A single at 115 is really pathetic James, it needs to be over 120 before the end of August.

Lot's of volume Malc but topping out with doubles at 80% max, the plan is to hit 90% (207.5) doubles before August.

Squats start Wednesday with lots of volume but topping out with doubles at 80% max again.

All part of the Finch 8 week plan prior to the "All England".
