These are going pretty well. Settled on a format for squatting and benching now - one day speed (8x3 on bench, 10-12x2 on squat) and one day working up to a heavy 5, 3 or 1. Bench Press 60x5, 80x3, 90x3x8 Power Clean 50x3, 70x2x2, 80x1x2, 90x1, 95x1 Overhead Press 60x3, 70x2 Seated Lockout 70x 8, 7 Pull-up +10x6x8 | ||

I believe Rob and Hayden will be there, and I can't imagine the Boar will skip it. Fat Pete, Joe, and Aaron from Adders are all competing, as of course will be non-adlington lifters. Other than that I don't know. | ||

 Does f*ck all for SugdenBarbell.co.uk Member 1, 7173 posts SQ 182.5, BP 110, DL 205497.5 kgs @ 107kgs UnEq Administrator | Originally posted by tokar... Personally I don't like doing them after normal deadlifts. I find my back's too tired and the movement itself doesn't seem to "feel" as right coming after deadlifts. I'd do them after squats instead - I think think squats then SLDLs is a good all round lower body workout. Some people do say that it's good to balance your quad work out with equal hamstring work and obviously normal deads do this, but SLDLs more so. I like the two pulling sessions a week, one conventional and one stiff-legged - that's what I'm doing now. How does 90x10x2 feel? One thing I've found with them is you can push yourself further than you think (which obviously needs some care not to get injured). I've had sessions where I've found 120x10 difficult then gone on to do 150x10 afterwards, and it hasn't felt much harder. Dropping the sets as you go up is good. Cheers, will probably switch to that order next block of training. 90x10x2 wasn't hard but I think they will start getting hard soon. If I could get upto 120 soonish that'd be ace. | ||

Bench Press (fairly narrow grip) 50x5, 70x5, 90x5, 100x5, 105x5 Stiff-legged Deadlift 60x10, 80x10x3 DB Bench Press 35sx10, 8, 7 Unbelievably s**t.

Невыносимо Высокомерный (RIP) Member 11, 965 posts SQ 190, BP 140, DL 255585.0 kgs @ 95kgs UnEq | 19/10/07 32kg kettlebell Did a circuit of: One arm Swing 10/10 L/R Turkish Get-up 1/1 Sidebend 10/10 Clean & Push Press 1/1 Bent Press 1/1 three times. Very pleased I managed to do bent presses. Not far from that to a strict press. Plus they're fun. | ||

Невыносимо Высокомерный (RIP) Member 11, 965 posts SQ 190, BP 140, DL 255585.0 kgs @ 95kgs UnEq | 20/10/07 32kg kettlebell Just messed about really, doing various things including one arm swings, get-ups, clean and push press, bent presses and... snatches! They weren't too hard in the end, did a set of 5 with each hand and it's cardio rather than strength that's the limiting factor. | ||

Невыносимо Высокомерный (RIP) Member 11, 965 posts SQ 190, BP 140, DL 255585.0 kgs @ 95kgs UnEq | 21/10/07 Box Squat 50x3x2, 75x2, 85x2, 95x2, 105x2, 115x2, 125x2, 13x2, 145x2, 155x2, 160x2, 105x2x2 Very good stuff. Bench Press 60x3, 80x3, 92.5x3x8 Snatch Pull 60x3, 80x3x6 This is the first phase of my new deadlift plan. I really like this exercise, got some good speed on them and had quite sore traps afterwards too. Don't like shrugs, so these are a good alternative to those as well. Clean and Press 70x1x2 Pull-up BWx10x6 | ||

Невыносимо Высокомерный (RIP) Member 11, 965 posts SQ 190, BP 140, DL 255585.0 kgs @ 95kgs UnEq | 23/10/07 Bit of kettlebell stuff - practising snatches, a few clean & bent presses, swings 24/10/07 Kettlebell Two arm swing 15 sets of 10 Was intending to do 20 sets but my back was feeling a bit tight. Then did a few bent presses and push presses. For some reason I'm a lot better at all unilateral movements on my left side, which is very odd. I'm sure it's a technique rather than a strength thing (on the bent press, for example, I can tell that my clean and therefore my starting position in the bent press are much better on my left) but that doesn't explain why my usually unfavoured left should fare better. | ||

Невыносимо Высокомерный (RIP) Member 11, 965 posts SQ 190, BP 140, DL 255585.0 kgs @ 95kgs UnEq | 25/10/07 Squat 50x5, 80x5, 105x5, 125x5, 140x5, 155x5 Actually a PB set of 5 - but I've done 150x10 and 150x5x5 so it doesn't really count. Still, heading in the right direction. Close(ish) Grip Bench Press 50x5, 70x5, 90x5, 100x5, 110x5 SLDL off block 60x10, 90x10x3 DB Bench Press 37.5s x 10, 10, 9 (Much better than last week) Pendlay Row 90x10x3 | ||
