Hiatus

Had to take a bit of a hiatus.. injury :-(

Strength Gains!!

It's been a while since I posted but not since going to the gym. I've been working somewhat consistently on more conditioning than technique so that I can build strength in key areas: the core, the quads and the upper body. Some of the lifts I have been doing include the push press, squats, front squats (225 now) deadlifts and rack pulls. As I am preforming some of these, my legs, butt, upper back have been destroyed. As I am getting stronger, some old PRs have been achieved. My 405 deadlift came back. I jerked 175 and upped it to an occasional 180. My rack pull was a shock as I pulled 505!!! This means that 405 deadlift will become a 500 pound deadlift in a few months. I also see some 200 pound clean and jerk coming by December. I just have to find a facility and a coach that support oly lifting locally. A video or two will be coming soon.
