Who said it's hardcore? Member 3896, 847 posts SQ 265, BP 150, DL 320 735.0 kgs @ 128kgs UnEq	Is it realistic to think you can go from a 140kg x 3 150kg 1RM to around 170kg/180kg 1RM in around 14 months? I've got it in my head that it can be done based on how I felt with the weights I hit. didn't grind anything. Nothing was particularly hard at the end of the training cycle. To explain, had surgery so everything I did remained static/s**t for around 18 months as I underwent rehab. Nice 12 week training period and I'm past where I was. Juts think I can really push on now if I give it some welly.

Lost his pen, then found his pen. #phew Member 4899, 2956 posts	I suppose it's an incredibly open question...but yeah, it's doable.

Member 2775, 6927 posts	Completely dependant on you as in individual and what you do in the next 14 months so impossible to say if it's going to happen for you. What I will say however is that if you don't think you will do it then you definately have less chance of making it happen. Be positive and don't limit yourself wondering if it's 'realistic'.

Stick with reps mainly like I have been doing and then when ready, go for it. I'm doing a lot of front squatting too and not far off hitting 220kg on that and out of all of the training I do, when my front squatting is on point my push press and deadlift goes up. When I start using 2 ply sleeves, I imagine I'll be able to eek out a bit more when it comes to the time to try it.

Member 5141, 4199 posts SQ 300, BP 180, DL 350 830.0 kgs @ 130kgs UnEq	Its certainly doable, but given your ability to repeatedly hurt yourself id focus more on short term goals and injury avoidance. If you spend a year making small gains every couple of months and not hurting yourself you likely wont be too far away from this next year.

Lovely ass Congrats. Member 5958, 2315 posts SQ 280, BP 170, DL 300 750.0 kgs @ 138kgs UnEq	If you can dream it you can achieve it!

more like 'FAT TROLL' Member 984, 6331 posts SQ 420, BP 260, DL 335 1015.0 kgs @ 165kgs UnEq	Train the strict press heavy and push press with light like 60-70% x 8 x 3.
