GOALS January-2012

FLEXIBILITY

I suspect I am only getting down to 80/85% on most sets, thanks to a lifetime of sitting at a desk and maybe 10 years of doing a quasi powerlift squat.

I have bought a video camera to check depth/form.

I have searched the internet high and low and there are not too many pages where one can find videos of exercises/stretches designed to promote flexibility for an Olympic squatting. This looks like the best:

Flexibility Exercises for the Lower Body in Olympic Weightlifting

WEIGHTS

Current Squat EM (Early Morning) PR = 132.5kg.
Current Deadlift PR = 170 kg.

Target range for squat: 140-150kg.
Target range for deadlift: 180-190kg.

I will strive for the upper end of the ranges but I am not sure how long my body will require to break through the dark times when they arrive - yesterday may have been the onset?
