I was keeping a log at another site, but no one goes there anymore. After I started posting my stuff to the interwebz, this thing happened. I had to get one more rep, or make a new gain.

I always start with simple stuff, then my accessory work is an amalgamation of things I've seen from coach youtube that looks beneficial/challenging, but mostly fun.

Last nite,

DL, 95,135,185,225 x5
add 64lbs chains, hop on a plate
263x5, 280 x5, 298 x8

lite hammer winds 5 each side
chins 5x5

FS 95,135,185,225,275,300 x1

cardio
2xbw DL, 5 chins, bw OH x5, bw FS x5  all that x2 supersetted.

I weigh 190.

All comments and info greatly appreciated, thanks for having me. I'll try to post vids when I can......or at least when the guys at my gym can understand complex machinery.
jammin on the one.

for you......
the windmill, epic win.
think WFD..... cup the ball in your hand/wrist, one spin.....release parallel to ground, severe smashing in your future.
I'll get you a demo vid in a week.

oh.....and a team that throws together, wins together.

so good.

Next tip is this, take charge and count off.
Like this, once you're in an offensive position (more balls than other team), get your teammates calm, then call out a number, they should all then look at the other team and count from left to right. If you call 3....then everyone throws at the  3man, even if that dude moves after you call 3, he's still getting the smash.
Once you do this a few times, it'll get obvious, so just try and keep the number calling to your team.

Makes senses?

we play next Thursday, I'll get you guys a sweet ass vid. You learn lots about dodgeball when you do stuff like this.

More to follow, next time I play....I'll pay attention to some things.

Gym Tonite, I've had a cold the last few days. Finally felt better around 5, so thought I 'd go get something in.....until it caught up with me. That plus, I train with the same guys every Tuesday and Friday, we never miss. Even if its just to come spot, cause good spots get important sometimes.

Box Squats
95,135,185,225 x5
Add 40lbs of swinging kettle bells via mini bands (koji style).
225x5x2, 275x5x2

love those, sometimes its 275lbs, sometimes its 350lbs, all in the same movement, core strength ftw.

Incline bench with 2" bar
95,135,155,175,195,215,235x5, 255x3

Started to snatch, got real tired, real quick, next time.

played soccer tonite in an organized league with an almost legit
team. I'm gonna do this for 8 weeks and call it cardio. I've never
played ever. It's this new thing I'm trying to do more of, getting into
an uncomfortable setting and making it rock.
Figured a few things out.
@32, I feel faster than ever.
Running still sucks.
I'm good at knocking people over.

Squat 149,199,239,278 x5, 316x9

Overheadz 95,135,180,192,205x5

Snatchers 95,105,115,125,135,145,155,165,175x1

Chins, 5x5 mixed up in there somewhere.
This looks much more structured than it does real life.

Jammer.

Vid, I'll work on my technology, and apologies for the length. I read somewhere on here to take the drop and catch out because you dont want to train yourself to dip after a pull.....I like that idea, so I'm rollin' with it.

Plus my real snatch form isnt real awesome anyway.

I drink coffee when I train, but to get to sleep, I always drink a beer afterwards. Tonite is Genny Cream Ale tall boy.

Most misses aren't problems with timing, they're problems with surface choice.  Think big body parts and contact area.  Inside of foot instead of laces, thigh instead of foot, chest instead of head.  Always try to figure out what is the biggest part of you that  you can use to contact the round thing.  I don't know your experience before but avoid one touch balls, ESPECIALLY indoors.  Always try to touch it two or even three times.  As you become more comfortable one touch is more acceptable and nothing to me is more artistic than a string of one touch passes between players, but it takes years of practice.  

Also think about getting it to a person wearing the same color shirt as you as opposed to killing it.   In the end that's what wins matches.
