PRs galore!!!!!!!

Deloading is going well cause I bagged me 3 PRs in one session!!! Not only that I bumped into an competitive 64kg Oly lifter, who was also on the Australian Olympic weightlifting comimtee and coach! He thinks I've done well and he is interested in coaching me for competition, once I get the nececassary tools into place, 315x5 full front squat, 440+lbs full back squat, 280+lb clean and jerk and bodyweight snatch etc
But DOH - I didn't have the camera there!!!

I'm feeling real good right now, I expect more PRs next week!

PRs as follows

1) Clean Grip Hang PowerSnatch 115lbs x 2 - very easy and fast!
I think I could have done 135lbs

2) Powerclean 225lbs x1 It was a blur - caught with straight legs!
Up 15lbs from a month ago.

3) CleanGrip Romanian Deadlifts onto Toes - 240 2x6

Oly Lifts

Rest - 2-3mins

Well I started with lots of singles/doubles warmup sets in the hang power clean (sometiems with a front squat and power jerk), hang cleangrip powersnatch and hang powersnatch - 45lbs, 65, 95, 115

Clean Grip Hang PowerSnatch 115lbs x 2 WOot New PR!!
Very easy and fast!! I think I could have done 135lbs with this!

Few power snatches from hang and floor with 115lbs

Hang Power clean - 135x2, 155x2, 175x1
Powerclean - 155x1, 175x1, 185x1, 205x1, rested 4 mins then
225x1 caught with straight legs! WOot New PR!!
235xMISS - dropped to floor - only pulled to sternum

Just before the 205lb power clean single, that oly lifter guy,. asked about my shoes, where I got em etc, then he told me a bit about himself. I asked him to check my form on the 205lb single, and he said it was good. Then I slapped on 2x10lbs plates, and told him this will be a PR for me. It felt so easy, I mean it was blur, and It just exploded up and racked with very minimal leg bend!!! Very fast! Dang but no video to capture the moment :(

He told me to slap on an extra 5lb plates on each side, but after chatting with him, I was cold and miss it bad and drooped it to the floor :)
Still I'm very happy!

Is that burwood? or Maroubra? or somewhere else?

i seriously think you should consider one on one training with competing in mind.

you then can compete against me......you will have to gain a few kilos.


Shit i better start training the oly lifts again!
 
nice going man, but what really strikes me is that you've been consistently improving since the day you joined the boards. keep it up!
