Review: I'm pooped...but it felt pretty strong despite the lack of sleep due to studying and exams and not that much food. Pork rinds (Delish!) are the recipe to strength I guess.

Might deadlift this Wednesday. Just see how it goes.

I don't.

But on days when ur just super duper stressed and all the weights don't wanna go up and you have your coach screaming beside you "Tarik, LAJU!! Second pull mana!!?" and everybody's weights going pretty much okay....you'll tend to get a lil annoyed and stressed. And if they offer you a smoke, so you just take it.

this allergic reaction is starting to concern me....
it making me look weirder

Erh, I think we'd like to keep it small. Sorry man....not my decision...

Anyway today's workout sucked ass....just kept snatching light to recorrect my technique. I'm using the "frog style" of snatching now so that I can keep my torso straighter instead of having it curved slightly. The difference is immense, but a lot of tweaking is required to use this method. However, the benefits are quite obvious even in such short term because I'm able to sit in a more comfortable position and focus on pulling instead of keeping my torso straight at the last minute.

Power cleaned 70KG and jerked it a bit, nothing significant. Very weak today. Perhaps the entire funeral totally drained me out.

Tmr going back to Bkt Jalil. Hello Sir Martin Tambakau....I think that's my coach's name.....or something martin...

Added on July 31, 2008, 8:33 pmThere's been too many stupid questions and statements in the forum these days.

Ask me anything, and I'll answer them to what I can. I believe answering and asking questions, will help me learn more as well.

I've no idea what you're talking about.
