EDCLARKE said:30k x20 is good work mate and sounds like a deadlift pb is on the horizon,170x4 gave me 200k get it done


will do mate! The problem will be controlling my excitement and not attempting a pb too soon. When I get up to 180-185 for a triple will be the right time to try for the big 200 I think. I think I'd be good for maybe 185 or a bit more just now.
The bench was tough, but not an absolute balls out effort, despite me nearly losing it on rep 19. I'm not quite ready for 35 for 20 yet though.

I'm still training mate, just no attempts on any of the targets here. For example I did a session of sprints and a faster 20 minute run. I also did some squat clean and presses, squats, chins, db benches but none of it was a direct attempt on any of my targets so I didn't bother putting it up.
This afternoon, I'll be doing this:
squat: work up to 120 for 5
db bench:35s for as many as possible (hopefully a good dozen)
curls: 43 for 8
deads:172 for a triple (or more)

These are the aims but none of them are on my list of targets directly so I wasn't going to put them up (but I did it just for you mateHappy ). Maybe I'll film something anyway just for your viewing pleasure.

I walked out 200kg and held it for a bit today. It made me realise what a lot of weight it is. By extension, I can't imagine what 300kg for example must feel like.

Cheers beard. It was much easier than 100 for 20 surprisingly. Here it is, marvel as I stiff-leg it upHappy

I could actually see myself getting up towards the top of this ladder at some point in the future (certainly compared to squats for example)

In other news I decided to swap my 10 rep chins for 5 reps because 10 reps are a right c**t.

I aim to please. That was my nephew behind the camera. He has just started training with me, which make a change from training on my own.

Interesting day today. I trained this afternoon, but nothing too heavy, a few squat and chins. I then felt like going in again this evening and filmed a few sets.
I worked up to a 142 squat in jeans and a belt. Nothing earth shattering, but it is certainly a pb since I started squatting narrower and a bit deeper.

I then tried a few one-armed db bench (in an attempt to overcome the problem of getting two bells into position.) Feels hard and certainly more difficult than two bells. I might stick with it for a bit and see how it goes.

EDIT: spelling

There will be a slight interruption for the next couple of months because I have just taken on the mighty Ed in a squat challenge at the end of August. Ed is heading for 400lbs. I am currently on a measly 142 kilos. 40 kilos in two months is a big ask, but I have a couple of advantages over Ed.
-I am far younger and therefore there is a good chance his old bones won't be able to take the heat.
-Ed works a lot. I am on holiday a lotHappy
-I already showed Ed (and Neil) who is boss in our bench press challenge a while ago. And although following this competition Neil went on a bike ride and never returned and neither Ed nor I have benched again, I know that Ed is in fear of my superior competitive abilities Happy

So for the next couple of months, I will be putting in some time at the rack and putting some squat videos on this thread. Ed, I'm coming for you.
