Gooooooooood… he said in his best evil scientist voice.
Been lurking this log for a while waiting for it to deliver on the thread title. We’re pretty close on OHP strength, and I too covet a 100kg press. Keep making progress! Might be time to start injecting your eggs directly into the deltoids.
lol

Managed to nearly dislocate my pinky finger later on thursday, so I rested for two days. feels fine now.

Thanks for the video on how to row. Il try that on my next back day.
Nice powercleaning by the way. Ive been doing those to get the weight up when Im doing overhead presses. Although Im not sure If im doing the right technique. Im up to 3 x 60kg with my overhead pressing… so if I was you I would watch out, bird is coming to town!!

I’m such a walking cliche: Black T-shirt, camo shorts, pickup truck, loud thrash metal, off to the gym to lift weights and bro-out
What a packed weekend. Grandma down, extended family round, my graduation ceremony, FUCKING HEAD COLD (of course)
Still suffering:
Deadlift 195kg 1x6 - could hardly lockout this, wouldn’t have passed in a comp. no finger/grip strength.

Squat 125kg x10, 130kg x10, 135kg x10, 135kg x10, 140kg x10, 145kg x10 - nearly died!

took forever today, not enough sleep or food
agh, still not enough food, and an evening session after sitting down all day.
Squats: 145kg x8, 160kg x3, 175kg x3, 185kg x1, 145kg x10, 125kg x10
October has been a shitastic month for training, eating and weightloss so far.
Not been able to train first thing - no fasted trained state for fat loss
Irregular sessions and bullshit illnesses - no progression
Not enough average daily calories - poor recovery. doesn’t help that I simply dont get hungry while ketogenic dieting. I have worked fasted (landscaping) through to 6pm on numerous occasions without the merest hint of a rumble from my stomach.
ANYWAY. fuck this shit. I shed 5kgs in september like a pair of socks, going to do the same before the end of November. Will weigh myself tomorrow morning.
Finally, a fasted session:
Clean and press, worked up to 76kg and 80kg x1 for not too much trouble
65kg 2x5, 72.5kg 2x2
Dips, Pullups - hooked a tricep bar over the neutral grip pullup bar, made a good fat grip pullup bar
Squats: 105kg x20 - building my stamina back up
Tired this morning. Didn’t end up going as heavy as I wanted, but the intensity was still there.
Circuit x 5
Hang Power clean 70kg x3
DB row 62.5kg x8
Dips x8
Deadlifts:
165kg x30 in 10mins - was really struggling on these until I realised that I was doing Clean-pulls instead of deadlifts, then it was easy.
I was also making sure that I held the lockout for 2 secs. The problem I have is that my reps are pretty fast, and I was putting the bar down as soon as I got it up, negating any strength development in the lockout.
Shrugs (working on lockout) and curls
I weighed 106kg this morning (after a shit), which is a lot less than the 125kg that I weighed back before september.
