Why did you switch grip and stance?

It was because of my belt giving me grief. Felt like it would hurt less with a sumo grip and I didn't feel unable to breathe with a sumo lift. Did not help much though so I went back to Conventional style without the belt.

I switched grip because I couldn't hold on to 170kg double overhand

No unless I'm pronounced dead at the scene I'll do the Preston comp. If I die due to complications through the week then our lass might have to drive me there but I'll still do it for the craic.

Was too late when called Jason this morning.
If anyone pulls out I'm on reserve. But will need to know by the end of the week.

I should have just put my name down originally.

Looking for other comps in the mean bean.

Ta mate. Love Zercher Squats. I don't have the flexibility at the moment for clean style front squats so zerchers it will be to work the Quads.

The next time i'm off on a Sunday! What a s**tter.
Not this Sunday but the Sunday after I'm finally off. So looking hopeful for then!

90kg x 4 PB! Yes get in there! 5th rep was almost there too.

Okay So I still have a bit of a cough left over from the chest infection thing so thats a bit of an annoyance more than anything really.

Deadlifts and OH press. Not much volume tonight. Sluggish and dark and cold lol

Didn't have enough plates to do the 200kg challenge so had to settle with what I had on a nice uneven, slanted driveway. (Any excuse)

Deadlift Just chalk, no belt or straps. All mixed grip.

50kg x 8
90kg x 5
130kg x 5
186kg x 7 (followed the rules of the 200kg challenge) Was hoping for 10 Unhappy

Clean into OH Press one clean

50kg x 5
70kg x 5


Fin

Next time I will nail 186k for 10 or if I get to a gym 200kg x 5 Grin

Had a superb session today in the garage. Kicked my arse and set some all time PB's. Very pleased.

Squats Deep as always. Raw as always.

50kg x 5 beltless from here
50kg x 5
102kg x 5
142kg x 5 (Felt death heavy on 5th rep, weird)
170kg x 3 (belt on. PB! Never managed 3 reps on 170kg before. Carb Party at my place),
130kg x 8 (no belt)

Calf Raises

130kg x 5
130kg x 5

Clean and Press one clean each set.

50kg x 5
70kg x 5
82kg x 4 (another PB!)


Did a tiny bit of one handed deadlifting.

right hand 82kg x 1 x 1
left hand 82kg x 1 x F

seems quite a low one handed deadlift doesn't it? My excuse is that the barbell I use is thicker than an olympic bar. It's a Domyos bar from Decathlon.

Ah well.
Very pleased with squats. Maybe a I can finally beat my 200kg squat soon! Grin
