Sounds like you are prepping for the TSC again. I will start training for the April 5 TSC in earnest after the Arnold Pump and Run on March 2. |

nice PR's guys, Dan those KB snatches are impressive.
Got a couple of bench PR's (these don't happen very often for me)
Raw bench - 335x1
Shirted bench - 405x1 (i've done this before, but never this smooth or easily, probably had another 20-30lbs in the tank)

when it comes to weighted chins, I never really could progress on these and years ago I'd just throw a 10 (or 2) on the belt and hit about 4-5 to failure, and never did progress.
since adding weighted chins 6-months (or more) ago the same thing happens, but this time I did something differant, if I failed at a target rep, I'd take off the belt and add a plate, and go for 1,(only taking the time to add a plate) this has worked splended so far........
my last heavy workout was-
22lbs x4, x4 (max) add 5lbs (27)x3/4, first time I've faild a rep in this method, that was in dec.
2/13/08-
chins, 22lbsx4 (add 2.75) 24.75x1, (add 2.75) 27.5x1 (max effort)
no rest......
barbell curls 95x5 strict
no rest......
barbell wrist curls 95x9, x1
again only breaks were taking off belt adding plates, and I did regrip the barbell after curls, I did the wrist curls with my lower arms resting on my thighs, standing up......
even my damn pecs have (what the experts call) DOMS today, I always get it in my mid-section from max effort chins though!!!! |

That's a very interesting approach to weighted chins Luke, adding weight rather than dropping weight.
I have done some great workouts with weighted pullups and chinups, doing a progression of single reps to max, then banging out one final set at bodyweight. After getting that weight off, bodyweight reps seemed easy.
It is interesting how we all have our strengths and weaknesses. I've done an 82.5 lb. weighted pullup and a 100 lb. chinup but struggle in the strengh department with many lifts.
Keep pulling! |

198x1 powerclean, no rest.......
shouldered 200lb sandbag x2 ea. shoulder
I tried to shoulder the bag for reps without putting it down, I've only succeded that once sofar FRESH, so this will be a goal. and this was the 3rd recent session I've trained with that bag in years!!!

continental clean (description for Tim, make first and second pull like a powerclean, but rest the bar on mid-section, then make a 3rd pull and catch it on the shoulders).
no belt, plus I weigh 185 so no real gut eithier.
241x1 PR, miss, x1 (very short rests, about 90sec.?)
no rest, powerclean 185x6
who knows how many more powercleans I could have done (several more at least)? it only took 5years about to drill powercleans with 185 and feel comfy!!!
