Tomorrow will do Alas Pete, accepting the Queen's commission comes with responsibilities - namely the 7 years return of service I owe and can only realistically get out of by 1.) Failing medical school 2.) Becoming disabled and/or dying. I think they play polo in the army - would that placate you?  | ||

Hey Joni, unfortunately not. Bench is a bit of a funny one, performances are as follows: February 08 - 110Kg paused, in the NW unequipped bench (weight 71.1Kg) April 08 - 102.5Kg paused, in NW unquipped (weight 66.3) May 08 - 102.5Kg paused, British unequipped bench (weight 66.5Kg or so) Wednesday's effort of 112.5Kg was a 2.5Kg increase on my best touch-and-go bench (I weighed myself at 70.1Kg post work out). I don't know how much of it is psychological to be honest, but it would seem that my bodyweight seems to play quite a considerable part in my bench. | ||

I was looking for an income. I'd have seen you right though Sam, small blondes, chip butties, all could have been yours. | ||

Travelling hot nurse Member 240, 75 posts SQ 140, BP 107.5, DL 185432.5 kgs @ 67.2kgs UnEq | Monday 07 JUL 08 Deadlift 60x5x2 100x3x2 140x3x1 185xFAIL 155x3x5 One arm row 32.5x10x3 Lat pull downs 50x10x3 Stiff leg DL 60x8 65x8 70x8 A thoroughly disappointing session. I was absolutely devastated not to even get one rep on 185Kg - it came up slow and I failed to lock it out. I found it pretty hard psychologically to come back after that, although I did get some inspiration from an ex-lifter (Burt Owens, lifted during the 60s and 70s) and realised that I just had to put the failure behind me, and move on. | ||
