Events March 11th 07
Notes: UM OK, good, and well bad day. Only 3.5 hours sleep then hit the road., was a short session pressed for time about an hour and half total, had pain early in the elbow again, hit a few Prs and did well OK solid w/I then ended my day with yet another injury not sure where its going to go at this point the healing process but it aint the end.
- Log Clean & Push Press 10?
Worked up to a PR
235 x 1 that?s about it
OK so had darn elbow pain starting early around 150 lbs. Ive been stopping the cleans at 205 or so due to this but needed to be able to clean this for Iowa so pressed on. Missed the first clean juts HURT. I wanted it so just grabbed the darn thing quit thinking and popped it up there didn?t feel good wasn?t pretty but got it done and had one sorry lil press. Positive I got it cleaned and no shoulder pain. Negative only One friggin rep and Horrid elbow/forearm pain. But it?s a Log PR ill take that and run for today
2)Trap bar machine DL
Some warm ups
502 x 10 (easy some left)
600 x 3
Nothing to complain about here, was nice to get my hand on what we?ll be using in the comp. it?s a MUCH longer pull then I thought its only and inch or two from a full pull I thought it was more a partial. Nailed those 502 x 10 easy and fast and called it. Then figured id try 600 I was warm, got it for 3. So happy with this and surprised at how far the pull is Im sure O got that 600 conventional DL in me now
- farmers
Ive only touched these once wanted to try them I did these alone during rest periods of the DL
Just went up to 210 and did it for 50 feet twice 100 feet once with a u turn every 25.
This was nice to get my hands on and now know Ill be able to handle the load at Iowa may not be Fast but I know I can do it. Oh and turns suck ; )
3)Kegs
200, 225, 250, 300
Went well for doing these right after the DLing and farmers did this 3 times I think maybe four but I thin three. I need to get faster but went well, MUCH arm/elbow pain but went OK
- stones and the injury
I wanted to try them ive never loaded on so
175 easy this thing flew up as it should
240 grabbed that sucker arm still hurting and POP, load noise and all the sudden NO pain. Everyone thought I tore my short NOPE inside bicep tendon SNAPPED. That?s whats been hurting LOL so well Bi Bicep is now a unicep with the inner head being well its just hanging on for the ride flex and its Bunched up high But hey No pain have some nice bruising LOL
So that said just another speed bump on the way. Ill prob go get it checked out tomorrow the tendonm is clearly not attached its just Not there when I felx and you can see and feel the other side. Ill see what is said at the doca and how lifting feels this week and may just hold it out and prove that the bicep is an over rated muscle, im a strong man not a Bber, go do these darn things Bi or no bi
Real bugger/downer being only three weeks from the meet but hey just went and lifted some 60 lb bags of mortar for work around the house and have to say arm hasn?t felt this good in some time may only have on muscle belly attached but this No pain stuff is nice
Time for some food sleep and see what comes of this.
Thanks Ben for having us Out, Bobby for taking the trip with me bringing his DL machine and well being the bright spot with my injury constantly insuring me ?Your Done? ?Your Not Doing Iowa? THANKS BOBBY LOL him saying that may have been the sealing deal that I will do this meet : )
Stay strong all ill do the same
