pumping iron remake

had a good pump today in training cant do anything fun due to being a complete retard and not being able to use a stairs properly !!! think need to get a lift for the gaff ?? any chance or sorting that out clem ???

todays session
military press sets of 3 40,40, 45, 50, 55, 60
dumbell chest supported row 3 sets 12 at 20 i think ??
one arm dumbell shoulder press 20x8, 24x4, 28x2, 22x10x3
one arm dumbell row strict 3 sets 10 at 24s
fat bar curls 5 sets 2 and one set of 5
various shoulder health/ injury prevention (stuupid phrase)to undo my pumping the guns and getting the cannons in order

got a good pump going but realistically it achieved nothing other than getting me away from the chicago deluxe pool set for a few hours

now for my rant about injury prevention read this somewhere cant remember where but basically i didnt come up with it anyway injury prevention meaning exercise that is done to prevent injury ??? i do believe, so what exercises do you do to cause injury ???? none i would imagine other than jerk lunges insert sean osullivan >>>>>>> so injury preventuon kinda dumb phrase ........

on a good note byrdie was flying today clean and jerking, clean front squat jerking, double clean and jerking his little heart out.

also good to see sull back from his much needed rest while the search for my new knee goes on and on and on, will try to train tomorrow i know i shouldnt but one day of curls and shite is enough for me

greetings

I have decided to put a blog together to vent my fury and thoughts on all topics and report my weightlifting training. Hope showing my training can provide some insights into the way I train for others and also when I see it I hope I can spot the glaring mistakes I am making.

wow i weally weally am bored

First post of my blog

saturday 28th november
am session
chasing pike kids out of the gym

pm session
snatch heavy 5 singles
jerk heavy close to max then back down for 2 trebles and 2 doubles

how the pm session went
snatch could not do it due to injuring my knee walking down a stairs dont ask :(

jerk 50 for a few, 80 for a few, 90 for 1, 100 for 1, 110 for 1, 115 for one, 120 for one, 122.5 pb equalling and then at long last a pb in the jerk 125 happy days
110 for treble missed the last one due to being an ass, 110 for a treble easy enough

few back extensions bodyweight and a few with 10kg

Anyone got a spare knee I have spent the last few months looking after my right one and finally getting back to the full lifts and then bam i hurt my left one walking downstairs
