I did legs today and think I have found the source of my pain in my shoulders. On my first working set of cleans they started burning like a mofo. The pull is what is killing me. Why? I have no idea, it has never happened until I started with the Fina. I don't think I will do cleans for another couple of weeks. I had a great squat day. I am getting back to the same strength on my legs as when I played football.
Squats to the floor:
135 x 10
225 x 10
275 x 3
315 x 3
365 x 3
405 x 3
455 x 3
500 x 1 This one wasn't quite as low as the others, but was still below parallel.
My appetite is breaking my bank. I want to eat everything in sight. We are about to begin spring training and I have been doing alot of agilities and bag drills. This is about the only cardio I have been getting.
I am a weightlifting coach and have a kid that is a junior in high school that qualified for the State Meet. He is in the 219 lb weight class, he weighs 208 and Benches 370 and Clean and Jerks 300. I got the list of all of the kids that qualified and there is a kid that Benches 450 and Clean and Jerks 380. What makes this so insane is the kid weighs 204.
I know this has nothing to do with what I have been doing, but I just had to share with you guys because I thought was insane. I can't wait to see what this kid looks like.
