JTurner's Eat, Lift, Eat Log

[BendtheBar]

Watching 400kg yoke runs, 300kg total farmers and 180kg+ log clean and press made me feel weak and small ha.

I bet. I tried a yoke walk with 600 and was spent.

Leg Extensions

Squats were a little off.

Bench was ok, let form slip too much though. This is the last week I plan to go heavy with lower reps and I still hit my only bench goal for the cycle of 125 x 2, my old POR paused max single.

One heavy session left, a deloadish week next week and then plenty of reps and form work for a while.

Terrible angle, can't see that my arms are in completely different position on the second rep, my right arm always flares before the left and that's the arm that still locks out higher than the left. That shoulder is a bitch, never painful anymore but its a fight to get that scap moving properly.

Ye, if it wasn't for me letting form slip I'd class it lower. Non-stop progress though, not gonna complain!

Sumo's went to plan today, 215 I didn't reset properly for #2 so I was a little forward and out of whack, reckon it would have been @8.5 if I'd have reset (Looking over the vid I didn't really set up too good for either rep). 215 was my Sumo max and also beat my conventional double at 210. 5pps double in there easy.

BTNPP plan was to work up to the 95 x 2 ~@9 and hit 100 x 1 for shits and giggles. Easy double with 100kg, first ever 2 plates above my head. My favourite lifting PB to date for sure.

Added some extra stuff in as next week I don't plan on doing much at all.

Thought I'd put something over the video that was closer to what was going through my head, enjoy, or don't ha.
