Don't mind at all pal!
These are just extra sessions for a bit of recovery and conditioning. As such they are as much for pre-hab as anything, ie keep my shoulders healthy and aid recovery. I'll have 2 sessions like this a week. One on monday that can be semi-serious lifting (may include soem decent shoulder and back work) and one on either tuesday or thurs which is almost totally recovery/pre-hab based, as the above was. I didn't note it down, but today I did some band dislocates and mobility on a fit ball for my shoulders and spent about 10in stretching my back and legs!
I then train deadlift weds, bench friday and squat sat.
I am resting up from real lifting this week as I have a gym comp on sat! I'll then be back into a normal cycle leading up to nxt comp.

Nice little session today. The plan this morning was do some speed work, maybe some tripples with 100, however my technique seemed to be working well so decided to see where it would take me. Ended up with some nice singles without working too hard and gas left in the tank.
My back still aint 100% but there you go! Onwards to tomorrows push and pull gym comp!

"eee-an". 'Iain' is the Gaelic equivalent of 'John' and 'Ian' is the anglisised form of the name. Both are pronounced the same.

****ing great day's lifting. New pb overhead and a little landmark lift, and finally, ****ing finally, 18 months in the making, the 600lbs and x3 BW deadlift falls!! **** me it was a tough lift but ground it the **** out!! You will see in the vid when it's posted I was quite happy
Finshed the days lifting with a little pin pressing as a jolly and a big KFC to get the kcals in! Plenty of beers will be flowing tonight!

This was the 'Suthern Meet' held in Southampton. Not the one at Adders. I hear there was some big lifting at adders with 7 peeps doing 300lbs plus overhead, a few doing 400lbs and a 210kg effort!!
Ours was a smaller affair but great fun non the less!

Hello Iain, I saw the vids on Sugden, but I must say - you did look rather pleased with that effort. 
Excellent lifting.

Poppers?

Poppers ! I don't think 10s of giggling on the floor would help my deadlift!
Its nosetorque aka smelling salts. Ably handed to me by Sivvy!

Standing BTN press (snatch grip)- barx10x5 (Cheers Martin)
From the hang complex; Muscle snatch to power snatch (split) to overhead split squat- 50x3x5
Split snatch- 50x3x3
Power clean and split press- 50x3x2
I am not sure whether some of my terminology is off, but I am trying out snatching with a split instead of a squat. Fun session with limited rest ,that got the heart and blood going.
