Like the new avatar. Training is looking solid. Hope your son has a good tournament.
Thanks Joe and ECO…ECO I’ll let you know on the tourney…His future college coach will be there watching him ( and others) all day. He confessed he is a little nervous about that. But if he just settles into his game he will be fine…

Great work in here, OG!
Lotta work there, OG. Fortunately, you did enough for me too.
Good times for your son. These are magical times. I remember being recruited, signing and my first year there. It was all kind of surreal.
Thanks guys…well the tournament went well. The team my son played on went 3-0 and he scored some goals and had boatload of assists. The fields were slick and it was windy and chilly! His future coach watched a half of all 3 games and let my son know he was happy with his performance…stress levels are dropping!!

You probably say somewhere in here what percentages you use for your 6/4/2, but I don’t have the patience to look it up. So what percentages are you using?

Carl- I took the 5/3/1 percentages and dropped them another 7-10% when I started. Now my weights are back up to where I was at with 5/3/1. And I am hoping to head further north soon…
6/4/2 MP day
6x110, 6x125, 10x140 (rep PR) I was pleased with this. Having squatted yesterday I was low on energy but I needed to do a back to back because my weekend schedule is going to be f’d up so this should keep to my 3 a week lifts.

Took my dogs out in the woods where there is a tree farm and ofcourse the only time I dont have my bow I see a nice buck coming out of the edge of the trees…life is so cruel…dogs got a whiff and the chase was on!
Peace
Great training OG. How many deer do you usually get a year? Tons of them around my place.

try and take 1 buck and 1 doe. I dont get out enough to do more…and last year I got zippo!! heading out this Sat Am around 4 with two friends…unfortunately for me its my turn to push. Hopefully we get something…
My cousin’s husband is on a 15 day Elk hunt in Eastern Oregon. The guide packs them in on horses, and brings them water every 4 days or so and checks on them. No cell service, no roads, no medevac if something happens. They brought a defibulator just in case. I wish I could have gone.
Hunting! That’ll up your T! Wish I had someplace to hunt around here. Only 1 week of rifle season, though. I miss GA. Rifle season lasts forever.
Jack, I hope they don’t get drunk and decide to start playing with the defib.

Strick, I think that is a very legitimate concern. 
Hope you bag a big one this weekend OG.(a deer not a chubby girl)
Thanks Steve…me too!! Shot for about 1/2 hour last night in low light and the checked my equipment so I am good to go.
Hang Cleans- first time I have tried these so its a big learning curve for an old(dumb) goat!
Did lots of sets of 6-10reps with 95lbs…wasn’t keeping track, just trying to start to learn the movement. Worked on it for about 20 minutes and was getting tired so I moved on.
Problem: bar speed is way too slow ( no power) and my catch is too rigid.
Solution: Do more of this.
Whip Snatch
3x10x85
Rev, BB Lunges
3x8sidex125
Power Curls

Peace
No deer … 1 shot by my friend he said he missed high over the shoulder…( practice more you dope)!! Go out again next Sat and possibly Sunday. Good stuff…great reason to get up early and freeze your arse off in the dark!!
CGBP
6x160, 6x185, 11x210
3x3x225, 2x2x235 a little extra volume because I had the time.

Great looking CGB, OG. 5 extra sets at weights above your money set is a little extra volume? lol Good stuff.
Wait…you hunt deer in Mass.? First I find out that there are actually woods there. And now that you have and can hunt deer!? I didn’t think you guys could even own so much as a pointy stick. Your shattering all of my delusions.
I see this whip snatch, but dont know what it is, how does it work?
Strick- You are right we are not allowed to own pointy objects in taxachusetts. So we just throw rocks…it does make hunting more of a challenege!
UN- hope all is well with you thanks for dropping by. Whip snatch you simply hold the bar at mid thigh with a snatch grip , give a little pop with your knees and whip the bar up overhead. If you go to JWillys thread he did a vid of it not too long ago.
5 minutes bike
