Friday 4th December

Raw Deads
6 x 60kgs
3 x 100kgs
1 x 140kgs
1 x 160kgs
1 x 170kgs
1 x 190kgs
1 x 210kgs

F x 230kgs

Strict Press
20 x 10kgs
6 x 40kgs
3 x 60kgs
1 x 70kgs
F x 80kgs

Notes
f**king s**t. 1st attempt at 230kgs was poor, 2nd one I got it to my f**king knees and lost it. Gutted. Got it on my phone so will try and figure out how to get it on here.
Strict pressing was crap, right forearm is badly swollen and I wasnt really trying.
Feel like my training is just drifting along aimlessly at the minute, need to get back into it and get cracking for the comps next year.

Cheers mate.

Just to add to my s**tty training of late, im going to have to take this week off due to exams.

Might do me good I suppose. Get back into it on the 14th and hopefully make Olympic on the 20th.
