Thanks all and yes Jon, it's heartbreaking to see the new kitchen getting f**ked. And having all carpets etc ripped up and the place resembling a building site (only noisier and messier) with only the bedroom to sit in is s**tty.

I reckon I have made a bit of a breakthrough in the deadlift. I am going to pretend it's my favourite lift for the next six months or so and see what happens. After I pulled the last deadlift Ian Hawkins just said, "You to**er!" rather than "Well done!" His point being that I should've gone for a bigger weight (I think. Or maybe he just doesn't like me - lol). Before I took the lift I promised him and Martin that if it was easy I'd aim to open with it (240) at the Worlds, which are to be held in Milton Keynes on 11-13th November. So six months of loving the deadlift will take me there nicely. I want to be strong enough to be thinking of going 240-260-??? in the deadlift by then and I reckon it's a real possibility.



It looked easy enough mate, that should be on the cards. Its about time we had some solid deadlifts come out of Genesis (with the exception of your recently aquired Gallery hobo).

Still not sure on the squat, seemed as deep as others that were passed to me, but as well you know these things happen on the day.
Not sur ewhich one it was but one of those refs had a bee in his bonet on the day every bloody lift 2-1 I think there were about 6 3 whites all day long.

Still, I got free ham batches and coffee all day long so its all good

Thanks all and Matt, I can't argue with any of what you've written. And if you HADN'T got free food and coffee then obviously things would've been different and we'd have had to kick up a bit of a fuss about everything!

I did the GBPF South Midlands comp yesterday. I very nearly didn't go cos my training has been a bit sporadic of late. I have only missed a couple of sessions, but I haven't done enough heavy squatting.

I actually did pretty well considering I nearly didn't bother going. I obviously opened fairly conservatively and went 8/9 like this:

250-270-280 - 190x-190-205 - 220-235-245 = 730
2.5kg squat pb, 5kg deadlift pb and 2.5kg total pb.

Now as I said, I hadn't really trained properly for this and my squat was much weaker than when I got 277, but a pb's a pb, so I can't complain.

Squats:




The first bench was terrible. I wore my baggy shirt and couldn't get the bar down. Had to pull the neck up to get it on the second attempt. The third we just straightened the shirt and it flew up. I was going to go 190 - 205 - 215 which was going to be conservative! I'm going to wear the smaller shirt if I do the British Bench which will mean I open on about 225+.

Deadlift:




And a few other vids you might like:

Thanks for dropping in Jon! Yeah the old deadlift problem reared its ugly head again (allowing the bar to get slightly in front of me). But not as bad as usual and the other two deadifts wer much better, so I am learning!

Actually the 245 got a bit stuck on my chubby thighs and I have a black blood blistery bruise type thing where I pinched my leg whilst pulling the bar over my suit leg - ouch! Unhappy

P.S. Scary and genuinely true fact: My wireless keyboard missed out four letters in that first paragraph. They were d a t e in that order. So perhaps we should get married after all?!
