What the shit, what the shit, what the SHIT.
I WOULD LOVE TO GET THESE BUT MY BLACK RII’s ARE ONLY 2 MONTHS OLD.
WHYWHYWHYWHYWHY
So the other day, I kinda injured my right wrist trying to PR my snatch, so all day yesterday I did everything practically lower body. It was actually a way for my body to tell me to lay off the upper body shit for a minute and get back to where I’ve been much stronger at.
Squatted 275# x5 and did an EMOM of 10 BB front rack lunges at 115#. I was kinda bored so I wanted to see if I can do this.. obviously successful :P
It’s proof that my press game is getting way better. Before I wasn’t even able to balance myself for less than a second doing this and now.. a guy told while I was doing this “You should take a picture of yourself”, hence me pointing to my iPad and saying that I was!
Haha, super long story short:
It’s great when you can see how far you’ve come in any aspect. Work hard, and you’ll get to where you wanna be one way or another.
PR CITY ft. ….CLEAN AND JERKS.
236# 240.5# 245#
Notes to mention:
- My previous split jerk (From the rack) PR was 225#, and my C&J was 230.5#.
- Before these, I did heavy snatch deadlifts, a shit ton of snatches, and a few warmup sets of C&J (A total of ~1.5 hours). Here’s a video of the heaviest snatch I did that night at 155# (Current PR is 166#):
- The beanie made by Rogue Fitness gives special powers to get some awesome PRs. And they’re comfy as fuck. I suggest you all go get one.
- Ever since I heard the sound of thunder when my coach’s volt romaleos hit the wood floor, I’ve been exaggerating the hell out of it, trying to make it sound as loud as possible. ..it actually kinda helped in a way haha.
I know this is all super detailed and whatever, but can you blame my happiness? THREE FUCKING PRs IN ONE NIGHT. SHIRTLESS. COMPLIMENTED THAT I GOT BIGGER.
Yeah, I deserve the right.
#395 for one.
Complimentary attempt at being a total badass picture moment.
This was the lift before that fuckin’ #405 pull (Link here); my FIRST of two PR’s that day hahaha. I love how my back is still sore from it. :D And also reppin’ my box with those kickass fight shorts!
“Believe that you can, and you sure as shit will.”
Compliments to my friend Will and owner/coach Ant for taking the picture.
It’s getting cold as fuck over in Jersey, so I must dress myself appropriately.
- $16 for the beanie
- $4 for the sweater. Yeah, FOUR DOLLARS BHAHAHAH
I swear this is what most of my money goes to now a days. WORTH IT.
And knowing me, even though it’s cold, I’m probably going to go shirtless..
Pray that I don’t cramp up during today’s WOD. It’s an insanely long chipper.
At least I get to pig out a bit tonight for my mom’s birthday dinner :P
I want to get to know more of you guys. Why did you follow me? What are your fitness goals? Who are you?
Really though, start a conversation with me!!
