typing two min at a time

behind the neck shoulder press 155/5 175/5 195/5
push press 135/3 165/3/3
side lateral super set with face pulls 3sets of 8
20 min interval on stationary bike 2min hard 2 min recovery I'm typing on the recovery, funny how these two min go so much faster than the other two. Short workout tonight we may have to do strongman training on Saturday rather than Sunday (crap got to pedal hard again). Man my Olympic lifts look bad but that's only because my speed sucks my flexibility sucks and my tecnique sucks I could lift more but I would probably hurt myself and that would suck to Done time to make dinner and wait for trick or treaters I hope I don't get to many as the leftovers are for me

this weeks training

So no strongman training last week, but I did put in some long days getting the last of the fire wood cut. Last week was a deload week for me I kept the main exercises @ 60 to 70% for sets of five and did what ever for the rest of the workouts. I did find out that my wrist is still not 100% as I moved my hands out to my comp grip for the bench and even though I only did 70% of my best raw bench I hurt for two days after. Today we did farmers walk the video shows our best walks 440 for Steve 500 for me and 540 for Dallas. We all did 2 rounds on the coan's wheel, it's about 325 in our arms today was more about endurance than weight. we also did thick bar deadlifts 2 1/2" bar and forward hold with the 56 lbs weight. It was 5 degrees c outside today which was great for training. I also did cardio in the morning 18 min of interval and 25 min at a steady pace. Now that the firewood is done I'm going to start doing more cardio. I'm also going to lean out a bit more.

strongman Saturday

no video today just never thought of it
started of with band dead lifts dbl minis 50@ bottom 200@ the top worked up to a bar weight of 365 then we went outside and pulled some reps with the car. Sean and Steve didn't manage to get it but they are soooo close. Dallas and I move on to some log lifts and then a few single with a beer keg with the ball bearings and water it is tougher than a person would think. lastly we did a truck and trailer pull plus 600 lbs. Sean came up 15' short the rest of got a full 100' pull and one pull was all we had. all and all another great training day. next weekend is off for us. I scored about 600 lbs of lead weights from a tire shop. so I'll be making a 60 lbs insert for our next stone next weekend all so I've got a implement made up for a duck walk or power stairs I'll fill it with lead as well, it should be very heavy. :-)

tomorrows workout today

to much to do after work tomorrow and we are going to the theatre in the evening, so I trained today.

Happy days

bench 185/3 225/3 280/3 300/3 315/2
3 board 315/6 335/6 355/6
pwr snatch hang above 95/3 135/3 145/3 (155/3 from the floor)
snatch pull 185/3/2
cable rows 3 sets of 10
fat bar over head extensions + curls 3 sets of 10
Funny how our mind plays games when I took 225 out I expected my wrist to hurt and it did when I was done the set it occured to me that it was stiff but it didn't hurt 280 went pain free. the snatch work really sucked I haven't competed since 1999 and I rarely work them for more than a few weeks at a time because there is usually a power lifting meet around the corner. seeing as I have no meet for a while I'm going to included them for a while as my speed absolutely sucks

Sunday

Sundays training first vid is of Sean smoking 540 super yoke Steve went just before him and had a good time which seemed to have fired Sean up. next is me doing 600 super yoke, then Dallas with 700 again doing much better than his last attempt at it a few weeks ago. Last is Steve putting up our new 250 lbs stone, I couldn't even stand up with. We also did some dead lifts in between the yoke and the stones Dallas and I lifting the car, and Steve and Sean dead lifting the farmers walk implements they both pulled 440 lbs ,this was a record for Sean and it was a grinder but he got it.
