Had an ok session today. Try to get my push press technique better since its more jerks than push presses Ive been doing.
13/2/08
Rack Push Press- 60/5, 80/5, 100/3/3
I then set up a pressing medley with a 120 axel, 100 barbell and 50kg dumbbell with th eplan of doing 1 rep on the axel, 2 on the barbell and then 3 reps on each arm with the dumbbell. The axel cleans were very poor and I think its just because I havent used it for a while; also with starting the cleans so heavy I messed them up. So just ditched that idea.
Strict Standing Press- 50/8, 70/5/5
Shrugs- 170/10/10
Bench- 60/8, 90/6, 110/3
Then just finished up by trying to get my technique better for bench press and then also find a good technique for the behind the neck jerks.

Had a pretty piss poor session today, although sort of makes it better considering had a comp last weekend, then the heavy rack pulls on Monday. Was trying the knee wraps today to get used to them for the finals and they were ok, but totally threw me off.
15/2/08
Squats- 60/8/6, 100/5, 140/3, 180/2, 220/2, 200/1 Wraps on the 200 set
Karlsen Squats- 60/6, 100/5, 180/3, 260/1/2 Wraps on from the 180 set.
Skulls- 30/12, 50/8, 60/10 CG
Tricep Circuit- {10 dips; 10 70kg straight bar PDs; 10 50kg rope PDs} DONE TWICE, NO REST
Decline Crunches- BW/20/20

Not too bad of a session tonight, went for a 290kg deadlift since my 260 was fast and smooth. I totally overshot the mark though, should have gone to 275 for a double. Getting too obsessed about the 300kg dead by May!
Going to do some rep stuff at 270 or 275 next week and then maybe 280 for a single, hopefully a double a couple of weeks later and then see how to take things from there.
18/2/08
Deadlifts- 70/6, 120/3, 170/1, 220/1, 260/1, 290/f/f, 285/f No motivation and too little off the bar with the 285 set.
Pulldowns- lv.10/8, lv.13/10/10, lv.15/10
Skulls- 30/12, 50/8, 60/12 CG
DB OH Ext- 30/10, {50/8, 35/12 DROP SET}
Tricep Circuit- {10 dips; 10 lv.8 straight bar PDs; 10 lv.5 UH straight bar PDs} DONE TWICE, NO REST

Good session tonight, very pleased with how my pressing is coming along now-a-days after it used to be my main weakness.
20/2/08
Rack Jerks- 70/5, 90/5, 120/2
Behind the neck jerks- 70/3, 90/2, 110/1 PB
Pressing Medley- {90 Axel/3, 50 DB/2 each arm}; {90 Axel/3, 45 DB/2 each arm} Was puffing like **** when I got to the DB on the first set, but with the second was much much faster and didnt lose too much breathe
Strict Press- 50/6, 70/5/5
Bench- 70/3/8 Just working on technique and then pauses on the second set, proper benching starts next week to get upto par for the gym push pull comp
Shrugs- 170/12, 220/8
Lat Raise- 12.5/12/15
