lol. my goals probably aint too far from yours, i've just made bodyweight a priority first rather than the other way round. :) Elite 800m runners are capable of running 10.6-7 so thats something im definitely shooting for, a big snatch (1.25xbw) clean (1.5xbw) deadlift (3xbw) are big goals for...

"Getting leaner will allow me to kill the 30m, 60m and absolutely blitz the vertical jump. My fullsquat is just under 385 right now I think. My best powerclean is 110kg (243lbs), when I was fullsquatting around 375lbs. So I would need to bump up the fullsquat to 455lbs to get my powerclean to...

well, I think personally think muscle mass is overrated. :) taken from ''training of a weightlifter" text it take 8-10 years for a elite lifter to max out. Then muscle mass is the only way to improve (i.e. move up a weight class) super heavy weights take up to 16 years for progress to come to...

JESUS! all these awesome squatters on here! rock bottom???? .................

I know it sounds stupid, but rather than get super complex about everything, compare what you were doing when you were lean to what you are now. It may be as simple as that. Dr. mauro disquale (former world champ pl'er totaling 10xbw in 3 different catergories) says genetic food tests are 10...

height: 6'1 (185.5cm) weight: 83kg squat: 150kgx3 standing vertical jump: 30-31" strength ratio: 1.8 x bw for a triple running two foot vert was much better, I almost maxed out on elastic components (26% above vert, kelly baggett says around 30% is top), touched 11'1" over with a reach of 242cm...

good stuff fella, looking good!

yesterday session (07/11/05) played a local league basketball game (evening) Not smart as the shins are aching again now. Felt real sick before the game as I always do, no matter how bad or good the team I lack any sort of energy & end up sitting majority of warm ups on the bench. warming...

heres a few goals by christmas; bodyweight; 79.5kg (current 83kg) this is essential is I wish to run fast over 800m! most 800m runners are around 160-165lbs at my height, similar to jaime wariner (400m sprinter) who in my opinion looks like a rake but hey, the demands of the sport...

yesterday session (06/11/05) olympic lifts; snatch 70kg (bout 90%) clean 90kg powered em up & left it there, I wanted to hit some heavy gm's. rack good morning; 50/60/80x2, 105x1, 120x miss. this would of been a 5kg record, broke it off the pins but not happening, gona go light in the...

yesterdays session (05/11/05) hang clean warm up 90/92.5/95/97.5! (7.5kg pb) back within 12.5kg of my best hang clean, slowly getting the form back, 3-4 weeks & I should smoke 112.5kg for a record. nice easy pull, better explosion but still no quick transition from pull to catch. I jump real...

true! I would like to move up to 400m eventually as my main event but I think im way off that at the moment, I want the endurance for the longer distances first as I suck at endurance. I've definitely got the bodytype for it the shorter events, I have to fight to lose every ounce & lb of...

lol. computer playing up. yesterday session. (03/11/05) military 42.5x28 incline bench 60x24 bhn chin bwx21 (1 rep pb) front squat 125 (attempted a pb of 130, missed) standing sit ups 40x30 pronated 14" row 50x30 played around with a few olympic lifts, I havent done these in a few months so...

Thought i'd better give some previous personal bests; olympic back squat 150x3 (havent maxed, only tried a *very* hard triple) front squat 127.5 conventional dead 200 sumo 205 (almost smoked that 210 last week though)! clean & jerk 107.5 hang clean 110 bench 100kg (shocking, so leave me alone...
