Good end to the week.

Squats were at an awkward height - trained with my mate at the other gym, so different set-up...felt strong enough though. Didn't want to push the knee too much, sports massage last night and all.

Benching was excellent. All of these were to full commands, the 145 was easy - I should have gone for 147.5/150 - didnt want to over-do it here either, my left pec is getting a little sore. Extra work required over the weekend!

Was meant to be on a course for a few days, but did the 3hr drive yesterday...went into the office this morning only to find out the course was cancelled! wahey!

Knee is starting to be s**tty again - it is a different area now - more like the quad tendon into the top of the knee cap. Either way it is irritating as. Anyway, to manage that I added loose wraps - so that has thrown my top set out slightly, but the 185s were pain free and EASY. very happy.

Benching went well also, the top set @132 was very nice, smooth reps etc

All she wrote - not much on next week, uni then comp on Sunday - nearly 50 lifters, so its going to be a busy one! cant wait!!

Based on Mikes's software - my projected maxes are around 210/147/255 - that would leave me very happy indeed, although I think they are a little ambitious!

Thanks Iain.

You are right last week was hard going - everything @9's with some higher reps..my predicted numbers are in the right place though, just got to do it on the platform now!

Looking forward to re-couping this week! I will be asking the hotel in London for lots of ice to get some contrast work going Grin

Best of luck to you too.

openers/ second attempts

Squat:
150, 170
185kg @8.5/9
195kg @9/9.5

Bench:
115kg
125kg @8/8.5
135kg @9/9.5

Deadlift:
210kg
230kg @8.5

And that was that. Still feeling the effects from last week lol...all of these weights leave me with a dilemma - just need to think about the openers really - the ones here were comfortable so a good starter for 10..

Was beat by the deadlift, so stopped at the comfortable 230..

LOL

I think you manage quite well by yourself Happy

It is indeed - I think it was 572.5 actually - Really pleased with yesterday, things didn't feel great in the warm-ups or early lifts, but managed to work a total!
