Man. Last night was just one of those nights were the weights felt heavy. I intended to work my way up to a 205lb snatch, but got stuck on 185lbs. Back at it today.

yeah I get that, but the progression makes no sense, most people make 50/90 pound jumps until they get to their working sets. Hop on a program it will be more beneficial to you.

@xcellz Korea general contracting. Not security or anything.
I work with people now that work with Aegis. If you not pulling 70+ dont do it theyre jipping you.
Korea tho is cool ive worked there for 3 years before. They are getting in to cross fit there (booo) but there are a ton of gyms. Just healthy eating is a bit expensive. No Walmarts where i can get $2 a lb chicken breast.. at best it will be like 4.
But asian sweet potatoes >>>>>>>>>>american sweet potatoes /yambs
(If you ever had a Jersey white sweet potato ots a similar consistency and taste)
@boss. Yea i should. But i had never really done a lot of power lifting in my programs prior. Ill pm you soon
Also woke up 189lbs
ive lost 11lbs in 6/7 weeks. All this stress and personal drama going on...but im happy again so hopefully i can get it back to 195

My coach and I was talking about how there's programs that is design for you to prepare for a 1max rep.
You start off with hi reps/sets and 75% of weight
as you get closer to your 1 max rep, you lower the reps/sets and increase the weight
the last 2 weeks, you want to deload so that your body is ready for that 1max rep.
The next 2 weeks for me is going to be really light maybe 60% if that. low numbers of set and low weights.
I can't wait.

Ur talkin DL, I dunno, stop me if I'm wrong but I don't really have a problem with just throwing that weight on there that you think u can hit, in this case 315, and seeing what happens. If it was squat that's different. Bench, throw the plates on there and see what happens if you have a spotter. That's assuming ur in the ballpark and by ur numbers I bet u can pull 3 plates. Tell me if I'm wrong bros.

Marmourjr, do you have a core/accessory/mobility workout that you can recommend for me that I can do twice a week
I want to concentrate on flexibility, core and upper body stability.

Repped just copped
I have too much protein now..
I have like half a tub of orange dymatize which is pretty good and I just got 2 tubs of cookies and cream MP which is alright. It's gonna be hard to finish 10 lbs of that
I was expecting "cookies and cream" like an Oreo but it's chocolate chip "cookies and cream"

Oh Gawd no. Depending on the programming. For instance I may have to focus on Press and Jerks. So at the end I may do 4 x 10 German Sit-up. And maybe split stance overhead tricep extension. This on Monday.
Then Saturday is snatch. Ohs band and hyperextension with weight.
I just put random ones. Depending what you are working on the accessory should follow at the end
