12/11
clean + push press 135x1,155x1,175x1,195x1,225x10x1 rep
sldl 225x20

Picked one exercise and ran with it. Shoulders are feeling great. Threw in the stiff deads for kicks at the end.

great C&P

nice work.

big squats too

785

Harry you could pull and press 225 for 10 reps in one set. And Kevin you’re like 80 lbs lighter then me and can clean 225. I’m not worthy. But thanks for the encouragement.

x2 I envy the coordination it takes to do those properly.

787

I’m late to the game (as usual) 225 clean and press for 10 reps… Awsome!!

788

Joe,I’m sure my cleans are not the most coordinated looking things. But the bar gets from the floor to over my head somehow.

Wilson,I think you misread my workout. I did 10 sets of 1 rep with 225. I wish I could clean and press 225 for 10 straight reps. But thanks for thinking I was strong enough to do that.

Yep, I dont read worth a crap… Must be the eastern NC education! 10 sets of 225x1 still blows me away. pretty damn sweet.

Good job in here Steve. When you write it like 225x10x1 looks like 1 set of 10. Try 225x1x10.

791

Just need some cold weather and you’re all invited over.

It orginally was 48 x 36 but the last 12 feet dove 10 inches. So this year its only 36 x 36. Next year I’ll get the neighbors lazer level and some loam and hopefully it’ll be 52 x 36.

12/13
1a.front squat 275 5x5
1b.chins/pullups 5 sets
2a.bb rows 275 5x5
2b.bench 135x5,185x5,225x5,275x5,315x5

This is a ‘I don’t know what to do’ workout. Shoulders are feeling great.

12/14

Just wanted to get some blood flowing. Everything was very light.

3 sets db swings
3 sets front squats
3 sets db clean and press
10 chinups

795

12/15
fat bar deads 105x2,195x2,285x2,375x2,465x2,515x0

Pulled something in my right lat with 515 on the way up so I put it down real quick. Never felt anything like that before.

796

Probably the wise course to let that 515 go. Sometimes you just aren’t quite right and no point in doing something that might cost you training time.

797

Thanks Joe. I’m getting so old.

12/18
squats 135x5,225x5,325x5,375x5,425x5,250x5x10 reps

Not yet, but soon.
And yes, very soild work. Are you twisting any when you do deads?

800

Thanks Big Jim. Just keep using it until it breaks right?

Harry, you’re a freak of nature. Must be all of your clean living. And I don’t think I twist when I pull. But I’ll try and make a mental note to watch for any odd movements.

I found this old article and thought it deserved another look for some of us.
