RM: No, it would just be awesome to do that kind of weight, lol. I will be looking for a 1245 total though, that will put me at 420/295/530. Gotta aim high! That reminds me, will you be interested in doing that meet?[/quote]
Definitly sounds like it would be a lot of fun, i just need to check as to when all that paperwork and registering stuff is due. Right now i have 1200 in gym lifts so that would be pretty cool if i could get close to that in a meet. [/quote]
You still have a few months, im positive you could get that total in a meet.
I got 3 or 4 guys possibly going with me. It really sucks being by yourself at a meet, so I could help out with anything you need, just let me know.[/quote]
Sounds good, I’ve only ever been to 3 meets, they were all run by the APA and went pretty smoothly.
It would be cool to have a group though.

Did some other assistance stuff, nothing important enough to write down. But I did throw 44’ in a meet, which is a huge personal record, 3 feet 6 inches to be exact.

Chain bench
135x5
135x5- 1 chain per side
135x5- 2 chains per side
135x5- 3 chains per side
135x5- 4 chains per side
185x1
225x1
255x1
265x0
Had 4 chains per side on every set after 135. The 265 set felt very very heavy, im gonna take a shot in the dark and say it was 325 at the top, and 295 at the bottom. When I tried 315 it didnt feel anywhere near as heavy as todays sets…
And I know ive been benching alot, thats cause my coach wants me to do something everyday. And theres no way im squatting or deadlifting every other day, haha.
4-14-10
Power clean:
135x5
155x5
185x5
225x5- +1 rep
Ill be sticking with 185 from now on. My form was shit with 225, and I was pretty slow. I gotta get alot more speed and explosivness and not worry about the weight im moving. I think 5x5 is a good start.
Bench: used a 35 lb bar, thats why the numbers are weird/
125x5
175x5
215x5
265x2
285x1
305x1
Had my first meet on tuesday. Took 1st in shot and disk against three teams, shot was 41’ 8", disk was 117’ which was a PR. I was very unhappy with shot, I wanted 45’… I dont know what happened. Im thinking its all the bench pressin that’s wearin me down so much.
I will squat tomorrow or saturday and possibly call it for the week.

Nice bench, is that a PR?
Shot and disc seem to be coming along nicely. When i threw i never noticed lifting having an effect, but then again in hs i had one meet over 40’… haha.
Thanks man, no it wasnt a PR, I did 315 a month or so ago.
When I deadlift heavy it really effects my throwing, Ill usually get 3 or 4 feet less then when im fresh. Im not too sure on bench, but I know doing 105 pushups (soon to go up in reps), 200 situps and a 1 mile run before every practice is definitly messing me up…

Finished with plate pinches. Held 2 fives and switched hands every minute, pretty tuff stuff. Deadlifts were cool. Took me like 10 fucking seconds to lock out the 2nd rep of 500…
Did you video the deadlifts!!? Awesome work freak!!

Chain bench:
barx10
135x5 +1 chain per side
155x5 +2 chain per side
205x3 +3 chain per side

Not really sure of the weight, but my guess is 40-50 pounds of chain at lockout.
Floor press:
135x6
185x6
205x6
It’s pretty fun using chains, the new trainer at my school brought some legitamite ones in, there much easier to use then a few dozen small rusty ones. My ass is coming off the bench a wee bit, but it’s not as bad as it looks.
Shot is coming along nice, almost every throw is 41-42’, opposed to high 30’s a few weeks ago. Not a huge improvement, but its something. That’s my trainin for the week, I have 2 meets comin up, one on saturday and tuesday. Might try and squeeze in a mixed squat and DL session wednesday… but it probably wont happen. That is all!

85’s x 9- PR of some sort.
BB bench, goin for speed:
135x5
205x5
185x5
Called it there, want to be able to recover enough and get a good throw session in tomorrow. Would have done power cleans or deadlifts, but I fell on my knee during disk and didnt want to risk injuring it more.
Fouled on a 45’ throw at my last meet… really pissed about that. The 2 throws before were both 41’, and not enough to get me in 1st place against a team (It was a quad meet, took 1st and two 2nd places).
Not sure if I wrote it before, but im pretty set on doing a push/pull meet on June 5th. If im able to get in enough DL sessions before the meet, I think I could get 290/540.

It was a quick session. The 550 was very easy, def could have gotten 585.

Hip snatch: 95x2x5
Not trying to kill myself in the gym, gotta stay somewhat fresh for training.
Knee has been bothering me a bit. I was doing spin and landed very weird, now ill just be standing there and my knee will hyper-extend for no reason. So I wont be squatting again, probably till the end of the season (3 weeks) and wont be deadlifting for another week. Just want to play it safe with this one.

Reverse band bench:
135x5
225x5
245x5

Used a pair of light bands. The weight was fully deloaded at about 3/4 of the way up, so im gonna assume the bands took off 30 pounds at the bottom.
Not much to talk about… but I will be back in full swing once the season is over.
Did 15 dips today, bitches.

Seasons almost over. Cant wait to start squats and deadlifts again!
your strength is coming on nicely mate! once you get squatting and deadlifting again, you will have a decent total in you… got your eye on any powerlifting comps?
