How long have you been training for now? Ever thought of getting some 1 to 1 training in with Andy Bolton? thank you! wouldn't call it awesome. i got a good squat in but my bench and deadlift were a little disappointing. for the british, just to do myself justice. mid table obscurity again i guess, lol! would like a 250kg squat but also to do what i am capable of on bench and deadlift. were you at the welsh open btw? woken at 6am by the f**king seaguls so decided to get up and do a bit of squat assist work. Box squat: 140x3,3,3. completely raw, no belt. Glute Ham Raises with a blue band tied to the bottom of station and looped behing my neck x10,10,10. Weighted Sit Up 15kg plate x10,10,10. | ||

Member 3714, 637 posts SQ 265, BP 177.5, DL 265707.5 kgs @ 97kgs Eq | Deadlift assist. Rack pull, just bellow knee, worked up to 210x3,3,3. i'm doing something wrong here as its really hurting my upper spine at the top of the motion. not sure how to correct that? Barbell shrug@ 120x10,10,10. Pull Throughs with black band x10,10,10. | ||

Member 3714, 637 posts SQ 265, BP 177.5, DL 265707.5 kgs @ 97kgs Eq | Very quick squat session this afternoon between shifts in work. After warming up: 160x1, 175x3, 190x2. Feel bloody awful. Acid indigestion. Not eating right as a result. | ||

Member 5429, 38 posts | Ps suit sounds a pain in arse and a hinderence. Does it offer much on deads. Obviously I know a squat suit offer plenty but can't see a dead one offering much | ||

Member 3714, 637 posts SQ 265, BP 177.5, DL 265707.5 kgs @ 97kgs Eq | would be great to see you mate if you did make it  yeah i am liking deadlift suits less now than before. i used to get a good 35kg out of one but since improving my raw technique i just find it blows that all to s**t! lucky to get 5 or 10kg out of it right now! saying that, i probably just need to work on my suited technique. | ||
