Really love training at the moment, especially the GPP part, I'm planning on competing at an IronMaster Challenge this year. It includes a timed 100 rep snatch test (weight can be chosen by yourself), and a max Get-Up attempt (both sides combined for a total). Based on the results you can achieve a certain score. First of all, I have to get my tendon under control though, my cousin (a physiotherapist) prescribed 3" count curls, while keeping constant tension on the biceps, furthermore, I'll follow the advice from Anna C and focus on extending my elbow fully while catching the bell with my hips on the downward part of a swing/clean/snatch.

So basically my training will look similar to what those last two sessions looked like, a short strength part, followed by GPP and fluff work. Two 2 days of training, follow by an "off" day, on which I'm doing Maffetone cardio for 60-90', either on the bike, in the pool, or on the road. The Maff work really helped me to easily keep my cardio on track.

Diet is the usual, I'm at around 87kg, fairly lean and probably as muscular as I've ever been, so no changes in that compartment.

And, if anyone is interested, I've recently started studying medicine, which was my dream for quite some time, and I'm really content with how everything turned out.

Good luck with your medicine dream.

Today
Clean&Puch Press

Btw. stopped using chalk, cause it just tears the skin apart after about 10-15 sets, works way way better without chalk for now. For handy singles it's a completely different story though.
 
Clean&Push Press
2x28kg
110 reps

I can see now, why you should take the days inbetween off, fatigue really creeps up on me, especially if I just slightly work my shoulder girdle on the day off.
So I'll refrain to OS on the days off, should make it easier on my system.

Thanks @Whosonfirst! Think I've got a solid base of strength but the patience of a small child, which could be problematic in the longterm :D.
 
15' of loaded carries with a 24kg Bell
switching from overhead to rack to farmer carry. Alternating sides shortly before failure.

OS resets
few Gi-Pullups
TGU and Snatch with a 36 for a few reps
 
Felt really strong today! The 6 rep sets still kick my a#@ though, they're just that much harder compared to shorter sets.

Clean&Push Press
2x28kg
120 reps
30'

OS+Pushups
 
Did a BJJ mobility workout by Steve Cotter, and really enjoyed it. Trying to get a solid deep squat stance for grappling.

Goblet Squats
Wall Squat (facing against wall) - played around in this position, my ankle/hip flexibility still prevents me from being comfortable or stable in this position but I'll get there.
Bottom-up press in deep squat, normal presses in squat
a few heavy snatches to round things off
 
Numbers keep going up and the workouts become more solid. Thought about maybe uploading a set or two, to get a lil form check.

Clean & Push Press
2x28kg
125 reps
