85 kg x 5
97.5 kg x 5
97.5 kg x 5
97.5 kg x 5
97.5 kg x 5
97.5 kg x 8
Easy. That said the 8th rep on the last set, was one of my hardest bench reps ever!
Squat:
70 kg x 5
105 kg x 5
125 kg x 5
142.5 kg x 5
165 kg x 5
177.5 kg x 1
Unracked 165 a little low down my back, but just carried on and got the reps. 177.5 was about as difficult as the 170 I did 2 days ago
Pendlay Row:
55 kg x 5
75 kg x 5
80 kg x 5
85 kg x 5
85 kg x 5
Pull ups:

not bad jamie, but think you're going to need to bench a bit more to catch me when i nail 8 reps on the block

I think my bench press numbers are a bit misleading as a gauge of my pressing power. I mean not not many 120 benchers can strict 92.5 kg. I'm still a pretty poor presser though
Have you got a block to practise on?

Bodyweight no shoes in clothes: 98 kg
Need to up my eating game
Strict Press:
40 kg x 5
52.5 kg x 5
62.5 kg x 5
80 kg x 3 fail 4
80 kg x 3
Pretty dissapointed, I wanted 80 x 5 (for a PB match). Did another triple to get a reasonable number of reps in.
Push Press:
60 kg x 3
80 kg x 3
90 kg x 3
102.5 kg x 1 fail 2
Again dissapointed, I wanted 102.5 x 3 for an =PB. Triceps just weren't playing ball today, 1st rep went easily enough, and 2nd I lost just before lockout. Might be the effects of 5 x 5 benching 2 days ago.
Standing Pin Press:
1 lower than last time, eye level this time
60 kg x 5
77.5 kg x 3
Could have grinded a couple more, but want to give my tri's a little break.
15.5" rack pulls:
(same height as I used to train for champions of the future in Jan-March)
70 kg x 5
120 kg x 5
160 kg x 5
Belt, mixed grip
200 kg x 2
220 kg x 5 (no hitching) = PB but more comfortable
Moved rack height to 6 inches above the knee:
200 kg x 1
250 kg x 1
280 kg x 1
300 kg x 1
Just wanted to see what I could grip without straps (mixed grip), couldn't hold onto 300 kg for long though!
Conclusion: s**t pressing, but OK deadlifts. As always lol

Bench Press:
50 kg x 5
70 kg x 5
90 kg x 5
102.5 kg x 1
115 kg x 2
Plan was for a double, maybe a triple if I was feeling strong. 2nd rep was harder than I would have liked so left it at a double. Plan is for 117.5 x 2 next week (PB match), and 122.5 x 1 the week after.
Squat:
70 kg x 5
100 kg x 5
122.5 kg x 5
145 kg x 5
167.5 kg x 5 = PB
185 kg x 1 = PB
185 was right on the limit, so didn't go any heavier today.
Power Clean:
50 kg x 3 + 1 split jerk
60 kg x 3 + 1 split jerk
70 kg x 3 + 1 pressed out split jerk
80 kg x 3
Chris turned up with his resistance bands, so did a couple of light squats, presses and push presses with them.
Pull ups:
BW x 9,9,9,9,9,5 (50 reps) PB
Facepulls: 3 sets
Got everything I wanted today, but I had to work for it! Really want a 190 squat soon

My lower back was feeling a bit fatigued before the workout, but I thought I would just work through it. Set up was good, psyched up well too and I wanted 5 reps. Will take another crack at this in 4 days, and then it will be time to switch squats to a volume day and an intensity day probably.

Keg loading:
55 kg to 56"

I train at a fairly low intensity mate. Normally 5-10 minutes rest before a heavy set. I do quite a lot of exercises too so I guess it adds up.
Gym sessions aren't normally that long, but events are lol. Normally have to eat during the workout.

At least I can rep the 95 kg opening weight huh?
With a little practise I think I will be at 105-110 soon enough

You will get the 105 weight, but will you get the 115?

I would be over the moon to get a 115 axle
You will get the 115 but the question is will you make the 125 ??
