I don’t post much (or at all really), but I finally hit 90kg in the Snatch at training last night [b]+4kg[\b] and had to tell someone. Plus I hit 137.5kg in the Front Squat [b]+7.5kg[\b]
This is week 10 of a 12 week contest prep and so far it’s going great, I can’t wait for the comp.
I forgot to add, I lift in the 69kg class and these were done at a bodyweight of about 70kg.
And I clearly can’t work out how to bold properly.
4 PR’s from this weekend at the 2009 USAPL Raw Nationals:
Squat: 250kg / 55lbs (PR +16lbs)
Bench: 172.5kg / 380lbs (PR +10lbs)
DL: 282.5kg / 623lbs (PR +3lbs)
Total: 705kg / 1554lbs (PR +29lbs)

Nice work Modi.
Bench 315 5x6 PR + 1 rep per set
Good to see (almost) everyone using the Bold function for what it was inteded for!
Nice work. Any PR on a National platform is a big fuggin deal! 4 PR’s is huge.
Looks to me like had you been a little more aggressive out of the hole you may have hit that 3rd squat. How did it feel? You looked kind of tentative.

Sick bastard. That’s amazing. Well done!!
Was your squat down a bit since Smolov?
Last week at CA State Games
Squat 507 +2 lb PR
Deadlift 507 +12 lb PR
1 board bench press against bands-paused - 515x1-+20lb PR from last week
elbows out extensions- 140’s x 12 - +2 rep PR from last week
Doing 5/3/1. First cycle and really enjoying the structure of rep/sets/%1RM. Will start posting every 4th week of the 3rd week cycle if that makes sense.
All of these are PR’s in rep and weight for Box Squats. Box squats are a tad high. Have videos will post later for the visually impaired. Would normally do 1 rep at these percentages of 1RM.
[3305], [3753], [420*1], Felt good and tried to push it and couldn’t get out of hole with 455. Videos really point out flaws. Got a some work to do but here are my vids.
7 29 Box Squat 420x1 - YouTube (420)
7 29 Box Squat 375x3 - YouTube (375)
7 29 Box Squat 330x5 - YouTube (330)
Zercher lift from knees
400x1 (+15 lbs)
Dead Incline Bench (from chest)
225x1x2 sets (+5 lbs)
This is a volume PR. I was supposed to do a 5x6 with 475 on deadlift, but I didn’t have the energy yesterday and ended up breaking it up.
my sets ended up looking like this:
475 pound deadlift x 6, 6, 4, 4, 4, 3, 3 (with a belt and straps)
For a grand total of 30 reps at about 85% of my max. PR + 5 pounds and 5 reps
not an overall PR but a post injury one.
squat 655x1- felt strong
210 kg x 10 (+ 10 kg PB)
two weeks ago i hit a 455 dl. yesterday, i hit a 475lb dl. today, i am hurting =)
in two weeks ill get video because, “video or it didnt happen”
Seated Overhead Pin press from chin
200x1 (+5lbs)
Sumo Rack pull (6" below knee)
505x1 (+40lbs)
This is one I didn’t lock out. I did one after this that I DID lock out.
445x5 (+20lbs)
