Didnt update my log last night due to a power cut, i had it all wrote out then it went as i hit preview... Ahh well here it all is.

Speed Bench Day

Speed Bench
1 x 5 50kg
8 x 3 60kg

CG Bench
1 x 5 70kg
1 x 5 75kg
1 x 5 80kg
1 x 2 90kg
1 x 1 100kg PB

Reverse Grip Pulldowns

Great session, close grip bench is a lot stronger than i expected it to be - the double at 90kg flew up and i could've got a few more reps out there easilly, and the 100 came up easilly too.

Squat Day

Still working on technique here, i start to rush the heavy set and my technique suffers - will make an effort next week to leave a few seconds before each rep and do them properly and i think it will help a lot.

Squats
1 x 5 50kg
1 x 5 70kg
1 x 5 90kg
1 x 8 110kg
1 x 6 110kg
1 x 4 110kg

Pause Squats
3 x 5 80kg

Thanks guys, I have been working my bench technique a bit over the past few weeks and I have found that a slightly closer grip actually gives me a lot more power through the whole press than a wide grip, I think 110kg will be there soon enough.

Heavy Bench Day

After working out my ideal grip, i dont have a clue what my current max is, allthough i think its about 107.5-110. Today's session went very well, did a heavy single followed by some sets - single was a PB but in no way was it a max, it flew up really fast and there is defo a lot more there. 90kg was also a PB triple, and again theres a little bit more in that too.

Bench Press
1 x 5 60kg
1 x 5 70kg
1 x 3 82.5kg
1 x 1 102.5kg PB
3 x 3 90kg

3-board bench, but i have completely forgotton what i used.

CG Bench
3 x 10 60kg

Seated Dumbbell Shoulder Press
1 x 5 28kg - Stopped these as something in my shoulder started to feel not good and i didnt want to make it worse, allthough it feels fine now.

Rear Delt Cable Flyes
3 x 10 6kg

Thanks man, was a good day and nice first competition. I am happy with the 2 PB's, only 1 failed lift and only 1 red light in the rest.

Squat (equipped) 180 200 212.5 PB

Bench (unequipped) 90 102.5 110

Deadlift (unequipped) 180 200 217.5 PB

Total - 532.5

I am sure theres a bit more in the squat and quite a lot more in the deadlift, hopefully the 500lb will go soon enough. The 110 bench was close, but just couldnt get it through the sticking point, next time it will go for sure.

Video of the days lifting, the first 2 benches wernt recorded and the third was a failed lift, so only squats and deadlifts made it.



I will start updating my training log again in the near future, i had other distractions and never got round to it for a few months...
