Member 887, 337 posts SQ 0, BP 207.25, DL 0207.3 kgs @ 132.5kgs Eq | Threw my planned routine out and just did what felt best on the day. PB's in 2 lifts - not bad. The squat was a bit slow but didnt feel overly difficult. Rack pulls went much easier than the last time i tried them, because the bar actually had knurling that i could grip! Squats 1 x 5 20kg 1 x 5 60kg 1 x 5 80kg 1 x 3 100kg 1 x 3 120kg 1 x 1 140kg 1 x 1 160kg 1 x 1 170kg 1 x 1 180kg 5kg PB Rack Pulls (from just above the knee cap) 1 x 5 120kg (fast) 1 x 3 160kg 1 x 1 200kg 1 x 1 240kg 1 x 1 280kg PB 1 x f 300kg moved about 2-3 inches, but just ran out of steam on this one. will go in a few weeks when i do them again! finished off with some core work. | ||

Didnt do much assistance work today, i didnt have much time in the gym tbh - figured doing the main s**t was more important. Gonna hit it up on thursday and do some speed stuff and do loads of hammy / back work. The s**tty bars at strathy are f**king terrible for grip, and i dont like to use straps if i can avoid it (i also forgot them last time i did rack pulls up there). Theres an old, slightly bent ivanko power bar where i train now thats used for this kinda thing, and i managed to add 50kg over what i used last time so knurling makes a huge difference. | ||

Ive pulled near enough as much with both bars in strathy and don't see any difference for 1RM. i agree the strathy texas bar is better for any sort of rep stuff. It also hundreds of time better for squats due to actually having knurling in the centre of the bar. | ||

Not bad man, i did some shirt work trying to get a lighter touch before that attempt so my tricpes where allready a bit knackered, tried a 100kg 3sec pause afterwards and it flew up so i decided to go for the PB out of the blue and it paid off. was a bit slow and uneven but i am sure fresh it will fly up now | ||
