465.0 kgs @ 66kgs UnEq		Sumo deadlifts from the other day. Need to work on that hip flexibility, but still felt pretty good.

560.0 kgs @ 80kgs UnEq		Why are you going to compete at 66kg? Get eating and add that 4kg to lift in the 74s. I made the mistake of spinning my wheels for ages trying to keep my weight at around 66kg.

Im only planning on competing at 66kg once because im going to have a go at the u20's British deadlift record. But you're right its not ideal for gaining strength, ill be going up to the 74s after that.

Todays squat session:

Was feeling a little bit beat up this morning as its my third day of training on the bounce so plenty of foam rolling and mobility stuff before I started. Squats didnt feel quite as springy as wednesday but still felt pretty strong.

Barx10 X2 (high bar)
60x5 X2 (high bar)

low bar squats:
80x3
100x5
115x3
130x5
135x1

Rack walkouts
160x3
Still trying to get used to the feeling of a heavier weight on my back so Im hoping these will benefit me in the long run.

Yeah just seen, good work that mate. 210 definitely there now. I would have stayed to watch but I dont think she would speak to me for a week if I was any longer.

Haha if my misses promised not too speak to me for a week I'd do 3 hour sessions everyday to keep her quiet. I hope she doesn't secretly go on sugden and see this haha.

Tonights bench + deadlift session:
Didnt get to the gym until late again tonight so didnt manage to fit in any assistance work. This session was basically a repeat of last weeks awful session.

Bench

Bar x 10 X2
40x10
50x5

(Paused)
62.5 x3
72.5x3
80x3
90x1 (equal pb)

85x1
85x1

Deadlift:
60x10 X2
100x5
140x3
150x1
175x3
140x5

Not a bad session at all tonight considering how late it was again, I think my back is getting there again now. Much better than last week.
Still struggling to keep tight when paused benching though.

465.0 kgs @ 66kgs UnEq		Tonights squat session:

Barx10 X2
60x5 X2
80x3

Low bar squats
100x3 (beltless)
112.5x3
125x5
140x1 (This one pulled me in a bit but I knew I was just being a pussy so I had a bit of rest and had another go)
140x3 (much better, probably had more, but left it there as I was starting to get pulled in again and lower back was pretty sore from deads last night)

100x5 beltless

Pretty good session just need to work on keeping more upright and not getting pulled forwards when it starts to get heavy.
