This is good, but then I always feel - "But will it still feel that easy in a week and a half? Shouldn't I do some heavier work?" To which the answer is of course "No!" but I have to keep reminding myself that. Deadlift 70x3, 120x3, 150x3x2, 175x3x2, 190x2x5 Bleurgh. Not bad but feel these ought to be faster at this stage. One more DL session next Monday to get right back in the groove and concentrate on speed. Hammer Curl 20sx17x3 | ||

Plus, I made a lot of progress on it the last few weeks and although that didn't produce a PB I'm sure it will soon enough. Squats felt good. | ||

![]() Невыносимо Высокомерный (RIP) Member 11, 965 posts SQ 190, BP 140, DL 255585.0 kgs @ 95kgs UnEq | 29/10/06 Total load of crap today. Weight is down to 90.8kg, which is ridiculous - less than I was this time last year, and almost 5kg lighter than a couple of weeks ago. Went to Berlin last week, and an impromptu trip to London for work on Thursday/Friday, and travelling seems to completely f*ck me up. Definitely won't be going on holiday so close to a competition again. Just as well the competition was off really. Real pain in the arse cos I was feeling great the week before last. Now I've got 5kg to put back on, and then some more leading up to next year's comps. At least I don't have to worry about going over the 100kg mark. Squat 60x5, 90x3, 110x3x2, 130x2, 130x1, 150x1, 165x1, 175x1 PB, f182.5 The 175 was always going but it wasn't good. Might have got 177.5 but no more. It was obviously a **** day so I thought I might as well stick 182.5 on and give it my best shot. Bench Press 60x5, 80x3, 95x3, 110x2, 125x1, f132.5misloaded, f140 The 132.5 should have been 135 but there was a 2.5 missed off one side. Would probably have got 135 actually but couldn't say for sure. But 140 was never going. Deadlift 60x3, 100x3, 140x3, 170x2, 190x1, 210x1, f230 What a load of crap. 212.5x5 off blocks and I can't pull 230 today. Got to get the weight back on, and more, and build back up. New routine for next 9 weeks looks like this: Sunday Squat (heavy) Bench Press (6x2@80%) DB Bench Press (up to 50s again since they're the highest DBs in gym) Pull-up (working up to 10kgx10x10) Tuesday Front Squat (5x3/3x2/2x1/4x4 layoff and repeat) Clean/Clean Pull/Deadlift (not sure about this yet) Close Grip Bench Press (working up to 120x3x5) Machine Row Thursday Squat (6x2@80%) Bench Press (heavy) Pulldown Hammer Curl Friday Overhead Press (5x1 + 5x5) Stiff-legged Deadlift (10s) Barbell Row + maybe some extra BBing movement Squat and Bench Press are as per Russian squat routine, but twice a week rather than three times. I was going to do cleans and clean pulls rather than PL deadlifts but that idea was rather predicated on pulling a decent PB in the competition that never was. So I might have to reconsider that. Possibly go with Sheiko instead - in which case I'll have to keep the SLDLs fairly light. Oh, and some goals - End of Russian 9 week cycle - Squat 182.5, Bench 142.5 NW Unequipped - Squat 190, Bench 147.5, Deadlift 255 (592.5 total to qualify for Nationals) National Unequipped - Squat 200, Bench 150, Deadlift 272.5 @100kg | ||

![]() MIA Member 7, 621 posts SQ 80, BP 45, DL 125250.0 kgs @ 55kgs UnEq | Congrats on the squat PB ![]() Shame about the deads and bench, but guess loosing that much weight is going to put you at a severe disadvantage. | ||

![]() Does f*ck all for SugdenBarbell.co.uk Member 1, 7173 posts SQ 182.5, BP 110, DL 205497.5 kgs @ 107kgs UnEq Administrator | Never mind about today mate, at least you have something to take from it (which is good considering you lost a lot of weight). I really like the look of the new routine - I will be watching with interest to see what ideas to steal from it. Sorry about the 135 misload mate, I felt like a right dick. If it's any consolation, it looks like it was flying up on the video. | ||

Gone squatting Member 12, 386 posts SQ 250, BP 155, DL 260665.0 kgs @ 90kgs UnEq | You can't expect to have a good session after losing 5kg. To get a squat PB after losing that much weight is impressive, nice work. | ||

![]() I am a bench-only guy Member 3, 10040 posts SQ 185, BP 175, DL 235595.0 kgs @ 140kgs UnEq Administrator | Yeah, given the conditions any PB was pretty good going. I also think the new routine looks interesting - I am increasingly thinking about trying something similarish (but on a three day split), probably starting after christmas. | ||
