    5k bike ride

    I was slow on the bike ride today, should improve quickly. I would like to work up to doing the LSUS weightlifting program, It seems to have a lot of the elements I am looking for in a program.
    It is fairly high volume so I will add sets and training days over a few weeks. It is basically 10/5/3/peak linear periodisation. My weightlifting club is hosting a competition on august 5 or 6 so ill plan to peak for that.

    Done for this week I think. Program calls for 5 days with 3 sets of each exercise each day. Days 1 and 2 are heavy strength/bodybuilding, 3 and 4 are light versions of 1 and 2. Day 5 is exclusively Olympic lifts. I think Ill do next week as a transition week, without all the sets and light days. The week afterwards will have the full volume. The transition is needed IMO since I am also currently adjusting to bike riding, to do 5 days in a week I will need to bike 50k total.

    Competition is August 5 or 6. This gives me the transition week, 3 weeks of 10 reps, 3 weeks of 5 reps, 3 weeks of 3 reps, 2 weeks of 2 reps, then the competition week. Exercises will get more specific to Olympic lifting as time goes on.

    biking is fantastic for warming up but seems to kill flexibility around the knee. Ill have to foam roll more than I used to.

    Biking is getting easier and easier. Replacing pullups with dumbell rows, golfers elbow has been bothering me.

    Snatch 120 x18
    C+J 165 x12

    Missed one workout this week, but still got in 4 days of biking. Should be good to go to 5 days next week.

    brought out snatch grip about 4 inches, feels much more solid in the bottom of the squat.

    Planning to go to club practice on the dedicated Olympic lifting days so I get consistent coaching. Coach said today I should plan to split jerk in competition. Ill power jerk on push days and split on Olympic only days.
