My best dead is 605, I haven't tried to hit a max in a long time, I think I will set a big dead PR in the coming months, they are really feeling good. My best on the flat bench is 425, but I don't think that is gonna fall this time around though, I need to be more optimistic about it though. I've squat cleaned 325 and power cleaned 320. On behind-the-neck jerks, I've done 295x5 and singles with 315 before. I usually start the cycle with my push press/clean grip and move it out as the weeks go by and try to peak with a snatch grip, as the shorter distance the bar has to travel really allows you to maximize the weight. I picked b-t-n jerks and flat bench because 1 lift is really nothing but speed and the other allows you to overload the upper body with the greatest loads possible. Olympic back squats are my ALL TIME favorite lift, but they really are not my best lift at all, I just love them and I always had huge respect for monster squatters. I am by no means a monster squatter, nor will I ever be, I just take pride in how far I have come with them just because I've trained them so hard over the years. My best ATG olympic squat is 515x1. If I can hit 465 or better for a 5, then I will have a good feeling about a PR.

Didn't get a chance to post last night's workout....
4/6/06
Power Clean : 135x 3 sets of 2, 185x2, 225x2, 245x2, 265x2, 285x2
Olympic Squat: 135x10, 225x5, 315x5, 365x5, 405x5, 425x3
Front Squat (just for shits and giggles) 225x2, 275x2, 305x2, 325x2, 345x2 (345 was tough)
Decline Situps : bodyweight at 3 sets of 20
Good night of training, I was overcome with the urge to front squat, so I just did them. I may pay for it, we shall see, lol.
Post workout was meatloaf, scalloped potatos, mixed veggies, and a quart of milk.....before bed was a Metrx 51 gram rtd and about a half a box of wheat thins, lol.
I will make the second olympic squat workout of the week a % day or an 8 rep day or a front squat day once my 5 reppers on Mon are at 455+.

Why don't you post up your workout template? That'd be cool to see.
Who the Fuck do you live with? Damn. Are you cooking that shit yourself, or are you going out? Or do you still live w/ your mom? LoL

Thanks Twealke and Ilovetolift. Protobuilder, I like to dabble in the kitchen, lol, I do like to go out a lot, I will specify, lol.....for a template, the base is this:
Monday: power clean, olympic squat, deadlift or good morning, situps
Tuesday: flat bench, upper assistance, lat work
Wednesday: off....or light power snatch
Thursday: power clean, second squat workout, situps
Friday: behind-the-neck jerk, second bench workout, lat work
Saturday: gay day (bis/tris/calves)...1 exercise, ~40 total reps for each
That is just my basic guideline....I add to the main workouts sometimes .....sometimes I will sprint after a workout or throw the shot around (IF I have access to it courtesy of an old buddy who coaches high school track)
