Nice sessions mate, looking at your insta posts, all is coming along nicely. How long now until the comp?

I love bringing my grip out on deads, really puts focus on the upper back. Although a full on snatch grip is a bit wide for me so I go somewhere in between a snatch grip and regular grip. How do you find them?

Cheers mate
Ye I really like them. Love how it feels on upper back. Only being a hobbit my snatch grip isn't all the way tho.

Week 7 day 2

Training was not good last week. Still feeling back after pulling on week 6 i couldn't deadlift so did a lot of mobility work.
Ended up only training twice this week.
Went to Kaos on friday with my mate but i had to change what i planned to do and ended up benching just to take pressure off lower back but still get some volume in.
Not benched in a while so was intrigued to see how it went.

Bench all paused
set 1. 110kgx5
set 2. 120kgx5
set 3. 130kgx5
set 4. 140kgx3
set 5. 150kgx2
set 6. 152.5kgx1 narrowly missed the double

Close grip
set 1. 110kgx2
set 2. 120kgx2
set 3. 130kgx2
set 4. 142.5kgx1 (pb)

Slingshot all paused
set 1. 150kgx3
set 2. 160kgx2

Did a few sandbag pick ups as back felt ok(ish) just to practice for comp.

Standing football bar strict press
5x5 67kg

Nice session benching for a changeand nice to see its not far off best so if i decide to do a powerlifting comp again it won't take much to get bench back to best.
Thanks to Luke for welcoming us in and his advice on sandbags.

Hopefully get back on track this week. Back still not 100% but getting there. Only 5 week of training left so can't afford to lose another training week.

Week 8 day 1
Events

After my axle broke last week I managed to get one today so it's a real axle and not some scaffold which is good!
Today was ment to be 3x3
Cleans felt good but seemed to have no pressing power which normally if I can clean it I will press it!
Set 1. 100x3
Set 2. 105x2 just missed lockout on third which really pissed me off tbh as was hoping for 110x3 today
So then decided to do comp weight of 90kg for 2x3 and both sets flew. Really hoping for 10+ reps on the day!

Then onto farmers which I think will be my worst event on day as I have a s**t grip and hobbit hands!
3x30m runs drop and turn 15m
Set 1. 92.5kg per hand
Set 2. 95kg per hand
Set 3. 100kg per hand (comp weight)

All felt really comfy so happy with farmers just Ashame about my pressing tonight!
Video shows last set of axle and last set of farmers!
