Member 2272, 339 posts SQ 102.5, BP 50, DL 140292.5 kgs @ 65kgs UnEq | Have you tried linear progression? For your squat in particular, I would squat twice a week (it's a lift that benefits from frequency for me), go up 2.5 kg each time doing says 3 sets of 5. I went from 60 to 80 for 3x5 in 5 weeks like that. | ||

Member 3516, 53 posts SQ 82.5, BP 117.5, DL 152.5352.5 kgs @ 72kgs UnEq | Bench session went well considering i didnt really have a plan. Bench 20 - 2x10 60 - 2x3 100 - 1x2 112.5 - 1x1 117.5 - 1x1 PB 110 - 1x1 (was going for 2 reps but i failed the second) 105 - 1x3 Close Grip Bench 90 - 1x5 (Felt good and quite easy) 100 - 1x3 (last 2 reps were hard, didnt think i waqs going to get more sets) 90 - 1x5 (Felt good and easier than the first set) 95 - 1x2 Dips BW - 2x10 +20 - 3x10 BW - 1x10 Some bodybuilding chest stuff, dumbell press and Pec Dec ect. Overll i thought that this was a good session, got a new 1 rep pb which is good, next session i will work on 112.5 for 5 singles (5x1) or maybe a few doubles (3x2). | ||

Member 3516, 53 posts SQ 82.5, BP 117.5, DL 152.5352.5 kgs @ 72kgs UnEq | Bench 20 - 2x10 60 - 2x5 100 - 1x1 107.5 - 1x1 (harder than expected) 110 - 1x1 100 - 1x1 (paused) Slingshot bench 110 - 1x1 120 - fail (Not at all used to using the slingshot) Incline bench 60 - 1x5 80 - 1x5 90 - 1x1 95 - 1x1 100 - fail I am choosing to blame the s**ttness off the session on the heavy drinking at the weekend and also on the fact that i peaked in bench last week. | ||

Member 3516, 53 posts SQ 82.5, BP 117.5, DL 152.5352.5 kgs @ 72kgs UnEq | Deadlift 70 - 2x3 120 - 2x1 140 - 3x2 (felt a bit easier than last time) 120 - 1x5 Need to work on keepiong my back abit straighter 15" Deadlift 120 - 2x5 The 15" was hard, i know i did the same reps on 120 from the floor but i dont do much 15" and i was working on keeping my back as straight as i could on this, hence the lower weight. Leg Press 90 - 3x10 Leg extensions 60 - 3x15 Apparently it is obvious that i need to work on my quads because my hamstrings look stronger when i deadlift, which is why i finished the session with the leg exercises. | ||

On a serious come-down on the bench after peaking at 117.5, before i got that i was consistantly going up on reps, working on 110. Now i cant even do what i could do 2-3 weeks ago on 110. Couldnt even get 2 out on 110 today, whereas a couple of weeks ago i got one set of 3 and then sets of 2 after it. s**t! | ||
