IDGAF

The sooner you stop worrying about what others will think of your actions, the better off you'll be. This doesn't mean be an asshole or don't consider others' feelings, but when you make a decision to do something, be comfortable and confident enough that you can defend it and do it without consequence. You'll feel a hell of a lot better.

Training 6/23/15

Been a loooooong time since I posted.

Power snatch from hang - worked up to 205x1, then dropped to 155 for 6 or 7 doubles
Pause squat - 225x6,5,4,3

Snatches felt much better than last week. Was doing too much thinking though. Just need more reps.

Birthday Testing Session & Other Training

Did a training session on my birthday to see where I was at with some things. Overall, I was pretty happy with the performance.

BW - 197
Pullups - 15
Close grip - 300x1 (PR! Although my butt came off the bench slightly for a split second. I'm still counting it)
Close grip - 200x16
Feet-elevated inverted row - 25 in one minute
Pushups - 35 in one minute
Squat - worked up to 295 and shut it down. Quad/hip flexor just didn't feel good. Probably could have pushed up like 335, but I wasn't going to PR, so I didn't feel like pushing it harder than that.
Trap bar - 420x1
Squat - 200x32



Then yesterday (5/21/15) I did
A. Snatch-grip RDL - 2x5@185, 2x5 @205
B. Hanging leg raises - 3x10
A. Feet-elevated pushups - 3x10
B. Blast-strap inverted rows - 3x10

Just wanted to get some work in.

Training 5/6/15

A. Weighted chinups - 3x5 - +40 lbs
B. Front squat grip reverse lunges - 3x6/leg - 95
A. Power jerk - worked up to 205x5
B. Back extensions - 3x20

Didn't feel like training, so kept it lighter. Haven't jerked for reps (insert joke here) in ages. By the last few reps, it was getting a bit ugly.

Training 5/1/15

Rack deadlift from knees - 8x3 - 405 all sets
Dips - 2 mins b/w sets - +40 lbs - 20, 10, 10
A. Yates rows - 4x12 - 155
B. Hanging leg raises - 3x10

Utter dogshit. Need sleep and to decrease non-training-induced stress. Then I can probably start to make progress.
