Morattigirl's Metal

[Big john]

thanks for your input guys, lol TT a mind condom?? :pfft:

The last time I tried that lift was up at CBC and feedback was I had no leg drive and my butt also came up off the bench, so I've been working on the leg drive of late and I'm pretty sure it's way better!

Just need to get the mind in the right place and not worry about the number like Steak said, just concentrate on smashing the god damn weight!!

smoke and mirrors! :twisted:

youve got the goods for a PB, that is fact just need to attack that fucking bar and bend it to your will.

like chad aichs says, its a battle between you and the metal.. Physicaly and mentaly

Lol, nope not the no offence part :pfft: um I think it was the "that seems light for you" but it made me want to push that lil bit more, so thanks :wink: . The weight actually felt heavy tbh, it's been a wee while since i've had 80 kilos on my back so yeah. I guess I just need to get used to the heavier weight again, also not having spotters around (or competent ones) plays a part on how heavy I go too

[bar-belle]

Wow weights in the am and cardio in the pm :shock:

You'll have to let me know some of your ab exercises....I'm getting bored with the ones I'm doing :grin:

[PeterDolan]

Glad to supply motivation. Start giving big john some piggy backs to and from the car, should get you used to some heavy weight :pfft:

[bigdogbob]

Your clean and press don't have to be from the floor, it's actually harder if you do them from the hang (above the knee) cos you don't generate as much pulling power as you do from the floor

Nice effort :clap:

[mike27]

some great weights going on ur shoulders! good shit!

[morattigirl]
