thanks guys!

Definitely finished the very weak, gruelling and trialling week on a high!

modest high - but high nevertheless.

To be able to squat 205 without ass pain is a big thing for me. THANKS TRAV!!!

Boar, that barrel is a thing of beauty, the love that has been put in its making radiates from it like an eternal hug that lingers on.

and it feels f**king heavy!

ben, that would be awesome mate Happy Do we need to start a petition?!?

Mark, certainly mate. Lunchtime sessions are a possibility too to get some sunlight, especially when the boss is away.

love it mate Happy

5 proper training weeks till the comp, i need to start keeping a tap on where i am and set goals for the coming week because so many of the events are touch and go for me.

120 Log for reps - 115 done now, but more importantly have settled for the strongest feeling techniques to clean the log, and to split jerk it. Currently putting in the graft to get the split jerk as good as possible, but need to start upping the weight soon too - i need to set a new log pb before the comp. 135kg barbell jerk of blocks also a goal before the comp. Narrow grips need more regular nailing.

loading race - fine, but would love to try loading an anvil before the comp

140kg farmers for max distance - some solid but not over the top graft should see this one go more or less to the plan

max dead - goal is 240 and 260 - that would need about 5kg increase for my current max lifted, 240, per week. If ass holds up its doable. hope to get 245 to stay with the programme next week.

340KG Yoke x 20m - big pb set a week back at 29.7 seconds, more can be shaved from it, but training it is so brutal it just kills everything else for few days Happy Want to have another pop at it this coming week and improve the time.

160 stone - BIG worry. Nowhere near nailing that badboy.

Nice work on the barrel loading mate.

You really are a pussy on those farmers - why not just nail 20m first time and save all that f**king about??

mate, it was not mindgames! I dont even know how to play that, or want to Grin It would have been a cool mindgame though had it been intentional LOL!

The original plan like i told you was to do farmers first then yoke, or farmers only for marsden.

I didnt end up doing the yoke because the guys who i was supposed to do yoke with disappeared, so nailed more farmers.

Its like saying you are playing mindgames with me if you do log before we deadlift Grin

...wait, is it mindgames?

f**k!

and hey look at that, worlds third strongest 105 posting on my log! Grin

Its this comp mate:
