SQ 220, BP 175, DL 285
680.0 kgs @ 74kgs UnEq
7/7/12

Squats
60kg x 5
80kg x 5
100kg x 5
120kg x 3
140kg x 2
160kg x 1
180kg x 1
190kg x 1
200kg x 1

200kg was a real grind today but I've started going really deep as I don't think parallel will be good enough for the refs at the worlds! PB in comp is 190kg so I want 200kg to be my banker by the worlds.

Squats continued!
140kg x 5
160kg x 5
180kg x 4

Front squats
60kg x 5
100kg x 5
120kg x 5
130kg x 3 - no more left in the tank!

Bench
60kg x 5
80kg x 5
100kg x 5
120kg x 3
140kg x 1 (2sec pause)
155kg x 1 (2 sec pause) felt really comfy
162.5kg x FAIL (disappointed with this)
140kg x 5 (pause on last)
120kg x 12 (pause on last)

Tricep extensions
45kg x 10 x 4

Didn't feel great today. Everything felt heavy from the start so I'm gonna put it down to one of those days! Don't usually spend that long in the gym but I'm on holiday at the moment so thought I'd get some volume in!

Looks alright for an off day Paul.

Is the build up for the Classic underway now?

You'd think so mate. IPF refs are strict at the best of times but apparently they're extra strict at internationals. I don't want to take any chances and end up getting squats failed!

What you can guarantee is that parallel is a minimum so all records should be that at least. It is really frustrating though at times. At the Commonwealths I saw a number of squats that looked parallel failed.

Cheers Luke. I was just disappointed at how hard 200k felt on the squat. Also, I,ve benched 162.5 recently so the aim is to consolidate it but it wasn't happening today.

Yes mate, I'm starting to work towards the Classic now. I've got 8 weeks and would like to aim for the following lifts in comp: 200kg squat (minimum), 157.5 / 160 bench, 272.5 / 275 Deadlift. Current PB total in comp is 611kg so will be looking for 630+ hopefully (fingers crossed!).

I'll look out for you mate. You should enter, you'd probably get a medal if you total around 500kg. It's a great comp as well- loads of atmosphere.
