I on the other hand am f**ked haha, those wide stance box squats killed my hams and glutes, walking down to the lab today isn't much fun... not that it is usually, but today is 10x worse haha! | ||

My muscles feel fine but my lower back feels tender. My shatteredness/knackeredness is central. I just feel I could slump down and sleep for a week, bearing in mind I've not slept so well recently as I have these last few nights. | ||

Not in Loz's top 10 uk strongmen Member 144, 4421 posts SQ 320, BP 165, DL 350835.0 kgs @ 123kgs Eq | I used a wider stance than normal on those box squats to hit hips, hams and glutes more so it translates for deadlift so that's where the soreness in them is from. Quads are just sore from not doing direct quad work in a long while and low back is a combination. The sleep was just a case of getting back from the gym then having to cook and was too awake. I would of had 7hrs if I didn't have to be up for 6am to get the bus at 7. | ||

Do you have to get up that early every day for uni? What time does your class start? I had to do something similar back in the day to get to college on time it was a nightmare after doing backshifts. | ||

The past few months has been hit and miss though. | ||

I supposedly defy all concept by being able to rep 90kg fair easily and then struggle on 100kg. After my deload week and his British competition I'm going to concentrate on more pec power than just triceps as we've been doing. Decline bench and dumbbells. I will beat you to 120kg. Cheers. I'm looking forward to a 'light' week. I've enjoyed training these last three months but my body just needs a week's rest. | ||

When you train as hard as you do, I think you're entitled to a week of rest. I'll be watching this blog when you come back to see how your chest strength is improving. I can imagine it improving quickly after such hard tricep work. | ||

All you need to do is swap the max exercises. And for the dynamic work, do some ssb squats with green bands for 8 doubles. You need your body to adapt to the training, not stop what we've been doing. | ||

I have no intention of stopping what we're doing. I'm loving every minute of it. I just wanted to sneak a light week in. | ||
