Well....New focus (for now), new targets, new plan = new journal

Me: Duncan Sharp, Currently compete in GBPF in 105kg class. Last year all classic (unequipped) but started to lift equipped.

Currently letting some back injuries heal and will be rehabbing as I can.

Competitive focus for rest of 2015 is therefore the bench. Primarily equipped but will be aiming to do both equipped and raw!

Performed excellently on Sunday mate. No doubt much bigger things to come with a little more focused training.

So what sort of program and frequency will you be following on bench only?

My own programme mate. First 4 week block is background strength, equipped technique and Working on explosiveness.

Will be doing three session involving pressing a week. Each with one or two bench variations and accessory stuff.

Main press sessions will be based on

A. Equipped / equipped board / close grip
B. Wide grip speed / shoulder press
C. Tempo raw bench / floor press

Plus a forth session with legs / squats / deads as I can.

There also accessory stuff in each session

I think we have a new candidate for insane mentalist now Ox has gone all sensible. Are you sure you don't want to do two comps a week in different weight classes that seems the next logical step. Huge lifting going on and that bench is just crazy nuts. Looking good mate, keep it up.
