technical retard Member 172, 36827 posts SQ 310, BP 205, DL 335850.0 kgs @ 108kgs UnEq | yeah, mostly due to the fact that I used to suffer from pussy-itas would bench every week, squat once every blue moon and maybe do some leg pressing if i felt in the mood not a great recipe for a big squat  | ||

technical retard Member 172, 36827 posts SQ 310, BP 205, DL 335850.0 kgs @ 108kgs UnEq | yesterday was squat day, wahoo!! Squat 50KG x 6 80KG x 6 100KG x 6 120KG x 5 130KG 3x3 - this felt OK, but confidence still not great on squat 140 or 135 3x3 next week? CG Bench 60KG x 10 100KG x 8 110KG x 6 120KG x 4 Tricep Pushdown 4 sets of 6 Rope Pushdown 4x6 not a bad little session, so treated myself to eight pints of stella, two packets of crisps and three double vodkas and cokes down the hell hole that is Ash Vegas!! Rough as a dog this morning after arriving home at 3am!!! | ||

 left the country satisfied Member 10, 19241 posts SQ 240, BP 150, DL 270660.0 kgs @ 107kgs UnEq | maybe better just to up it 5kg per week and keep the momentum going for a good while still? I am just thinking that it would probably be the best approach to get that confidence up. | ||

technical retard Member 172, 36827 posts SQ 310, BP 205, DL 335850.0 kgs @ 108kgs UnEq | Cheer Joni, was thinking 5KG best as well Willsan - aye, train in a power rack. Dont know why with confidence thing, prob cause no spotter and new (relatively) to squatting - only been squatting in a power rack (as opposed to smith machine) for about 12 months ish not to worry, confidence will come and have bold target of 200 squat before end of year - heres hoping Also fellas, does anyone know if I can compete in another divisional qualifier for BDFPA, Dont think Im going to do that comp on sat, but still would like to compete in not to distant future in BDFPA | ||

My only advice on the confidence thing is to keep squatting and maybe try doing heavy singles for awhile (4-8x1). Or failing that try doing some yoke training! squats tend to feel lighter after walking around with 1.5x your max squat on your back!  | ||
