he's got betty davis eyes Member 1684, 6001 posts SQ 250, BP 186, DL 291 727.0 kgs @ 118kgs UnEq	Cheers guys. Had fun today. The timed set on the deadlifts was a killer. Wish I had gotten 20 now. Think fresh I could do 30+ think I am gonna do at least 1 timed set of something a week to help conditioning. Neil, you are right about my head being my worst enemy. I think having bench and dips etc back in training will help OH. Leg drive is improving from the fronties and if I can get another couple of inches of drive I think the push press would jump up a fair bit.

It will come. I find that front bar is better for a max as grip is better with or without straps but side handles is a lot easier for reps (although you wouldn't guess it by the state of my set) I very rarely do side handles generally and its the first time I have ever dont them from 18". I think with practice they would end up a lot higher than front bar due to more natural position. Neil is right, my girly hands are the limiting factor on these, I cant seem to do them with straps. When are you getting a journal on the go anyway Nick, I am keen to see your progress as you seem to have a lot of potential

Choked up and nauseus Cambered bar squat 70x6 70x6 120x6 170x1 went and was sick twice 200x1 200x1 200x1 felt weak and horrible, ate a couple of protein bars between 200 sets Zerchers 70x6 120x4 150x3 150x3 150x3 6" Defecit Deadlifts 70x3 120x3 170x1 block height and the thickness of the soles on my boots meant I managed to drop the bar on my feet. fking sore. 200x1 220x1 PB 240x1 PB SLDL 200x4 200x4 Left feeling much better than I arrived

he's got betty davis eyes Member 1684, 6001 posts SQ 250, BP 186, DL 291 727.0 kgs @ 118kgs UnEq	Pleased with it given I felt like s**t and had not eaten for 6 and a half hours when I started. Thet must be a PB in its self Defecits were tough to get down to, still a bit stiff from Sunday and the bar was sitting on my feet at the bottom position. Hoping that being able to pull a decent amount from foot height will help with stones.

Still got a little bit of strength Member 400, 22233 posts	Good work. Well done on the 282.5 dead lift. 18" side handle deads sound like heaven to me!
