Weight Training

Tuesday 18 August 2009

Today I felt good and decided to push the boundaries a little.
Start with bench press and progressed to 90kg for a few reps. Power cleans, done some warm up sets, repped 60kg. Normally progressed to 80kg but today I put 90kg on the bar. Got myself ready, took the strain.......BBBBBBBang, cleaned it. I am actually going for 100kg so I'm happy with my new '1 rep max'. finished off with 120kg dead lifts.

Carla lifted well today, She was down on her bench but much improved on her power cleans. She cleans 80% of her bodyweight and pulls to shrug position at body weight. CV tomorrow!!
