Wes said:Cheers pal, I have had some little gains with it as of late. I think mainly due to mixing it up a bit. The pressing off pins is something new to me, which I'm enjoying.


big differance 5kg extra is good man

Thanks... and they were touch and go not resetted. I have been meaning to start doing the whole resetting thing after each rep to minimise the risk of setting my back off again. Must make an effort !!

Monday 11 Jan

Speed-Bench

70 x 3 x 8
Didn't get into these today as people kept on coming over and chatting

Dips

BW x 12
+10kg x 8
+15kg x 8
+20kg x 6
+20kg x 6
+20kg x 6

Enjoyed these, found a dipping station that doesn't aggrevate my shoulder as its quite narrow at one end. Will stick at em for a while and see what happens !

C.G Bench
60 x 12
80 x 5 for 5 sets

Paused at the bottom and slammed up hard

Again finished off with various Tri Ext stuff for 5 setsm, resting tomorrow with big squats on Wednesday. All comments and criticism welcome !!

ye i used to do touch and go and the last few months started to reset it the reason was my weak point was the top of the lift not shifting it off thye ground and after a while it changed and my power from the floor stayed the same and the top part of the lift kept progressing so thats why i changed back to resetting and my best touch and go was 211kg for 5 reps sp 215 is good probs a 240 in ye there

Yeah ya right, it has to be a good thing resetting. I've always felt more comfortable getting the 2nd, 3rd and 4th reps off the ground rather than the 1st. So to tax myself it probs would be better to reset after each rep...

I'm back in love with the deads again since rejigging the back routine around, I've been a bit hesitant with them for the past few months but I've got my confidence back with em now so I'm starting to concentrate on getting the lb's up, this might help... nice one ta !!

ye its harder resetting but ye first lifts always get easyer i found and i found also that by resetting it doesent upset the back as touch and go did more stress and the next day felt like some1 had rode over my lower back with touch and go but resetting recovery seems to be better imo

Wednesday 13 Jan

Squat:
60 x 10
100 x 5
100 x 5
140 x 3
160 x 3
165 x 3 Felt Good
167.5 x 3 Suddenly not happy with stance width ??
170 x 2 I was aiming for 3 but it all felt wrong...
170 x 2 The weights beat me today, my head wasn't in it for some reason ?

Although 170 x 2 is a best for me on 2 reps, I was certain after last week I would get 3 sets of 3 up on 170, I was just not feeling it though, little niggles getting in my head and putting me off !! Ahh well, next time !

Finished off with 20 mins ab work:

Hanging leg raises (3 sets of 10)
Weighted sit ups (3 sets of 15 with 12.kg db)
Side bends (3 sets of 12 per side with 50kg db)
