[QUOTE=Scott Jenkins;1101213]Not had much time last few days Nik but just caught up with your log. Take care of that back and avoid anything that hurts it, remember the difference between injury pain and workout pain.

Other than that some great work, the 30 muscle ups for time at pr speed, hspu are strong right now. When Rob had a hip flexor/back problem last month he was smashing muscle ups strict and hspu strict constant and has got to be very competitive at them now so just focus more on the stuff that does not niggle you.[/QUOTE]

Will do and thans Scott, it is getting on my nerves and hard to train at the moment. I feel like a slacker at the moment.

daily squat
135lbs x1
185lbs x1
235lbs x1
285lbs x1
330lbs(145k) xfxfxf

I was bound and determined to get 330 for 1 today but I could not get it. Got stuck out of the hole every time. I told myself that I'd get the 330 and not squat again till Monday. looks like my body has other plans.

I just need to heal up and not let this squat set back rattle me any more. Hard thing is it was the only heavy thing I could do. I have not dead lifted, snatched, cleaned in almost two weeks.

I can saw i gave it all I had today so far, come on press don't fail me today!

Re: Nik
 

3:00 break

light dead lift

135lbs x3
185lbs x3
235lbs(106k) x3
235lbs x3
235lbs x3

I told myself that I was going to try to hit 225lbs, but 235 was easier to put on the bar. The reps were solid and perfect reps. I did not want to make a mistake with my back. This was ok.

I felt like I could have done more but I stayed here for safty. Happy enough.

Re: Nik
 

Nice work getting the 12 rounds Nik, on the GTOH with the plate I got some big tips, noticed a lot of people making them harder for themselves. First go sumo stance, real wide. Next touch the plate when it is aiming directly down onto the thin bottom edge, I know this is obvious as its quickest but again I see loads of people touching the big side of the plate to the ground.

Right and the reason for telling you as you said they can irritate your back. When I do them I squat keeping my back more upright so not bending over, its more efficient and takes your lower back out of the exercise.

Thanks Scott. I did the G2OH close to what you said. I did sumo, and just about tuched the edge, it was not straight up and down but not flat either. I don't know if I bent my legs, I think I did because I used a big hip pop to helpt it up and ease the back.
