I actually drank a Monster Rehab about 30 minutes before the gym, so I had more caffeine in me than I normally would before a workout.

Dips 1a
3x10xBW

Ab Wheel Rollout 1b
3x10xBW

Tried to do more dips and had some tricep issues. Wouldn't really call it a cramp but it was painful and not working, so I called it.

Which flavor? Rehab is the nuts.

Monster for rehab. Rock Star for carbonated. Imo.

Peach Tea. Would/would. Store only had that and tea+lemonade, so I got one of each.

I think I enjoy the non-carbonated energy beverages more in general. I end up getting the burps if I try and drink down a carbonated energy drink fairly quickly.

Agreed. The teas are best if you want to guzzle. Peach is excellent. I also like the rojo/raspberry.

How do you warmup for your pullups? I always get much better by the 3rd/4th set. The fix is obvious, but I'm just curious to hear what you prefer.

A little foam rolling of back and lats, then some dead hangs or a couple sets of singles or doubles. I haven't had much of an issue with it tbh.

Went camping over the weekend. Had to head out on Friday night to get a decent spot and setup, so no Olympic lifting last week

5/22

6PM

HBBS
5x295, 3x335, 5x375

Weights felt heavy. Even though I didn't hit another rep PR, I'm pretty happy with 5 reps at 375.

OHP
5x135, 3x155, 7x170

At least OHP felt good.

Going to do some pullups and accessory work around the house throughout the night.

Travelled to my hometown this weekend and had to skip Olympic day again. Luckily I was able to get in a workout with an old friend. Back to the normal schedule this week.

Front Squat
3x235, 3x265, 6x300

No belt. Really worked on front rack position which felt and looked quite a bit better. Should've got more reps but it's front squat and I hate high reps.

SOTTS Press
3x5x100

BTN Push Press
2x3x225, 6x225

Felt pretty good.

Pullups
BW+25x 5,4,3,3,2

Mostly done in between SOTTS presses.

Deadlift
5x275, 5x310, 5x355, 6x1x355 EMOM

Left straps in my backpack and didn't have them for top set. Did everything double overhand until the EMOM and that I alternated mixed grip. Grip is weak yo.

My thumbs are not up to the task on that top set. I also didn't have tape, so it would've been pretty rough.

6/3

10AM

Snatch
215, 225, 235, 245

C&J
275, 290, 300, 315

I haven't snatched or C&J in > 2 weeks. 245 Snatch looked to have a slight hop forward. I think this was due to me not finishing the pull and trying to rush under it. Looked pretty decent though.

C&J: 275 looked like garbage, weights just too light. 290 clean was fine, but jerk was a bit out front. 300 weird clean with weight crashing down, but decent jerk. 315 a solid clean and good jerk (minus the recovery)

Later, I did 3 rounds of run 0.3 mile, jog 0.3 miles.

Yasha lets people do No Feet Cleans to create the body awareness of pulling yourself into proper the receiving position, since the movement is slower and you're forced to stay in full control of the bar with the arms. Might help the bar crash if you don't know what to try.

Lifting heavier weights should do the trick too imo

You're right. I considered going heavier but then doubt crept into my mind. As soon as that happened, I decided to be content with the weights that I lifted and move on to the next lift/quit for the day.

6/4

2:30pm

HBBS
3x285, 3x325, 8x365

That top set sapped all of my energy. Instantly felt a little ill afterwards.

OHP
3x135, 3x150, 7x175

Traps and shoulders were feeling super sore and tight. I normally have a day off between Olympic day and squat/OHP, so I'm usually recovered.

Neutral Grip Pullups 1a
