* sleep pattern messed up but got good recovery. the 405x1 did not feel heavy at all. could get the 425-440 based on the smoothness of the 405. when i was using the 455x1, i could easily tell that id get that top single by how the 405x1 goes up.
* did a 315x4 no-pause just to get some more tonnage for a non-weak day like this. it felt like an empty bar without the pause.

* did not exert much effort to get the full paused 425x1. 405x1 backoff was not very tiring also. not a bad start for the week. tmrw is a 435x1.
* BW consistent for over a week now at 200-204lb.

* i figured out what i was doing wrong in the last 3 weeks with my top heavy set. i could have made some of those 405+ attempts if i didn't screw up my form. with my BW at bloated 200-204s, i was subconsciously not doing a full valsalva because my belly is going to stick out too much.. lol.  :P
* wore my black compression top (enough with the yellow/orange/red for now) and gulp as much air as i can stuff. worked nicely and got 405-435-405 without any problems. will cut every accessory lift and focus on this top heavy set to 455 for the next few days. BW chins and calf raises are ok.

* BW at 199-203lb. its an effort maintaining and improving BW while eating clean. the 440x1 with a full pause got up smoothly. not explosive enough to do the same with 455x1 again but slowly getting there.

* 440x1 from a complete pause again. did not have much trouble with it. back to the routine that got me to the 455s. caloric excess and just consistent lifting of 425-440s. form is as good as it gets.  will see if 18 total 440s is enough reps to get my BW to the 204s again.

Is your sprint test a 30m or 60m sprint?  A 30m is hardly worth for unless your uncoordinated IMO... but it would make sense to concentrate if it was a 60m, would love to see how your training methods would work there.

from the teamusa / bobsled website - 15m, 30m, 45m, 60m sprints. 30m fly. broad jump, shot toss, clean, squat.

i'm doing hill sprints and prowler drills for the running. front squats to prepare for the clean.

maybe work some actual sprints into the training?

i can do hill sprints while i strength train with squats. regular sprints are too taxing on everything - will do them on a cycle for pure speed work.

* 5th straight day of 440x1s. did my workout mid-day to go watch the annual company concert at SF. 440 still not very heavy even with crappy sleep for the last 3 days. probably helped that i've been skipping the calf leg press. if i maintain this pace with the 440s, ill probably be 455 strong again in the 12-16th single.

ohyess.. pitbull. would have been in that front crowd if i knew they were performing. its a no-tell until the actual event.

* the 405x1 went up pretty good. thought about going for the 455x1. was not able to convince myself to do it because my BW was not yet at the 202-204. the 440x1 went up convincingly smooth also. decided to skip the backoff 405 and will go for 455 tmrw afternoon.
* might go 450x1 if the 405 tmrw does not feel light enough.

why'd you stop the front squats?

front squats improves as my back squat improves. will go focus on getting 455-475 in the next couple of weeks.

* BW 202-204. 405x1 was very explosive and completed very smooth and fast.  455x1 from a complete pause. not the strongest 455x1 i've done as i had to dish out a war cry after my midback rounded a bit towards the 1/4 way up. the initial power from the hole already pushed me into that strong-leverage position. i'd take this loud rep from a complete pause that those stealthy silent rep but without that strict momentum kill.
* will only use the 455 top set only if the 405 rep convinces me to go for it. no need to force it everytime as i already know (again) that i got this. will focus more on getting move volumes of 405-425x1s.

Cant wait to see this 475!
Please get it on video too.

i will go for a 475x1 after i get myself strong enough to lift the 425 as explosive as i'm lifting the 405s on my warmup ramping. hopefully in 10 weeks time by aug.
