Welcome to my log!

 

  My name is Joel Peer and this is my mediocre attempt at logging my gym and field excursions. First and foremost I should give some background info.

Height: 5'10"

Weight: 194

 -GYM-

Front Squat- 245lbs

Push Press- 185lbs

Dead lift- 325lbs

Power Clean- 185lbs

 -FIELD-

BS- 25'3"

OS- 31'4"

LWFD- 44'6"

HWFD- 18'

Light Hammer- 64'9"

Heavy Hammer- ?

WFH - ?

 

So I haven't lifted or thrown anything since early Nov. because of a faulty appendix, so we'll see what I do now. It should be exciting and possibly funny. I have yet to actually to compete in any games so all these throws are practice. Before August of this year I have never thrown anything other than typical sports objects (football, baseball) and occasional tape balls into the trash can. I wrestled and played baseball in High School and that’s it. So here is my log which will start tomorrow.

Good stuff man!  Bring it on down to North Texas in February and we'll get you sorted out...thinking there might even be a clinic.
 
Solid start.  Decide how good you want to be.

Ok, first day back in the gym after 8 weeks off. Not to shabby but will be sore tomorrow. But it's a good sore. I took it easy so as to feel out my battle scars and weak muscles.
 
  -Front Squat-
 warm up: 2 sets of 6 w/ 95lbs.
 2x6 w/ 135lbs
  -Barbell Rows-
2x8 w/ 95lbs.
  -Push Press-
2x8 w/ 95lbs
  -Dead lifts-
2x6 w/ 155lbs.
  -DB Shrugs-
2x8 w/ 65lbs.
  -Core-
Medicine ball throws
 
Pretty good start for me. I will finish up this week and all of next week with this workout to get back into the swing of things. I might add weight next week, not sure yet.

 Such a nice day I had to go see how much I lost on my distances.

BS - average 23'7"
LWFD - average 38'
LH - average 60'

So I lost some distance but it is workable. I should be back in no time. Not to mention that my legs have been screaming at me all day long. Next time I am gonna try and video some and will post them.

Threw O Stone and light hammer this afternoon. I am kinda excited because I was throwing about were I left off 8 weeks ago. I videoed my session and I must say, this is the first time viewing myself throw and I have a lot to work on. I mean a lot.

I am in the process of putting it all together and I will post tonight or tomorrow.

I thought it is January? 66 degrees today, so I went to throw.....in shorts, YES!

Watched a lot of Matt Vincent videos and then went to the park all fired up.

numbers time:
13#hammer: averaged 77', long 80'
LWFD: averaged 40', long 41'6"
O Stone: averaged 30', long 31'6" PR
Braemar: averaged 23', long 24'4"

So all in all had a good day. I reweighed my hammer before adding weight and it actually was at 8 pounds. So I threw in the 90's with an 8 pound hammer. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAH, man that's not good. But gettin' better every time I go out.

Today was the day that everything just felt wrong.

It was so freakin cold and the wind was blowin 90 miles an hour. I tryed to throw some hammer and LWFD, but everything seemed to fall so short. It was just a bad day.

I finally got my kilt today too, but it is a little long. I guess thats better than being short, hahhaha.

Gonna hit the gym tomorrow with some deads and tear it up.

Windy day for throws, but I needed to go out. Average day I guess. Didn't get to throw my hammer cause I broke it on the first throw.LOL

Ostone - average 31'5", long 31'10" woohoo
Braemar - average 24'1", long 24'3"
LWFD - average 39', long 39'Disapprove

Yeah, I'm going a little crazy on the emoticons

I don't know what my deal is, I can't seem to get goin' on my LWFD. Frustrating, not to mention I broke the chain on my home made jobby, so now I can't practice hammer or LWFD until I get em fixed.

Threw at the park today.

Ostone- average: 31'4", long 32'9" PR

Yeah baby, I videoed it and honestly have no idea why I threw well. I still have to keep my right foot turning and I am still throwing at about a 60 to 70 degree angle up! So I think if I bring it down and get that right foot turning, I will be happy. Then I need to work on the hips and shoulders. One thing at a time right.

Trip to hardware store today and picked up a few items. Needed a better WFD system and don't have the money until tax return to buy good stuff. So I spent 20 bucks and created  my implement. I only have about 20lbs in weights, so another trip to the second hand store and I should be good to go.

Field today, doin a little work.

Light Hammer: best of 66' PR
Braemar: best of 25"

STORY TIME!!!

If I am lyin' i'm dyin'! I was in the middle of throwin hammer and this orange SUV pulls up on the other side of the park. Dude gets out in full getup! Kilt, sporran etc... then gets a bagpipe outta the back seat. He walks down to the basketball court (about 60yds from me) and starts marching and playing. "Scotland the Brave", "Amazing Grace", and other tunes. So, it was a very awesome moment. Don't even know if the guy even noticed me, and then he was gone.

Took the caber to the park today.
DANG!!!! it took me freakin 4 tries to even pick it! But once I got the hang of it, I was pretty constant.

Never turned it in about 15 tries but got close twice. Found out that the faster I stopped and pulled, the more height I got. I hit about 75 degrees twice. Once again, I forgot to bring the video camera. Gonna stick it in my truck and leave it there. Had a fun day of watching people laugh at me.

Field Day
 
Went to the park to practice some more caber witha friend of mine. So we got the caber outta the truck and stood it up. Buddy was holding the caber up as I was stretching. Don't know what he was doing but all I hear is "WATCH OUT!!!!" As I turn around I see this massive log coming towards me. I threw my hands up as I was getting out of the way. BAM! the caber hits my right arm right in my tricep. HOLY $&@#! I seriously though it broke my arm. I think it'll be okay, just a little sore and gonna be bruised most likely. Gonna take it wasy this weekend and hopefully be back at it on monday.
 
such is life

What is it about people that they must come up to me and ask if I am almost done on the squat rack when there are 2 other ones that are not being used at that time. Angry
After me telling them that I just started, they move to the other rack and do curls or squats with 225 on and going down a quarter of the way. AngryAngry
 
anyway, good workout

moved weight fast today i might add, might be because it's not a lot of weight, ha

Ostone practice today. Worked on form and hittin my points.

averaged 33' long 33'6"

funny thing, slowed down a little on one throw, hit my point and threw about 80%, darn rock went 33'. Shocked I tried it again but pushed 100%, dang thing went 33'. Can't figure it out. I should be pushin' 40 feet by my calculations.

Crunched numbers last night, evaluated, thought it over and decided what my goal distances are for this year that I will try and reach. Some of these goals are close to my PR's but, I want to hit them consistently.
 
KEY: first distance is my current PR, second distance is my goal for consistency
 
Ostone: 35', 37'
Braemar: 27', 29'
HWFD(42lbs): 31', 34'
LWFD: 51', 55'
HH: 56', 61'
LH: 80', 86'
Sheaf(16lbs): 22', 24'
WOB(42lbs): 13', 14'
Caber: 11:00, 12:00
 
Hopefully I can be consistent at these distances by the end of the year. So those of you that have helped me before, get ready for the bombardment of questions that is to come, ha.

Worked a little LWFD tonight. Figured out that my weight actually weighs in at 33lbs, not 28. SO, i dropped a 5lb plate, = 28lbs, go figure.

with 33lbs- average 42'
with 28lbs- average 49'

I was wondering why I threw 51' at NTKG and then threw42' tonight, ha

Well, to get ready for my world domination, I maxed on bench and squat. Not suprised on the bench considering that I haven't bench in the last 3 years except a few times in the last 6 months.
 
-Bench-
1x8xbar
1x3x135lbs
1x1x185lbs
1x1x205lbs <------1RM
-Back Squat-
1x8xbar
1x3x135lbs
1x2x185lbs
1x2x225lbs
1x1x245lbs
1x1x265lbs
1x1x275lbs<-------1RM
 
I was suprised on the squat, I might have been able to get 285, but decided that was enough.
 
I am gonna use my old max for front squat-245lbs for my workset % for that exersice.
I am also gonna use my old clean max-185 for workset %, and then 185 for push press as well.
Will hit gym tomorrow or sunday and max on deads and snatch.

Decided to wipe clean the last two weeks and start over, for 2 reasons.

1. Didn't even finish the first week and didn't get to start the second weekbecause of the stupid flu. Already behind the power curve.
2. If I start fresh next week with 3.1 week 1, that puts me at my peak in the middle of OCT. If NTH are gonna hold LW's, then that would be perfect for me go and show these 190's what this rookie can do, hahah.
 
that's all for now.

AAAAAHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!

So frustrated today. Rainy as ever, so no stones or HWFD. So I took it as a sign to work on LH.
I don't know what it is. I put everything I had into the final throws and still only ended up hittin 76'7". Everything else seems to be in check and moving right along. I guess I can't complain, that's not bad for a new guy, right? I keep comparing myself to other people and I told myself I was not going to do that. Just gettin' into that competitive spirit I suppose.

Post some video over in throwing forum. The gang can be really helpful if they have video.

If it helps to be competitive, you can benchmark using my log. I have no throwing background, started about the same time you did, and our numbers are comparable, with me being a smidgen ahead in some events - which should make me a good rabbit to chase for a while. And I bet we have similar questions based on our progression.

Can't say whether whether we're doing well or not, but we'really doing it.

If you have the option, get one with slomo replay.   It's HIGHLY enlightening (or disturbing), depending upon your perspective, to watch replays on the field and see your suckiness unfold slow enough to see it yourself.

Threw with some good friends and made some new friends today. 

Braemar- 27' 8" PR
Ostone- 37' 6" PR
HWFD(42lbs)- 32' 2" PR
LWFD- 45'

Good throws today. Had a 29' braemar, but fouled. Couldn't get LWFD under control, I was all over the place, hit a 45 footer that didn't even get above head height. If I would have got it right, it would have gone 53'+. My average Ostone is goin' up from 33' to 35', rock on.

Thanks man, I am sure we will be neck and neck for a long time. That's just what I do, make some good gains, then plateau, then more gains, freakin roller coaster bro.
