Member 5059, 81 posts SQ 200, BP 155, DL 260 615.0 kgs @ 109kgs UnEq	Post Edited: 02.02.2016 @ 10:24 AM by willlyd So, it seems I'm crap at training for any period longer than 3 months before having a few months off. Had my first planned weights session since August 2015 yesterday. I've decided that I'm going to follow the Russian Squat Routine for 6 weeks to I can hit the ground running in a structured way. My old PB's: Deadlift - 270kg Olympic style squat, beltless - 210kg Strict OHP - 105kg Push Press - 130kg Bench Press - 155kg Log Press - 130kg I'd like to think that I'll be back on these figures by the end of the 6 weeks. I'm generally quite quick to pick up the movements. I would like to compete in a couple of strongman events this year and possibly a couple of natural powerlifting competitions. My shoulder strength is always the thing to go to s**t when I have some time off, so that will be a grind. I need to be very careful not to push too hard on them as I have had tendonitis issues in the past.

Squat - No belt, no wraps, olympic shoes: Bar x 10 x 2 70kg x 10 x 2 120kg x 5 x 2 165kg x 2 165kg x 2 165kg x 2 165kg x 2 165kg x 2 165kg x 2 Felt quite easy, so relatively happy. My "weights fitness" isn't there, so legs were a little shaky at the end of it. OHP, Strict: Bar x 10 x 2 50kg x 5 x 2 75 x 3 75 x 3 ( 1 Push Press) 75 x 3 ( 3 Push Press) 75 x 3 ( 3 Push Press) 75 x 3 ( 3 Push Press) 75 x 3 ( 3 Push Press) Not good enough, but to be expected. Deadlift, no belt, no shoes: 70kg x 10 explosive 120kg x 5 explosive 160kg x 3 explosive Straps on: 195kg x 3 195kg x 3 195kg x 3 195kg x 3 195kg x 3 195kg x 3 Easy enough, legs were a bit shaky but that didn't affect it too much. Session was 50 minutes all in all. Quite sore today.
