Yes, I guess I forgot to mention that in my log, I pointed it out when I put in the white board thread. I was attempting to fix that but I made it worse. Bleh.
Anyway, I just finished my workout today. And filmed it. If nothing else, I feel pretty diligent and am proud of myself for filming most, if not all, of my workouts since starting part 2. I plan to keep it up. Here is what I did today:
Squat Work Set:
230x3x5
Notes: I only filmed the first set because there were to many ****** running around doing circuit training for me to find a spot to set it down. My squat rack on it's way so I won't have to worry about it any more. I'm not sure about this today. Even though I think my form is improving with the belt, I don't think I got deep enough on my reps. I will have to focus on the next time. Also, my knees might be tracking a little too far forward, not sure. Actually, watching this again I'm sure that my reps are too high.
Press Work Set:
105x3x5
Notes: Still a lower weight because I am resetting and micro-loading. I really hope to micro load all the way up to work sets of 135. I think I am just plain genetically weak when it comes to upper body stuff, so we'll see how that goes. I also noticed my lay-back gets more pronounced as the weight increases.
Power Cleans Work Set:
155x5x3
Notes: Not sure on these really. I think I am improving my starting position/back angle a little bit but it looks like it decays as I get fatigued. I strained my arm squatting, hurt it a little more pressing, and by the time I was catching the bar in the rack position it was really agonizing. It's happened plenty times before, and just like before it feels fine now, only an hour or so later. I also realize that the last 3 angles I used are pretty much pointless, and I'll stick to more side-like angles in the future.
Double Kettlebell C+J
35x8
Notes: Not even sure if that's what it's called, what I'm doing here. I didn't realize the camera angle was so bad, but I did get to lockout on all the reps. My camera freaked out when I was uploading so I don't have all the reps recorded. Bleh. Oh well. Not even sure if I'm close on these. Am I supposed to be jumping when I do these?
Kettlebell clean
70x1x each arm (Fail)
I tried to clean my 70 pound kettle bell once with each arm. I got it up to the rack position pretty easily, but as soon as I got it there it was too heavy and I dropped it. I filmed it but it didn't upload for whatever reason. Will try to do these successfully soon.
And I have been successfully eating way less calories everyday, 2500ish or so. I'm also getting lots of protein. Even though I'm getting stronger, my gut is getting disgustingly big. Hopefully it will be a lot smaller in a few months.
