Stretches

Comments: One of those sessions where really neither of us was pushing the other, consequently I was just rushing in to do sets before any weight got put on!!

I kinda hung back until the DL then I started to load a bit of weight on it. Maurice hates DLs so he wasn't too pleased, but he did a very creditible 120kgs single. I did up to that weight with a clean grip but it was starting to slip so I had to change for the last single. It felt OK - but I thought it would be a little easier.

The single arm push press wasn't too taxing, but I wasn't getting the speed for them so no point in going much higher.

Hangover from Easter's food feast - I know I said it on my last post, but now it is really time to wind my neck in as far as nutrition goes.

  1. Clean grip DLs will help you hold on during the 2nd pull. I have found them to be a very underrated grip exercise.
