black - will post pics when I get them. I think the Reeboks are more meant for crossfit, not serious lifters.

    There's a lot of knowledgable peeps on here, but the Olympic forum can be very slow.
