Hi Guys,

I've finally logged on to the Sugden site. Look forward to some good banter. See some of you at the training day in Rhino's, I hope.

Thanks guys. I'm going to Catts occasionally, but now doing most of my bench training with John Walker at Muscle & Figure in Widnes. We train bench Mondays and Thursdays at 19.30. Tend to do dynamic work Mondays and heavy stuff Thursdays. If anyone ever fancies a change of scene they're more than welcome. Moz is coming over tomorrow. I could do with more rests between sets so the more the merrier! Come over to Frodsham mid-afternoon and I even do food and dog introductions.

I've decided to do the BDFPA single lift qualifier in Bradford on 26th May to get a bit of shirt lifting experience. I can break a British record there, but not a world record. So look out for the odd situation on 27th May where the British record is more than the world record!

Hope that doesn't sound big headed?! Did an easy 165 in a loose training shirt last Thursday and the wr is 161 for my age/weight - hence the optimism.

Saw that your shirt bench is going great on PLUK - you must be absolutely delighted!

Absolutely delighted, Rick. A few weeks ago I was in Catts watching them do 140ish and seriously wondering if I would ever do that again. The injury just seemed to last forever. But my shoulder did really ache Friday, so Ive still got to be careful. I would love to break 400 lbs (182.5) in competition - maybe 26th May is too soon, but will hopefully be in that sort of shape by 15th July.

Missed my 182.5 (just) when I was not really up for it tbh but set M3 British record at 172.5. Full report posted over on PLUK. Target now 190.5, upping my bench training to three times a week until mid-July.

What are you benching, Marc, and are you doing equipped, unequipped or both? How much do I need to improve?
