Woo! How about Cissus gateau, with CEE cream filling?

Recipe sounds great, i will be trying this (with prepared TVP instead of the mince, of course)

Has to be CM for the cheesecake unless it's lemon to hide the tatse.

If carbs aren't a problem you can always add a little BBQ sauce as well.

I have a problem in my lower thoracic as I am slightly more unstable there than in my thoracic spine and my lumbar so it is banging around. This basically results in mad spasms of pain when I even say the words Snatch, Clean or Jerk.

Deads are fine but off limits for me for a bit (any more than 2 weks is ages though).

GUTTED.

How's that knee coming along?

Ah that doesnt sound too good mate, im the same as you in regards to training, i just want to be able to train legs.
0,
Knee is sore at the moment Drew, have got some rehab this afternoon, im on the CPM machine (continuous passive motion), youve no doubt heard about it.

Im on that for an hour, im slightly apprehensive as i havent bent my knee since thursday which was before the op so it's going to be slightly weird for me.

Thanks Drew.

THE ROAD BACK TO FITNESS

Well after a couple of injuries the most serous being to my back I have the all clear to start training properly again. Over the last couple of months I have been training in basically a BB'ing style with the following type splits

push,
pull,
legs.

And

vertical plane (with limited overhead stuff)
legs
horizontal plane

The upshot was that whilst have a little more muscle here and there I feel weak and disjointed as I wasn't able to deadlift, push press, oly lift, overhead squat and squat weights very low. Also sprints etc jumps etc were off the menu so I am also feeling pretty out of shape lactate and endurance wise.

I also got very bored.

Over the coming weeks I'll bee getting right back into it with some really grueling workouts stressing strength endurance, power and explosive power. I use what I know works for me with workouts looking like this....

10 eps of each movement then on to the next, rest then 9 of each then, 8,.. 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1
Piston Press: 2x 30kg db's
Front squat: 60kg
Box Jump: 20 inch
Pull-up
Deadlift 60kg (light is the way to go here!)

Then to finish: a few rounds of bag work.

or

Power cleans & jerk: 5 sets of 2 reps,
Overhead squat: 3 sets of 8 reps,
kettlebell turkish get-ups,
pushup, burpee, jump to pull up: 1 minute continuous, one min off, repeat x 3

This is what I plan to do I'll see if I can make the numbers like the ones listed above – probably not as I am unfit and weak but we'll see how I go! All embarrassing numbers will appear below.......

Yeah good mate. How is the leg coming along? Physio still playing nasty?

Yeah, I have been away in the US and round Europe for the last month and only back in the country for short periods so no time to post. Up to my eyes in in now what with another branch of the clinic opening.

3) Salad: mixed leaves, walnuts and seeds, leerdammer light life chunks a few grapes grapes.

4) After workout whey:malto:dex... 1:1:1 ratio*

Training: Strength endurance:

This is basically stolen from a masters oly lifter called Dan John, I'd bet he'd be the first to admit he stole it from someone else though. I have changed the movements to suit me and my current limitations... the Big 55

As planned:

10,9,8,7,6,5,4,3,2,1 reps of the following complex

Piston Press: 2x 30kg db's (45 deg angle on the side of a swiss ball)
Front squat: 60kg (light is the way to go here!)
Box Jump: 20 inch
Pull-up: bodyweight
Deadlift 60kg (again, light – also means I can use the same bar)

Felt soooo bad after... and it took almost 30 mins! The idea is to make my workouts pretty random but I'll probably try this again in a few weeks to gauge my change in physical capacity.

Nice pwclean & jerk concidering your bw, injury and experience, really good in deed.
I quite like your feeding process as well, looks interesting. Are you running some kind of ketogenic diet?
I've read your journal, seems to me you have things under control, will follow your progress on a regular basis from now on.
As you've noticed my log is about olympic lifting, feel free to pop in and ask whatever, i'll be glad to be of any help despite my lack of experience.
Cheers.

Cheers for dropping by Mishima. No, no ketogenic diet for me just keeping the starchy carbs for when I need them - the rest comes from more micronutrient dense sources such as fruit.

With regards to the Oly lifting... I don't think the numbers are that good considering. I may not have come over from my post but I am quite experienced I actually teach these lifts to lay people as well as PT's etc. Not olympic lift programming, just the lifts themselves. So you see the numbers aren't that great!

Still it necessary. When I go back to training at a proper gym i.e. one with bumper plates then the numbers will go up again.

Interesting! How would you call such a diet? Paleontodiet? What are the benefits of it? I thought complex carbs were alright. What is the idea behind low carb cycling if that is what it is?

As for OL i didnt know you once taught these lifts. Can i ask you what your all time pbs are?
