How you likin' the speed work Marvo?

What was actually wrong with your arm? Elbow? Shoulder? Something else? I'm having some trouble with my right arm and was wondering what's up with yours.

Later,
Jeff

Gday Jeff

The speed work has been a nice change, I am becoming more explosive each week. How did you find it? You were doing dynamic and max effort work if I remember correctly. I pulled something in the elbow area doing bombs off a tarzan rope into a pool. Then every couple of weeks I would agravate it doing rows. Whats up with your arm m8?

Props go out to Eric for all his help.

Sunday 27th jan
Volume Day

Squat 152.5kg 5x3
Bench 100kg 2x5,1x4,1x3
Chins BW 3x8,1x7

Thanks Eric for all your help. I have been working on squating in 1 smooth motion and incorporating all your advice. It has helped dramaticly, I am feeling much more comfortable now. It was so much harder getting out of the hole before. I will post another vid soon. Thanks again mate. This speed work seems to be paying off also. Bench was the same as the last volume day. I might try and bench 100kg 5x4 next week.

MaRvO.

Hey Marv,

I only did speed bench for about 8 weeks, and I liked it as well. It didn't help my max strength, but I did become more explosive for sure. Now that I haven't done any speed work in a while, I notice I've become slower.

I'm not sure what's wrong with my arm. I can tell I've got a messed up right RC, and something is wrong with my right elbow. They've both been with me for months now, and they're just not going to get any better on their own. I'm seeing an apparenlty "great" physio guy on 4 February, so hopefully he can point me in the right direction. It's really starting to get to me. Nothing is more annoying than having some sort of injury.

Good numbers btw mate. It seems like heavy squatting is really becoming your thing.

Cheers,
Jeff
