Might have to up the weight on my 5x5 a bit quicker to ensure I'm getting the supercompensation from the volume. 5kg jumps from 150kg onwards to 165kgish I reckon over the next 4 weeks maybe. Bench Press 20kg x10 40kg x8 60kg x5 82.5kg 3x8ish @8,8, 10 100kg x1 @9.5 Last set of 82.5kg John was spotting and reckons I hit 10 reps, I had it at 8. Either way he had to take the bar as I'd lsot all semblance of tightness and was struggling to lock out the bar. Bent over Rows 40kg 5x10 Hammer Grip Lat Pulldowns 20kg 5x10 Wide Grip Lat PD 20kg 2x10 Scapula Rows 6kg 2x10 One Arm Cable Row 12.5kg 2x10 Also did some light cable curls superset with tricep pushdowns for dat dere pump. | ||

 'There was also a sausage in my mouth.' Member 2477, 16481 posts SQ 190, BP 130, DL 235555.0 kgs @ 83kgs UnEq | I disagree with some of the previously mentioned things about deadlift. are you competing soon? perhaps at the classic? if so then leave it until after then. however... you are rounding your back from the start position onwards because your body wants to take some of the load off your weak hamstrings and put in on your "stronger" back, however the hitch at the top could be because your back isn't actually strong enough to extend without the hitch. stiff leg deadlifts will both strengthen your hamstrings and your lower back in the rounded position. this would make you stronger at deadlifting with the same technique as you are now however you might want to consider changing your technique to a less rounded one. if you did choose this option flat back deficits could be joey | ||

next comp I want to enter the platform via zipwire Member 4872, 992 posts SQ 237.5, BP 142.5, DL 265645.0 kgs @ 99kgs UnEq | I've done stiff legs semi regularly before, with no massive impact on my conventional. I've not tried deficits before. However I'm hesitant to work in deficits at this moment in time given that I seemingly cannot flat back from the floor, never mind from a deficit. I'd have to argue that fixing form dysfunction should take the precedence in which case my second deadlift day will be more conventional from the floor focusing on correct form. | ||

'There was also a sausage in my mouth.' Member 2477, 16481 posts SQ 190, BP 130, DL 235555.0 kgs @ 83kgs UnEq | Why not have both sessions doing it properly? Does it matter if it takes a year to have good technique? | ||

Worked on my arch and then tried some feet up 5 count paused bench Bench Press 20kg 2x10 40kg 2x10 60kg x5 80kg 2x5 90kg x1 100kg 2x1 @8, 8.5 105kg F 100kg x1 @9 95kg x4 @10 Lots of work on my arch, and trying not to move once I'm into position. Feet Up CGBP, 5 count pause 60kg x2 70kg x2 80kg x1 @7 90kg x1 @8 100kg x1 @9 Lost my balance on the 100kg and ended up sticking a foot off, but it moved very fast. These felt really tight and solid, other than some instability from having the feet up. Going to bring my grip in on my benching now and see where that gets me. | ||
