Hi guys,

Well my name is Scott Bradwell and I have been competing in the gbpf for just over a year and I compete in the 74kg unequipped weight category. I am currently ranked 2nd behind Paul Cooper after last years British Classic. Also the British Bench Champion at 83kg because I was a lazy bas***d and couldn't be arsed to cut weight.

My training pbs are:

Squat 190kg
Bench 157.5kg
Dead 225kg

Competition pbs are:

Squat 185kg
Bench 145kg
Dead 220kg

I have just returned from the ipf world championships where I finished 12th in the 74kg weight class, my lifts were 185/145/200 had an amazing time out there surrounded by the worlds best, this has inspired me to train even
harder and get onto that medal platform in a few years.

So thought it was about time I started writing stuff down hopefully you guys will find it interesting and look forward to any comments you have about my training.

Cheers guys,

Scott.

Returned from Russia last Monday and after missing my coach back to the airport due to being to pissed up from night before had to make a mad dash across Russia to get to Moscow airport decided to fire straight back into training probably not my best idea but here goes:

Next comp is all England championships august 17th which is about 7 weeks away so decided to run a 6 week russian squat program to try and push my squat about the 200kg mark. Also gonna give sumo a go after seeing virtually every country at the worlds lift sumo apart from ours.

Felt tired today after being up since 5 for work should be illegal on a Sunday. Long warm up and mobilization has my right hip flexor has been really tight.

Squats

Bar*10
60*5
80*5
100*5
130*2
152.5*5 for 6 sets

Suprised how easy these felt as I had zero energy going into the session.

Extra wide stance box squat

100*5 for 3 sets

Really long pauses on bench and really focussing on speed and hip drive on way up.

Pullups 5 sets of 10.

Really happy with how squats are feeling at the moment maybe it was the 2 pizzas and chips I had last night.
