Got up today and I am hurting! However strength still needs to be worked on so I'll do a little low volume deads and what ever else I think I can work in Eating 40g whey and coffee, then 20mins later; oats, coconut, peanut butter, milk. 1 krill and 4 fish oil caps Salmon and broccoli Train: peri workout nutrition 60g whey 60g malto, 60g dex PPWO: Oat and egg scramble with vegetables Planned: Chicken breast and large salad, walnuts Planned: Sashimi (in the city today), seaweed salad Planned: low fat chili and salad. Planned: small MPC shake with flax oil before bed. Training Deads: 7 sets of 3 reps Went OK managed to gingerly work up to 155kg for 3 @ body weight of 81kg on deads. Not setting the world alight but also not bad 1st time back after back injury

Cheers mate. Here's hoping. Push presses are fine at 85 now so I think the back is getting there. Regarding PB's..... Hmmmm don't really mean much as I don't them anywhere near full time and only do the full movements to keep the technique up - they are used purely as an adjunct but.... without further adieu..... C&J ~ 115 (though TBH my best power clean is really not far behind) Snatch 80 (I've always been terrible as I don't have the useful range of motion in my shoulders. Excuses, excuses) All of them at different times and various BW's but all around 75-85kg Ugly, I know. I am aware of where a lot of the sticking points are, the drop under the bar on both lifts for example but, frankly unless I get round to doing these movements with and eye to competition they aren't going to get hammered out properly simply because I don't do them, the 'power' and hang versions are better considering my goals, injuries etc. Right, excuses over! Regarding the diet... I wouldn't call it paleo but I do see the reasoning behind a lot of what these type of protocols push. I eat Lots of veg Lots of lean meats and fish Fruit in good amounts Nuts, seeds and other oil sources & high quality dairy as needed and Whole grains, beans etc around breakfast and after training. It works for me, it is not what I espouse for my clients.

hi Drew 80-115 lifts good enough for a league match and 155 deads back injury cant be too serious. nice do you have a coach to check your technique ? checked out your first page with the abreviations SSCW and so on, little tip we are mostly lazy baskets to keep looking back on this just put say cardio bike would be easier (well for a thicko like me anyway) i will be keeping an eye out- may need your help to i used to compete at 70k went up to 90k at xmas with very little training would like to get down to 77k class comp in december weigh about 85 at present diet tea no sugar or water throughout day (manual job walking/gardening various) breakfast - weetabix snack - banana or yogurt lunch- chicken/cous cous or salad snack - sometimes chocolate apple dinner- pasta or rice with chicken or fish veggies trying to mimimise bread at moment and have smaller portions and up the cardio bike in the garage now helps

Rusev, cheers for dropping in and cheers for the comment on the lifts. I am surprised at the deads as I haven't been able to hold my arm over my head whilst standing without doubling over in pain for the last 8 weeks! Without going to much into the diet side of things it looks like you could use some help in the Diet & Nutrition forum (or from Healthy Action of course!), before giving too much info I like to know a little more about lifestyle and why someone is eating the way they are but I would say that 1) get down to your target weight at a reasonable rate and well before the event. Sure staying at a higher weight is great psychologically - you are used to bigger lifts and standing in front of heavier bars but last minute weight drops are a killer for performance 2) keep a food diary for a week and look at it yourself in terms of Food group choice: are you getting the right types of foods? Food amounts: are you getting too much of anything considering training and lifestyle? Meal timings: little and often spread out evenly or more grouped together in the evening for instance? Nutrient timings are you eating carbs at what could potentially be the wrong time?

As i said earlier, i'll say it again, i do like your feeding process since it is a bit like what i've been eating for two years. My rules : not to eat what couldn't have been eaten two centuries ago. Rejecting all processed foods. Fats in reasonable quantities yet bad fats from meat along with both linoleic and linolenic acids, almonds, olives, fat fish from cold water, nuts, advocados, peanut butter. No milk but soy milk, dairy products in very spare quantity, i live in France and cant skip'em for long Proteins as lean as can be, yet every sources, eggs, turkey, beef are those that comes up on a regular basis. Complex carbs post work out and first thing in the morning only, mostly oats, red beans, lentils, pasta, rice. A couple of fruits a day, veg would basically be spinach, brocolis, carots and tomatoes.

The above two posts (sorry, no idea how to quote two different people ) just sum up nutrition for anyone who can't see the wood for the trees (all of us sometimes!)

It's certainly simple and will work for a lot of people but, as there is a lot of different goals and people out there, by no means all. It's just a way of eating that I have put together for myself, the culmination of a lot of study and experimentation. Not all are set in stone.

ORIGINAL: Rusev then i eat something silly. Such as? Is it something in the cupboards at home in the kitchen or something you get from a place near work? If it's from home you can either 1) pay for me to come round and do a kitchen once over or 2) just throw out all the crap from the fridge, cupboard etc yourself. I prefer option 1, your pocket will prefer 2! If it's from a place near work or somewhere where you go regularly (gym, club etc) then identify 4 alternate meals you can get there that conform to your body comp (and health!) needs, write them down on a piece of paper, and only allow yourself them. If needs be go to a different place. If you mentally draw a line in the sand (either go round the kitchen or write a list) compliance to the plan becomes easier. Once you are good most of the time (80-90%) then you can be bad some of the time. The bottom line is it is all about self control. Exercise that control.

Ignoring the tumbleweeds that blow through this journal..... 11/7 Training Warm up: 5 min cross trainer and then the 'Bergner' warm-up + a few light sets of the below Work sets: I don't know why I did this to myself..... 10 sets of 3 reps once one set of an exercise was done I then moved onto the next with no or minimal rest. bench: 85kg bent over row: 95kg back squat: 110kg Brutal. The clusters etc are really good not only improving my strength endurance but also knocking off the 'rust'. Sometimes you forget what real effort is in the gym.

ORIGINAL: drewsky 2/7th Eating: 1) Veg omelet 2) 3 kippers celery sticks with peanut butter. Apple. 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* 5) PPWO Wholewheat spaghetti, low fat homemade tomato and veg sauce, 250g lean steak. Berries in yoghurt. 6) Dinner: Chicken caesar salad, glass of red. Pear. 7) Before bed: 40g milk protein concentrate, 1 tsp chopped almonds, ground coconut, greens powder. * normally I'd have a little before & during and the rest after but unless given the training I am doing there is no point – it would just bounce. You see this is interesting your PPWO, i have been a big fan of chilli and basmati rice PPWO or like the above spagetti bol, but fats PPWO are advocated on this forum as a big No No, and the fat in 250g of mince is a lot espeically when mixed with carbs and protein calories. Whats your thoughts on it?
