Vanity is not a sin...

RSR W4D1 (5*5 @ 150kg Bailed on fourth rep of third set. Better than last week, but I suspect a return to some volume is required. Oh, well... Made myself feel a bit better with 110kg for 8, but...
OHP (5s) 40-50 Shoulder lit up like an incandescent bulb, so knocked this on the head.

More shoulder rehab, sleep and food required. And lots more squatting. Which will probably be fine considering my wrist hurts from Saturday's plate mishap, potentially meaning less snatching... :(
 
POWERCLEAN -> 5* PUSHPRESS 50-70-70-75-75
PENDLAY ROW (5s) ss/w DUMBELL SHOULDER PRESS (8s) 110(14)-110(16)-110(16)-110(16)
SUPIN. GRIP CHINS (8s) BW-8-8

Shoulder is still pretty rough from the front rack, but is fine when past the sticking point. I have another physio appointment next week so will see what's going on...
 
SNATCH BALANCE (5s) BAR-40-50
HIGH HANG SNATCH (3s) 50-60-70-80(1ff) Not sure I like training like this at work...
RSR re-work (4*3) 140-150-150-150-150 Still felt hard!
 
CLEAN -> 5* PUSH PRESS 50-50-70-80-80
PENDLAY ROW (5s) 80-100-100-100-100
DUMBELL BENCH ss/w WG CHINS (8s) 22.5(BW*5)-32.5(BW)-35(BW)-35(BW)

Push press is feeling good. Still doing a load of rotator cuff work and things seem to be slowly improving. We shall see, however.

Oh I see. My immediate thought was that 22.5 is 5* your BW :eek:

You're not the first person to be confused by my logs. ;) :D

This will happen next time around - I'm currently trying to keep my shoulder in its socket. :(

Mirin push press.

Thanks... it's almost as much as Freefaller's strict press. :D The aim is to use PP for shoulder gains as I reportedly have a migrating humeral head that doesn't like being loaded from rest. PP is probably not great, but the dead start associated with strict pressing causes more complaints than it needs to, sadly.
 
One session today...

SNATCH BALANCE (3s) 40
SNATCH COMPLEX (1 floor, 1 hang) 60-70-80-90(2f)-90 (90kg reps were from hang)...
RSR W3D3 (6*2 @ 140kg) No real drama. EDIT: Actually, last set, my brain went blank and I had a nice five second pause at the bottom. *idiot*
FRONT SQUAT (FTL) 70-110-130-140 (BOOM! PB!) Interesting. Nice how much difference the back squatting makes. :)

After a disastrous day in the gym yesterday (no strength, power or... anything), today was better.

CLEAN -> 5*PUSHPRESS 40-70-80-85(3)-85(2.5) Tricep started stinging on the last rep, so bailed before all hell broke loose...
SNATCH PULL (3s) 110-110-110-110
WIDE GRIP CHINS (8s) 6-6-6(6) Shoulder feels much better and less tight. Tricep started hurting on these (how does that even...?) so third set was a good time to wimp out. :D
 
Didn't do much in the gym yesterday - just some single arm rows and something else which I can't remember...

So, today...

PANDA PULLS (3s) 80-80-90-100-100 A bit slow, but got faster as the weight increased (?)...
SNATCH GRIP SLDL FROM FLOOR (5s) 120-120-120 Just because. So much back activation it was funny. :D
OHP ss/w WG CHINS (8s) 40,BW-40,BW-45,6-45,6 Shoulder feels much better, and tricep was behaving. A little bit of pain due to some impingement on the left shoulder (can't remember which it was, but at least it's not obstructive.
DB BENCH (8s) 18-22.5-22.5 Light to ease my tricep back in.
21s BAR-25 Clearly my arms are getting hurt because I'm not stabilising my shoulders or elbows sufficiently. ;) :D
