You have to take some of the credit Dan, if you hadn't suggested the Bill Starr Rehab stuff there's no way I would have been back to full fitness yet.

Yes and no Bill, I had been working up to this for a little while with my 5/3/1 routine before the injury. When I did the 220 PB (thanks to you) it was comfortable and I knew there was a bit more in there then, I think if I hadn't got injured then my PB might be 230 or even 235 now.

Rusev said:180x3 and 225x1 deads wow i would say you are getting back to full fitness well done. dont take long and i bet you are rearly enjoying it now. i know i would be.

is that a true lifetime pb or a pb since you been back so to speak


Cheers Rusev

Yes, that's my lifetime PB.
It feels good to be moving on again, my PB was 210 for a long time both gym and comp. I think that will be it for a little while though, I'm gurrently dropping a few pounds of lard and the 225 was right at the edge of what I can do now, there could have been a bit more there if I'd only done a single instead of a double at 200, who knows?

Cheers Mikey
The rehab is the Bill Starr rehab routine for muscle pulls, worked for me although I didn't go as far as using the ice.

Squats
10 x bar
5 x 60 kg
5 x 100 kg
5 x 140 kg
1 x 160 kg

Front squats, SLDL's, power cleans, Ab stuff

The 160 was nice and I fancied putting a bit more on the bar but I'd managed to pull my right arse cheek during warm up, feels like a dead leg now, nothing serious.

Chest and triceps session, nothing worth logging, gym was busy, didn't get to do any flat bench but lots of other sets and reps.

5 x 140 kg

The triple at 200 was ugly and the 220 was horrible but they went up.
