After a long layoff, I decided to make a fresh start today. After Laurence McConnell great 131 cj at age 65/66, I am convinced that with dedication and smart training I can reach previous strength and beyond. Barring more injury, my plan is to compete again in the Irish Masters in February.
Snatch 30x5; 40x3; 45x2; 50; 52; 55; 57. Very pleased with this. Whatever I get at home I can usually add5 for competiton. With a bit of luck, I dont think it would take me too long to get to 70+kg
clean and jerk 40x3; 50x2' 60; 65; 70; 72; 75. This was tough because i am very rusty.
Rack jerk 40x3; 50x3; 60; 65; 70; 75; 80.
The current irish records for m3 are quite modest, only 65+85 which i should aim for. I am currently 82kg which is 12 kg lighter than last competiton. I should make 85kg for feb.
