and thats just his waistline Member 391, 2799 posts SQ 217.5, BP 152.5, DL 272.5 642.5 kgs @ 89.1kgs UnEq	Tonights training Squats 10 x bar 5 x 60 kg 3 x 100 kg 2 x 120 kg 6 x 3 x 135 kg Rope crunches, hyperextensions Second squat session of the week as per the Russian Masters Squat routine. Very tough from the 3rd set onwards but it's my 4th straight day of training and I only competed on Saturday so all's good. Overall a pretty solid week of training, hopefully more to come

Member 541, 5328 posts SQ 192.5, BP 120, DL 222.5 535.0 kgs @ 92.8kgs UnEq	Get plenty of rest with that Russian routine, in three weeks you'll be doing twice the volume you did tonight.

Good job and remember to eat a lot! High intensity training will consume most of your energy for muscle leaving almost nothing for your inmune system, so you need to make sure you have plkenty of energy in your body. Eat fruits, cereals and rest well (8+ hours if possible)

The proof will be in the pudding on 31st October Malc, that should be the end of the 8 weeks and hopefully a squat PB.

The 5 x 120 rack press was more like a 4 + 1, the 130 hardly moved after that. Looking back through the journal, this time last year I was rack pressing 140 and going for 150 but that was about 10 kg in BW ago.
