‘downsizing’ Member 5704, 3226 posts SQ 280, BP 210, DL 320810.0 kgs @ 96.3kgs UnEq | Post Edited: 03.04.2018 @ 21:04 PM by matthewvc Very little sleep last night and a long day in office.Bench comp grip Bar x loads 60 x 8 85 x 4 105 x 3 125 x 1 145 x 6 - all paused 140 x 6 - feet up last 2 paused 140 x 6 - feet up about 4 reps paused 4.5 inch board close grip paused 120 x 6 150 x 5 - hard. triceps fried. line all over place JM press 100 x 6 100 x 6 pulldown 4 sets of 12 reps down to 8 with stack Triceps pushdowns 1 set 15 1 set 12 Crap tonight. Extremely tired and poor hydration. Going to switch close grip boards to first exercise next week as it's a real weak point for me, would not be surprised if 400lbs was a real effort even if fresh and the first exercise. Considering my full range close grip is about 50lbs more it highlights how much improvement is needed. Edit - standard 3 board is 6 inches not 4.5 as the one I'm using is. from now on will name the inches (as they're marked like this at catts) | ||

‘downsizing’ Member 5704, 3226 posts SQ 280, BP 210, DL 320810.0 kgs @ 96.3kgs UnEq | Last deload of week Squats - bent whippy bar bit nicer on shoulders than the other stiffer bar. Bar x loads 60 x 3 - sleeves 90 x 2 120 x 2 120 x 1 150 x 2 175 x 2 - belt 195 x 2 - loose wraps 215 x 3 Paused 180 x 3 200 x 3 pulldowns 3 sets 5 GM Bar x 5 60 x 5 - bar kept rolling up neck Better with a safety or camber bar Descended too fast on 215kg and felt ragged will get away with it so light, but put 600lbs+ on there and it'll be ugly. pauses slowed down a little much tighter and better controlled. much better. | ||
