Deads:
Warm up
Bar*20
60*10
100*10

152.5*3
172.5*9 - felt pretty good - I have a vid which I may upload later if I can find a piece of software that will let me edit/cut out the 1st minute or so (just me preparing) - it turns out it's only 9 reps
Thought I counted more - ah well, it was ok really.

Pull ups
Bw*6
10*5
20*5
20*6

All in all pretty good - fairly happy with that. Pull ups felt tough today though.

Hmm says it cannot run on my pc for some reason :/
My phone.
Samsung S3 - I just want to trim the extraneous bits. If you know of good free video editing software that would be handy. 
Yeah - though to be fair it's never been my weak exercise 
Happy and surprised at bench, OHP will be my biggest challenge.

XP? Who uses XP!
I lied - it's only 9 reps!
I'll get the vid uploaded sometime soon.

I don't know either. Stupid thing. Ah well, I've got that phone app for it, so will upload it when I get home.
I clearly had the same issue. Ah well, at least I'm not too far off target - so not really that disappointed.
Oof that last rep is messy.
Angle is looking up so it's not a very clear picture - but happy with form to be honest it's never been something I've ever had a huge amount of problem with for deads. Could pin my shoulders back a bit more, but I think that was due to fatigue. The angle is poor really for showing form. Head needs to be more neutral too actually. Ah well it's good enough really.
You get to stare at my arse a lot too

I'd like to see you try! 
By the summer I'll be 10-20% stronger!

Thanks guys - could have probably squeezed another out. My vids always make it look easy, but it's always a lot harder IRL!
Oh and DOH for 3 reps at the beggining
Ah a man with taste!
Yup I switch to even out my grip, but also it gives each hand a bit of recovery. I normally manage about 5 reps @ 180 with DOH - but meh, there you go. Felt strong and it looked better than I guess I thought it would. Still need to engage glute drive a bit more and pinch those shoulder blades back. Back was neutral and flat throughout which I'm happy with.

Any videos for the DB cleans? Might add them in every so often
Edit: nice squatting
I'll try and get some next time - I'd be keen to see my form. It's a killer core work out, especially when you do DB push press with 2s lockouts afterwards!
OHP is coming along nicely
It'll never be uber strong - but it's improving that's what counts. Wish I could buy a new shoulder!
Squats are on target - won't be getting to 200kg for another couple of months, but it's going the right way.
