This makes sense, you should compete where you are comfortable. Training, competing and life in general go better when you can eat decent quantities and not worry about having to cut down every few months.


Exactly that mate its no good for my body going up and down all the time so I'm gonna take this next year to slowly get my bodyweight up but not worry about it at all and let it progress naturally.

Got to the gym and it was f**king packed full of wa**ers doing half reps on the Benches so decided to practice some sumos while I waited not done them in ages.

Sumo deadlifts Tech work

60x5
80x3
100x2
140x1
160x1

All beltless positioning felt very good just messed about really gonna work upto a weight I can manage with good form then do some volume off of that.

Paused Bench

Bar x lots
60x5
80x5
100x3
110x1
120x1
130x1
140x1
150xfail

140 was very easy and so should 150 have been but as I was lowering the bar I slid backwards on the bench completely loosing my arch. Didn't wanna take it again and piss myself off.

100x18 new pb took all my anger out on 100kg.

Pullups and 20kg weighted dips

3 sets of 10 reps.
