I agree with Weigie... And your only 67kg. Quite impressive.

Martin - GET IN A COMP!! The one on Sunday would have been perfect for you. It would have been very close between you and the guy in 66kg class, and certainly down to the last deadlift. Competition spurs you on. GET IT DONE!!

Cheers guys. When will the results be going up Andy? I'll probably enter the October competition depending on how training goes, hopefully in the 66kg class.

Training for yesterday:

Squats
Bar x 5
70kg x 5
100kg x 4
122.5kg x 2 - PB
110kg x 3
100kg x 4

Fininshed off with decline sit-ups - 3 sets of 10 (2 with +5kg on my chest)

I haven't been training much recently so I'm pretty chuffed I got the PB. Hopefully I'll start to train a bit more regularly when I get settled in to my new job etc.

Haha, cheers.

Squat

100kg x 3
110kg x 1
122.5kg x 2
110kg x 4
100kg x 5

A nice simple training day today. I felt aweful but I'm glad I managed to get a double at 122.5kg again. I think I could of possibly got a third rep (if I had Steel and the gang shouting at me!), but I'm not too fussed as they were better reps than last week. My diet and attitude towards the gym have been god aweful the last couple of weeks but starting soon I'm going to get it all sorted out. I have until October to get below 66kg and maximise my 1RMs before the juniors comp in Glasgow.

Lifts seems to be going well even though youve been a bit flakey with your training haha. You should definately do the juniors later on this year.

Deadlift
70kg x 5
110kg x 5
130kg x 5
130kg x 2 - then I was dead for some reason :S
110kg x 5

Shrugs
70kg x 12
70kg x 12
70kg x 12

Close-grip Bench...again
60kg x 5
70kg x 5
80kg x 4
85kg x 2 - almost got a third
80kg x 6?- slingshot on

Chin-ups
BW x 8 (3 sets of) - slow and controlled on the way down


It was excellent session yesterday with Neil but I'm a little disappointed and surprised at how aweful my deadlift was. The 130kg felt pretty tough for some reason. At least I kept my form good for the most part.

Haha I know, it is very strange. I'll see how my deadlifting goes this week, hopefully it's like you say and it'll be better.

Cheers dude. Not quite as strong as you though...yet. Haha.

Bench - trying a new, wider grip
Bar x 10
40kg x 5
70kg x 5
85kg x 3
80kg x 4
75kg x 5
60kg x 5 - Paused - Very easy 5


Strict Press - new wider grip
Bar x 5
40kg x 5
50kg x 4
45kg x 5
40kg x 8

Pull-ups - new wider grip
BW x 5
+10kg x 5
+10kg x 5
+10kg x 5

Overall an excellent session for me, hopefully I'll start to improve on bench soon as it has been a while since I seen any real gain. I've started to move my grip out wider as I had a very close grip previously. The strict press was fine, not really bothered about my numbers atm. The pull-ups were pretty easy, even with the added weight so next time I'll maybe do them with 12.5kg?

Squats tomorrow, I can't wait!
