 Hill sprints are fun! Member 731, 3253 posts SQ 200, BP 127.5, DL 232.5560.0 kgs @ 80kgs UnEq | Conventional deadlift making a comeback? Or are you sticking with sumo and just using conventional as assistance? | ||

Haha I haven't got an answer to be honest mate I'm just gonna jeep running them both side by side and see which one comes on the most. They are both feeling really good at the moment for a change. | ||

Member 3850, 516 posts SQ 212.5, BP 157.5, DL 240610.0 kgs @ 76kgs UnEq | 8/9/13 Beltless squats Bar x lots 60x5 80x5 100x5 120x3 140x2 160x2 for 6 sets High bar singles. 140 160 170 pb 180 pb - only just. Think my legs and cns are pretty much burnt out today beltless squats felt easy but my body aches all over. Oh well if it was easy we would let someone else do it. | ||

Member 3850, 516 posts SQ 212.5, BP 157.5, DL 240610.0 kgs @ 76kgs UnEq | 9/9/13 Narrow grip bench Bar x lots 60x5 80x5 100x3 120x1 130x1 140x1 150xf 120x9 All sets except last paused. Very happy with todays benching even though I missed 150. To pause 140 narrow grip means my bench must be back on track. Sumo/Conv deadlift 60x5 100x3 140x2 170x1 200xf Switched to conventional at this point as sumo was feeling wank at this point. 180x1 200x1 220x1 230xf Happy with the way conventional felt 220 flew up only missed 230 because it was a faggot attempt. All in all weird session mixed bag proper confused one week sumo feels good next week feels s**t. | ||

Member 3850, 516 posts SQ 212.5, BP 157.5, DL 240610.0 kgs @ 76kgs UnEq | 11/9/13 Squats Bar x lots 60x5 80x5 100x5 130x3 150x2 170x5 for 5 sets Boom!! Well happy with these hard graft but never felt in doubt 5x5 @ 170 is most I've ever done. High bar paused squats. (Beltless) 100x3 5 sec pause 120x3 5 sec pause 130x3 5 sec pause 140x3 5 sec pause Probably some kind of pb felt good anyway. Well happy with todays session wish my other 2 lifts were going as well as my squat. | ||

Member 3850, 516 posts SQ 212.5, BP 157.5, DL 240610.0 kgs @ 76kgs UnEq | 12/9/13 Conv deadlifts 60x5 100x3 140x2 170x1 192.5x5 for 2 sets t+g 4" deficit deadlifts 140x1 170x1 190x1 205x1 SLDL 180x5 t+g Pullups wide. Bw 5 sets of 10 Great session which is crazy considering how much pain my legs were in from yesterday. This session has convinced me to stick with conventional for the British classic. However I'm still gonna train sumo also. | ||

 Let do this. Member 3512, 2473 posts SQ 200, BP 140, DL 252.5592.5 kgs @ 80kgs UnEq | Nice work Scott. Personally i have to say I tend to find my conventional DL and sumo a similar strength but the conventional is far more consistent. | ||

Member 3850, 516 posts SQ 212.5, BP 157.5, DL 240610.0 kgs @ 76kgs UnEq | 22/9/13 Squats Bar x lots 60x5 80x5 100x4 120x3 140x2 160x2 180x4 for 4 sets big pb. High bar paused squats (beltless) 120x2 140x2 150x2 Both reps 3 second pauses. First session back after being away in Scotland for a week so didn't know how it would go. So I'm well happy with 4x4 at 180 proper graft enjoyed being back under the bar. Trained with regular training partner Rich who hit 4 doubles at 160. Great work. Both ramping things up now for the British Classic. | ||
