My highbar squat PB was done before Smolnov so it might be a bit higher. Rick - Won't be in tonight mate, having a few days off but I should be down to Adlington soon enough. Joni - had I remembered your PB was 165 I would have gone 167.5, thats what friends are for. Kick you when you're crippled. You're Joni's friend? | ||

Gone squatting Member 12, 386 posts SQ 250, BP 155, DL 260665.0 kgs @ 90kgs UnEq | Post Edited: 11.01.2009 @ 20:12 PM by Adam Saturday 10th JanuaryToday was max out day at the end of the Smolnov cycle, what a session it turned out to be. My 1 rep max at the start of the Smolnov cycle was 220k, at the end of the first phase I got a 225 raw squat, 227.5 with knee wraps. I was expecting about 230, maybe 235. I was in for a shock. All squats were done with just the belt. Decided not to use knee wraps today. I had someone watching depth from 220 onwards, all were a good inch below parallel. He's a right little depth Nazi as well. Squats 60k x 5 100k x 5 140k x 3 180k x 1 200k x 1 220k x 3 Rep PB 230k x 3 PB 240k X 1 PB 245k x 1 PB 250k x 1 PB Rather bizarre moment in the session came when one of the lads in the gym found out I was vegan. After witnessing my 250k squat he informed me that I was protein deficient and damaging my health. Sigh. Deadlifts 60k x 5 100k x 3 140k x 3 180k x 1 220k x 1 240k x 1 260k x 1 PB Wasn't sure about whether to go for the deadlift after 240, so ended up flipping a coin. It stalled in exactly the same place as the one at Adlington (and long enough for me to think, f**k I failed in the same place again) but managed to lock it out this time. Thanks to Tommy for calling depth, spotting and just generally listening to me complain about everything and anything for no reason other than that I like to complain. Finished. Best session of my life. Thank you Smolnov. | ||

Just to echo what has already been said here, but I think you have put more work into your squatting than has ever been witnessed on this forum, and the gains are clear to see! | ||
