Mr. Abb. Member 239, 581 posts SQ 172.5, BP 100, DL 212.5485.0 kgs @ 74.1kgs UnEq | Tuesday Squats 20kg x20 60kg x10 80kg x8 100kg x6 120kg x4 135kg x3,3,3,3,3,3 First two sets felt heavy and did them without the belt. Third set I belted up and found that on the two first sets I had used too wide stance, same width that I use with my flat shoes. Third set and onwards felt great and managed to get the stretch and "bouce" out of the bottom. This makes a huge difference. Six triples with double BW, happy with that. Sumo DL 60kg x10 80kg x8 100kg x6 120kg x6 140kg x4 Didn't feel all that good. Couldn't get my hips to the bar or squeeze my chest up properly. SLDL 120kg x5,5,5 Felt ok but didn't have time to do any more. Had to skip back extensions as well. This was a pretty quick workout for me done in 40min. And to top it all I just received an entry form to WDFPA Europeans  . Not sure if it's an actual invitation but I'll send it in and see what happens. Might as well keep BW at 67.5kg until I find out what happens. | ||

Mr. Abb. Member 239, 581 posts SQ 172.5, BP 100, DL 212.5485.0 kgs @ 74.1kgs UnEq | Well, if I get a place I'll be going for sure. And if I go I'll be lifting on the Saturday but will probablty stay and watch Sunday as well as join in the merry making on Sunday evening. Matt, I was there at the British. if you watched the girls and the light weights flights on the Saturday, you might have spotted a half dead skinny dude sleeping in the warm up area. Hell, it would be so great to get an invite. Cause I'm dying to make up for my cockup at the British. | ||

Member 194, 3976 posts | Ahh that was you! yes I did see you then, I was there on the sat watching Jordana do her thing. She will be lifting on the Sat so I'll be with her then but will probably be there on the sunday, even more so if there is drinking to be done! | ||

Mr. Abb. Member 239, 581 posts SQ 172.5, BP 100, DL 212.5485.0 kgs @ 74.1kgs UnEq | Hehe, yepp!  Jordana is something else! Saw her DL's and they are just outstanding and she seems to have a lot more coming. Will be good to see her lift again. And as far as I understand, the application form is indeed an invite so it looks very likely that I'll be going. Only problem is that I need to start to watch my weight again. Luckily it didn't shoot up again after the British, actually the oposite for some reason even though I pigged out and took it easy I just leaned out like crazy. Have no idea how that happend but happy about it now cause as long as I don't gain a couple of Kg's I won't have to worry so much about making weight. | ||

Mr. Abb. Member 239, 581 posts SQ 172.5, BP 100, DL 212.5485.0 kgs @ 74.1kgs UnEq | Wednesday Ab wheel From knees x10 Partial from feet 3x3 From Knees x10 Damn they are hard From floor BoR 80kg x5,5,5,5,5 62.5kg x20 Solid DB Bench 30kg x8,7 28kg x7,6,8 I've got to leave the ego and remember I'm weak like a kitten when it comes to benching. BEtter start off with 26kg for 5x10 and then go up in weight. WGPU's, WPGPU's, Chins BW x12,8,5 Nothing left in the tank when I got to the chins. Normally I would get 8-10 here but no way today. If next week is the same like this one I'm going to add a rest day on Wednesdays. Accomplished f**k all today. Left the Face Pulls and Tri Pushdowns as I was finished anyway. | ||

Mr. Abb. Member 239, 581 posts SQ 172.5, BP 100, DL 212.5485.0 kgs @ 74.1kgs UnEq | Friday Ab-wheel Knees x10,1 Arghhh!!! f**king hate these. Could barely do the first one as my abs suddenly got a fit of DOMS from Wednesdays workout. Tried a second set but it was too painful that I couldn't even keep the abs tight. Gave up. Military Press 20kg x10 40kg x5 50kg x3 60kg x1,1,1,1,1 45kg x5,5,5,5,5 Felt really good apart from my f**king abs that were in agony. Speed Box Squats Folded deck + 1 thin block 20kg + Light x10 60kg + Light x2,2,2,2,2,2,2,2 Felt nice. Double choked the band at the bottom and just looped it over the bar inside sleeves. Worked better than choke at bottom and choked out at the end of the sleeves. Speed BLDL 100kg x2,2,2,2 High Pulls 100kg x2,2,2,2 These were ok apart from that the bashed my legs when the bar came down again. Sumo DL 100kg x4 120kg x4 140kg x4,4,4 Didn't get it right until the last rep on the last set when I turned my feet right out. f**king ab-wheel! | ||

Mr. Abb. Member 239, 581 posts SQ 172.5, BP 100, DL 212.5485.0 kgs @ 74.1kgs UnEq | Sunday BLDL and Sumo DL Did same work on both lifts after each other 60kg x8 100kg x6 120kg x6 140kg x4 160kg x2 BLDL 160kg (84% 1RM) x3,3,3 Felt heavy, but it's a start. Lower back felt great though. SLDL 120kg x5,5,5,5,5 Ab-wheel Knees x10,10 Both BLDL and Sumo felt like s**t today. I think I need to play around a bit more with the sumo DL. Next Sunday I'll just focus on the Sumo and work up to a single and try and go a bit harder in it. It feels like I'm just faffing around too much with it instead of just ripping with it and it's holding me back. I also think I've done enough to break myself in to it so that if I go a bit harder in it I won't get terribly sore. Ab-wheel felt a bit better today. Think I learned a new lesson there. To be patient at the bottom as it equals to less deceleration and acceleration which puts less strain on th emid section. To pull/push the arms back and not so much down when turning around which took the strain away from mid section and I could actually feel that I was using my lats there. Got some vids as well that I'll try and post later tonight. | ||

Mr. Abb. Member 239, 581 posts SQ 172.5, BP 100, DL 212.5485.0 kgs @ 74.1kgs UnEq | Post Edited: 12.05.2008 @ 09:24 AM by Jaako Blah, they are only an inch or so above belly button so 4-5inches too low for a proper High Pull.Didn't know what to call them as 100kg felt a bit too light for speed DL's so just started trying to make them a bit more explosive and they actually felt quite good. Seemed to get more out of my legs than I normally do with bands. Maybe a keeper, they are certainly more fun than plain speed DL's. | ||

Mr. Abb. Member 239, 581 posts SQ 172.5, BP 100, DL 212.5485.0 kgs @ 74.1kgs UnEq | Monday 12 May Bench 20kg x20 40kg x10 60kg x5 70kg x3 80kg x5,5,5,5,5 60kg x20 Bench felt solid today and the 5x5's were hard but comfortable. Used wrist wraps today for the first time and not sure if they helped much but they still felt good. Will order a a pair of inzer ones that I can use in comp. Hopefully they will help me to finally get a 100kg bench in comp. Just managed to lock out the 20th rep with 60kg. 85kg for 5x4 next week. 2H KB Press 20kg x5,5,5,4,5 Stinking hard and really focused on squeezing them as high and together and now I'm real tight just between the spines of the scapulas and spine, rhomboids I guess. DB Bench 26kg x10,8,8 Felt much better than last. No discomfort in shoulders and just tri's failing From floor BoR 82.5kg x5,5 80kg x5,5,5 Second set I just failed to touch chest with the last two reps as well as in the last set. Might just stick with 80kg until I own it and add a rep or two there. WGPU/WPGPU/Chins BW x12,8,8 Pumped out s/s High Pulley Face Pulls 21.25kgkg x20,20 s/s Tri Pushdowns 31.25kgkg x12,12 Swissball Crunches BW x40 Feeling out the abs before attempting the ab-wheel, and they were sore and tired so leaving it for today. Pretty shattered but happy about the workout. | ||
