x3 wobbly but didn't face plant!

x2,x2,x2,x2,x2,x2

I'm just happy I could hold myself up let alone do something resembling a press up. I videoed one set on my ipod:

GHR 4x5

Prowler +40kg over 20 mins

Long horn x12 lengths

Short horn x12 lengths

This is the same as last week, it felt SLIGHTLY easier than last week, at the end I felt like I was gonna have a heart attack :shock: felt soooo sick.

Happy with floor press coming along, I feel like my triceps are actually getting stronger. Blast chains are awesome. I could barely hold myself up on my knees not that long ago so this is a huge break through for me :grin:

Weight wise, I weighed in at 63.2kg this morning after breakfast so another 600gram loss this week. If I can weigh just under 63kg after breakfast that is me done for getting back into the 63kg class. I know my scales weigh me heavier than the house ones too but that's fine. All I've done food wise is not eat ANY crap. I have had NO junk at all for 4 weeks now, just veges, fruit,eggs and steak pretty much no cheat meals either.

The longer I go without eating any crap the more I don't ever want to eat any crap again.

Nice work Vee, good squatting form and depth in your other vid and hard core chain work. I need to come for a week and train at the house.

I was reaaaallly tired before I went to the house and I know I was being lazy with my deadlifting and didn't keep everything tight, it's my own fault :twisted:

Damn stupid pulled muscle just as my right side has gotten better! Tash said to me "Core work more core work" Yep soooo true! It's not as bad as the other side was it is defintely a muscle strain I reckon.

Novice comp in Le House tomorrow so I went in this evening, wasn't sure how I would go but thought I'd see what happens!

Oh come on Aucklands not that bad :grin:

I don't mind Auckland at all, I used to live there afterall! :pfft: Because I only go up there for work now it just becomes somewhere I go to work, which doesn't appeal :pfft:

AK - everyone loves to hate

LOL yeh I have to duck where I tell people I used to live in Auckland, they say things like "Oooo! Are you FROM there?" I'm like no, just lived there for 4 years.... :shock: :pfft:

guest appearance @ Just workout gym perhaps??

That would have been great, but work organised EVERYTHING from Breakfast to dinner and beyond, no time to duck out this time and get a sneaky lift in

I kinda knew it and sqwished my liftering in last week, will be in the house again today :grin: YAY!

Stuck to my plain eating the ENTIRE time which I'm glad about

SOOOoooo tired, didn't realise till I had to drag myself through the second round of squats then accessories. Got home from Auckland last night, worked the last 6 days straight and travelling has made Vee tired! Even wrote HTFU and LIFT! In my journal to inspire me.

Squats were good, felt a little grinding, I videoed all of them and they looked OK depth wise.

62kg this morning, a 900 gram loss this week :shock: :shifty:

[teamfatboy]

Well done Vee - ain't it a PITA when lifting has to give way to life ?

Great for sticking to your eating plan... all helps with Wilks Points :nod:

Yep damn life trying to get in the way of the liftering :evil:

I'm actually amazed how I have managed to get back down into my weight class, I did try before the BBro but obviously it didn't work I'm not doing anything different to what I did then :shrug: weird. Just.need.to.stay.here!

Evaluation

SQUAT

My left knee is coming in and head coming down out of the hole, in the 77.5 and the 80, I got down into and out of the hole then on the way back back up got stapled. In the 72.5 and 75 I managed to correct it and get back up but not with the other weight :twisted:

I need to work on this more. I know what is going wrong I need to be more aware when it's happening and fix it! Concentration was terrible tonight, felt like crap, sometimes when you feel like crap lifting is good though! :doh:

BENCH

Happier with this, 50kg TNG thought I had a 52.5kg TNG in me but nope not today. Good to get paused at CDs?......

DEADLIFT

Had The Beast and Zane coaching me through this. They got me to alter my set up and 100 FLEW UP :shock: I had to check the weight SERIOUSLY I thought it had been mis-loaded it was easier than the 60 :shock:

Got the 110 good, I had hitched it at BBro and got red lighted, the 115 couldn't quite lock it out, but it flew up too like it was nothing :shock:

I'm liking this new set up! Thanks guys! :grin:

ENDURO BAR

I had one of these for the first time this evening between the squat and bench. They are peanuts with a TEENY bit of caramel, just enough to stick it together then covered in chocolate =P~ REALLY good for skills and would be great for comps too. There's something like 450 calories in one- I think this is pretty much from all the peanuts- there is THAT MANY IN THERE! This has the Vee seal of approval :pfft:

I have learnt alot from last night, thanks everybody for helping,spotting/loading/yelling at me 8)

[M.T]

Gettins stronger methinks Vee :nod:

nice work comrade

[teamfatboy]

I agree with MT - I think you are getting stronger! A touch-n-go PB is still good for a skills day.

Same with the Deads and Squats - better to learn these things now with weeks to lock in the fine-tuning....

And when you've had a chance to de-load, and under comp conditions with everyone willing you to succeed.... I foresee good things !

[startinfromscratch]

marathon not a sprint 8)

still a good result eh Vee!

[tinytraps]

That is a nice skills test miss. Awesome work vee keep up the good work!

[bar-belle]

Sounds like it's all coming together nicely Vee...good work on your PB bench awesome!
