Yeah, it's one of those movements that really benefits from being drilled. I also think the logs at Northwich are also particularly nasty!

Weds 3rd Feb
Ill yesterday, (first day off work in about 3 years), so trying to keep it sensible.

Front squat
60kg*5
100kg*3,3
140kg*1
(belt on)
140kg*3
160kg*1
180kg*f - very close, just need to bit more confidence.
140kg*3
140kg*5

Deadlift
70kg*5
120kg*5
170kg*3
210kg*2,2,2

Quite happy. Fronts feel more stable. Deadlift perfunctory but should keep me in the groove.

745.0 kgs @ 125kgs Eq		Thursday 4th Feb

Push press (first rep cleaned)
60kg*5, 5
80kg*3
90kg*5
100kg*2,1,1 - ha!
A little jaded from yesterday's squats it seems, so adjusted the rest accordingly.

P/Jerk from rack
60kg*1,2
100*1,1,1,1,1,1

Circuit: pulldowns, rows and db inclines (closed palm like log) - 3 circuits

I need to build up some conditioning and address a few weak points so these are a necessity. Not much fun though.

745.0 kgs @ 125kgs Eq		Sat 6th Feb

Still pretty sore from weds and lost a couple of Kg from illness earlier this week.

Warmup
Muscle snatch 60kg*3/1 arm DB press for random reps - 3 circuits

Push press (first rep from floor)
60kg*5
80kg*3
100kg*2
105kg*1
110kg*1
Move to rack as my cleans are pisspoor and are making my buttocks hurt, but my press feels very strong.
100kg*1
112.5kg*1 = PB
Out of blue, but I'll take it.

Time for another conditioning circuit
Bodyweight dips, Hammer curls, Incline bench, seated row - 3 circuits.

Getting better at these I think.

Went home to go and put some bodyweight back on.

60kg*5
100kg*3
140kg*3

Rack pulls - aborted at 220 as my belt buckle snapped. Just about sums up my day.
