Ed 's training journal

open up on somthing easy and sink that MOFO ,then i think they would give you that depth for a second lift ,but fail it on a 3rd

I know for a fact that the North West refs are partial to a croissant or two... you better sink that opener real deep.. leave a stain on the floor

squats looked solid to me mate; Good stuff

Thanks for the imput folks ,especially Littler's foxy chick!

trained at the farm today ,good to meet Lurkio ( i can vouch for his seriously bruised thigh) and see Finch and the rest of the Farm crew!

as per my instructions from Mr Kendrick kept the deadlifts light and tried to concentrate on driving through my heels and not engaging my back too early! Trained with a 14 year old lad ,and I was quite suprised to find I did'nt want to punch him every time he open his mouth,so either he was a nice lad or I'm becoming more tolerant of teenagers ,I suspect the former!

deadlifts 160k 3/3/3/3/3/3/3

then some of the s**test benching I have evere done in fact it was so s**t I'm not even going to log it!

Good to train with you on Bench Ed. Don't beat yourself up over it mate, we all have off days, and besides training with new people, the video on the go, and a nice long 'paused' bench attempt all added to it.

Young Ashley is a good lad when he concentrates on what he's doing. If he nuckles down with it, I reckon he'll do well. Either that or he'll discover girls soon and disappear!

I know what you mean though, I usually want to punch all teenagers!

Interesting on the deadlifts. So what's the plan now then? Only 2 weeks to go. I'm going to do heavy bench on Monday, absolutely nothing on Wednesday and then work up to each opener on the Friday (150/105paused/210) then maybe the Tuesday after do some extremely light work just to keep the groove there.

probably looking to double my openers next week, probably looking at 140 205/210 and 95/100 bit undecided about my bench openers afters last night's fiasco! still trying to figure out how much caffeine I'm going to need for that 257.5l deadlift!

Quite a lot I would say!

That's the reason I'm plumbing for the 210 opener. Figure I'll probably be knackered by the time I get to DL so I want to go for 227.5 on my second attempt.

thats my plan scuppered then I was hoping to put you under pressure by going for 227.5k second lift and getting it!then 232.5k and crack pipe glory on the third!

Then it looks like I'll be joining you on the crack pipe rollercoaster ride!

Careful you lads don't end up bombing trying to beat each other

operation squat continues in 5 minutes todays target 140/150/160 singles to depth!

double bombing !!

now that would be a day to remember !

its not where you start , its where u finish !!

The phrase 'all the tea in China' somehow seems appropriate to but out there

Hope you had funs qauting today; 'balls deep'!!!
