I got my 107.5 yesterday as soon as i tend to break a PB my body goes to pot and isnt bothered about going any further! still tried for 110, but no such luck, was clean but wasnt going up and wasnt going down!
I went in fresh like you said freefaller. Half hour on the cross trainer to warm up and then did some lateral raises for my shoulders and back, then did a set of 10 on 70kg to warm up.
Then blasted out 80 90 and 100 kilo, 100 which went up quite easily. Next up was 105, which was a dirty rep if im honnest, not very clean, had a pause just after the push and a bit of a stammer, but it went up. Then i went for 100 again, was a good clean rep. Then hammered 107.5 out (form was spot on), n attempted 110 but didnt have it in me.
Had a little rest, and came back for 1 more rep of 105kg and finished off with a set of 2x100kg it was hard, but felt nice to be pushing a big weight (well for me anyway) more than once. I also did reps of larger weights, one because I was in fresh, but more importantly help build my strength up.
I expect after coming back after summer, even though i will try to keep up with training, it will inevitably slack a bit. If i can get 110kilo out over summer, or even at the end of the first semester next year ill be over the moon (gym round the courner doesnt have a bench or smith and its largest dumbells are 30kilo, time to find another gym i think!)
Rounded my session off with some dips. Then went out for some annihilation to celebrate my achievements and the end of my freshers year!
