Went for the 5 in the end. Tough but not brutal. Reckon I'd manage 130 actually. Don't think it'll be too long till I hit the ceiling!

20.4 road miles, 942ft climbing, 16.3mph av.

Hard bloody work, no energy etc. Still, better than not going out.

Just finished my Friday session (early for me!) Calorie deficit seems to have kicked in, too, weighed 72.3kg this morning, although starting to feel the effects when training..

BB Standing Press:
5x5 reps (50-60kg)
1x4 clean reps and 1 jerk (62.5)
1x3 clean reps and 2 jerks (65)
1x1 clean rep and 1 jerk (67.5)

A PB for me. Thought I'd try 70kg, but no chance, not much left in me after that, so just three jerks with 70, which don't really count.

Shoulder Shrugs - 5x12-18 reps (100-120kg)

Power Clean and Jerk (I know these don't really belong here, but I feel they help strengthen my core due to the amount of weight and speed of the movement)

5x2 reps (65-75kg) The last set of two with 75, I only managed one clean and jerk, couldn't get the bar up the second time.

Superset - 4 sets of 10-12 reps each:
Triceps Push Downs
Chin Ups

BB Preacher Curl - 4 sets of 8-12 reps (42.5-50kg)

Deadlifts - 5x1 rep (120-160kg - adding 10kg each time). 160kg still feels very heavy for me, was hoping I could try 165, but just about managed 160.

Decent, back feels pretty strong just now. Post work out snack was a wrap with cream cheese, jam, a crushed Kitkat and butter, wrapped up and microwaved- tasted awesome! (Then protein & milk) Always cheat a bit at the weekend smile

Sounds awful...

Which gym is this? Just to ensure I don't accidentally visit.

Obviously.

PB again! Nice one dude.
I ought to try clean and jerk but don't have the confidence. Next time I can type in a trainer I'll give it a go.

Cheers! smile

When I say 'Clean reps' and one 'Jerk', I mean I did, for example, 4 clean reps, as in pushing all the way up from the sternum, rather than starting with a helping 'jolt' or 'jerk'. When I realise I cannot do another strict press, I 'jerk' the BB up. I now realise that doing lots of warm up sets really helps, especially when pushing for heavier weights (for me at least)
