can you do the easier variations with strict form?

worked out with avishek tonight.

WEIGHT: ???
SORENESS: none
ACHES/INJURIES: none
MENTAL STATE: a bit jazzed, underslept, but good day at work. plus working out with someone else always adds a bit of stimulus

- warm up

- SL bound practice
took some cues from avishek, will be modifying these a bit.

- broad jump w/reset x 4
i think this was a PR, ~37

- DL bound x 4,4,4
~37'6, 37, 36'6

- various DSVJ, SLRVJ, DLRVJ, broad jump-to-SVJ
got some video, best jumps were 2-step DLRVJ's later in the session once i started thinking about getting low.

- sprint 40y x 2
avishek timed them. first start got fucked up ran 5.6. second start was good and ran 5.1    also timed him at a 4.7

- race avishek 40y x 2
he beat me by about 4 yards in the first one so on the second gave me a 3y head start and beat me by a yard.

***go to gym***

- light warm up

- LB pause squat 275 x 5,5
fuck high bar.

- circuit x 2
-- SL hyper x 10
-- pull up x 8,8(+6)
-- DB OHP 40s x 10
-- ab pull down x 20

- stretch

great workout. i have not gotten enough sleep the last two nights but it was good to work out with avishek. he's faster and jumps higher and has more practice with bounds and shit so that's helpful.

will post some vids later.

This guy's channel is full of good stuff:

it's alright, man. same thing happened to me yesterday.

WEIGHT: 176
SORENESS: none
ACHES/INJURIES: none
MENTAL STATE: annoyed, frustrated

- warm up

- snatch drills
doing better on keeping the bar and getting under with light weights (up to 26kg

- power snatch
up to 40, was trying to get under but not so good with heavier weights.

- paused HB squat 280 x 3; aw;oeinva;svna;ijha;
bar pressing onto spine, felt weak. got lightheaded. did a couple more squats but they don't fucking count. ugh.

ran out of time, was at work way longer than i should have been thanks to a very frustrating conversation with my boss that went on FOREVER. fuck it, just chalk it up as a throwaway workout. sometimes the bear eats you.

The pressure that I feel on the knees using the high bar squat is basically in another league vs. low bar.

if you mean that in a bad way, then just stick to low bar. or maybe try paused HB? it's a general exercise either way.

also, i forgot to mention, last thurs when i was doing my sprints this group of HS kids walked past and one of 'em started walking over to me. dialogue follows:

high-ass kid: ey mang, i bet you ten dollars i can beat you in a race
lbss: yeah man, i bet you can beat me, too
h-ak: nah mang i'm, i can beat you
lbss: yeah, that's right, i'll bet against myself. i don't have any cash right now but otherwise i'd bet you ten dollars you could beat me in a race
h-ak: aight i bet you ten dollars you can beat ME
lbss: got no money, can't bet. next time, though.
**h-ak walks back toward his friends, who are still ambling down the track. h-ak continues talking over his shoulder.**
h-ak: iss nice to meet you mang
lbss: nice to meet you, too
h-ak: i luh you mang
**everyone laughs**
h-ak's friend: man shut the fuck up and get over here
