He did 260 shortly after IIRC. Pretty sure its 235. Sounds more likely. What do you reckon 230 off plates ought to be worth off the floor? | ||

So I agree you should definitely give it a crack. If the 240 at your last comp is anything to go by then all the more reason. | ||

Невыносимо Высокомерный (RIP) Member 11, 965 posts SQ 190, BP 140, DL 255585.0 kgs @ 95kgs UnEq | 13/4/07 Clean & Press 50x3x2, 60x3, 67.5x2, 75x2x5 Barbell Row 75x3x2, 100x2x2, 120x2x2, 132.5x2x5 Close Grip Bench Press 60x10, 80x5, 95x10x3 SLDL off block 60x10, 100x10, 122.5x10, 142.5x10 Excellent session. 75x2 is a PB on overheads (even for one set); 132.5 is more than I've done on rows before, and 95x10 is a PB on close grips. 142.5x10 is, I think, 2.5kg less than my PB10 on SLDL - but 150x10 is in store next time. | ||

Невыносимо Высокомерный (RIP) Member 11, 965 posts SQ 190, BP 140, DL 255585.0 kgs @ 95kgs UnEq | 15/4/07 Squat 70x3, 90x3, 110x3, 130x3, 150x2x5 Feeling sluggish on these so starting taper. 140 for doubles on Thursday, then 130 for doubles last workout before comp. Bench Press 60x3, 80x3, 100x2x2, 110x2x8 Got some practice in with press commands. DB OH Press 35sx 4, 3, 3 Pull-up +30x 7, 5, 6 Very pleased with the pull-ups. Hopefully will be putting up Millsesque numbers before long! I am ill today though. Don't really know what with or whether it'll last but it's very annoying. Don't feel too bad most of the time but keep getting inexplicable pains in my stomach, combined with mild cold symptoms. Off work today, so will just rest and try to eat properly and be better for tomorrow. | ||

Eat.Cycle.Sleep.Win Member 2, 12511 posts SQ 190, BP 150, DL 280620.0 kgs @ 99kgs UnEq | Originally posted by tokar... Originally posted by jonnymills... Very nice - same as Olly's best, no? He did 260 shortly after IIRC. Really? As I recall, he'd also done 230x3 off the floor - which I quite fancied myself getting but the power seemed to have drained from me after the platform stuff. My best off the floor is 240x3, although 230 was my best for quite a while. Hadnt done either of these when I pulled the 260kg though, heaviest for more than a single in the lead up to the 260 was 235x2. As to what you'll get out of a 230kg platform pull im not sure. It really depends where you're weak. Im good off the floor so dont get that much more off the floor, but Ive seen lots of lifters with huge differentials. Hope you feel better tomorrow mate! | ||

always lookIng for the extra UT2 work. Member 9, 18279 posts SQ 255, BP 167.5, DL 330752.5 kgs @ 103kgs Eq | No I meant 230 was your best platform dead around the time when you pulled 260 off the floor, no? | ||

Clean & Press 50x3x2, 55x2x3 Deadlift 55x3, 90x3, 120x3, 150x3x2, 170x2x2, 180x2x5 Machine Row 120x10, 127.5x8, 135x8, 142.5x8, 150x6x2 Miraculously strong on the rows tonight, despite illness. Quite odd. Four workouts to go before competition - Thursday 19/4 fairly light squat, heavy bench Friday 20/4 heavy stuff including press and SLDL Monday 23/4 light bench & deadlift Thursday 26/5 light squat & deadlift EDIT - got my BWLA membership card! | ||

I'm thinking: 175/185/190 130/135/140 230/245/250 They might sound a bit ambitious but ambitious is the name of the game in this competition. I need a 570 total so bombing out in pursuit of it is no worse than getting 567.5. | ||

Looking forward to seeing you nail them on the day. edit: not agreeing they're ambitious but with the lifting philosophy. | ||
