Mighty young Joe Member 675, 2271 posts SQ 272.5, BP 180, DL 275727.5 kgs @ 114.8kgs UnEq | last smolov workout for 3 weeks, f**k im glad, i was starting to not like squatting which is a first for me. Had to try out the new bench as it can incline very steeply for shoulder press, quite chuffed with how well i did. shoulder press 40x5 50x5 60x5 70x5 Box squat 65x5 115x4 155x3 185 10x3 | ||

Mighty young Joe Member 675, 2271 posts SQ 272.5, BP 180, DL 275727.5 kgs @ 114.8kgs UnEq | Bench 45x8 70x6 87.5x6 97.5x4 102.5x4 107.5x3 112.5x3 117.5 2x2 112.5 2x3 Then some other people came in whilst i was spotting a friend for squatting so decided to join in with close grip bench, as i wanted to have some rivalry as one of the guys is around my level. CG bench 60x8 80x8 90x8 100x8(PB?) Had to run as got a lift with the friend on his bike and he had work. from what i can remember most i've ever close grip benched was 100x2 but that would have been a while ago. | ||

Mighty young Joe Member 675, 2271 posts SQ 272.5, BP 180, DL 275727.5 kgs @ 114.8kgs UnEq | training was bloody difficult today but hey ho, worked 12 hours biked 9 miles to a party got sod all sleep. However mind over matter, managed to get the workout done, which was surprising as i nearly died on the warmups. Bench 45x8 70x6 87.5x6 97.5x5 102.5x4 107.5 5x5 120x1 130xf ( somehow managed to slide the bench along when i pushed with my legs, felt alright until it was heading towards my bo***cks) Close grip 60x10 70x 14 70x? Should have deadlifted but i knew i wouldnt be pulling s**t, and was screwed all ready so went home for steak and potato waffles, the waffles were a right let down i'm sure they used to be amazing. | ||

Mighty young Joe Member 675, 2271 posts SQ 272.5, BP 180, DL 275727.5 kgs @ 114.8kgs UnEq | Close grip Bench 60x8 80x8 100x8 110x7 120x3 Add 4" board 135x1 ( took 2 attempts then failed the double) Raw Grip 140x3 140x4 Deadlift (suit on) 70x5 (conventional) 120x5 (conventional) 150x5 (sumo) 170x5 (sumo) 190x5 (") 210x2 (") 230xf (locked it basically but fell forwards, lockout is s**t at mo) definitely know that if i pull conventional i'd have to do it raw but now the question is raw conventional vs equipped sumo? | ||

Mighty young Joe Member 675, 2271 posts SQ 272.5, BP 180, DL 275727.5 kgs @ 114.8kgs UnEq | oh yeh now i've done 140kg its back to getting up my tricpes to strength before i get back in a shirt, so either close grip or raw board work, aim is 170 off a 4" board. | ||

Mighty young Joe Member 675, 2271 posts SQ 272.5, BP 180, DL 275727.5 kgs @ 114.8kgs UnEq | Back in the groove on the board work, i'll have to get a video up as i find if it doesnt come off the board fast it doesnt go, also all reps are paused on the board. Might have to aim for a higher weight before i put the shirt on though. Bench 60x5 80x5 100x5 120x3 add 4" board 140x6(PB) 150x5(PB) 160x3,5(PB) 170xf (gassed by now) Deadlift 110x3 160x3 190x3 210x3 230x2 (PB) 240xf (gone by now let it drift out) Moved my hand spacing out no trouble locking out now, i know my backs not as strong due to the lack of deadlifting so after the smolov once i add stiffleg deads back i think my deadlift will shoot up. | ||

Mighty young Joe Member 675, 2271 posts SQ 272.5, BP 180, DL 275727.5 kgs @ 114.8kgs UnEq | I was supposed to do a squat test max on monday but due to work and being hideously ill this was the test day, got to the gym and my new suit wasnt there so had to use the old one. When i was ill i knew i'd lost some weight but i could tell from when i put the suit on it was alot more than i thought, i could fit my hand under the suit with ease and pull it away from my leg. Everything considered it was ok tonight, when i get the new suit on though i expect alot better as it was pretty much useless the one i was wearing. Squat 70x5 120x5 160x3 200x3 230x1 (straps up, belt on) 260x1 280x1 (grr bloody hard at the top, think i stopped paying attention)~ Close Grip Bench 60x5 80x5 100x5 110x5 120x3 normal grip 130x1 (missed second on line) | ||

Mighty young Joe Member 675, 2271 posts SQ 272.5, BP 180, DL 275727.5 kgs @ 114.8kgs UnEq | Sounds good. Bit dissapointed today with board press but think i close gripped to close to it so triceps tired, and also last week i did so well got my expectations up. Bench 60x5 80x5 100x5 120x3 add 4" board 140x5 160x4f5 170x1f2 no board and close grip 120 2x3 (couldnt quite lock on first set the 4th rep, every muscle cramping so knew i couldnt get it Dumbell bench 22.5 x10 27.5 4x10 rotator cuff exercise Lat pulldowns 2xmax | ||

Mighty young Joe Member 675, 2271 posts SQ 272.5, BP 180, DL 275727.5 kgs @ 114.8kgs UnEq | Still in the old suit, so tonight was s**t on the squat front, to test how bad it is i hit depth without the bar with the straps up, easily. Bench 60x6 80x5 100x5 120x5 130x2 f3 Delts killing for all of the bench but still went well, tried to do 110 as back off set, no chance. Squat(old centurion) 70x5 120x5 160x3 195x3 225x3 255x1f2 ( belt + wraps,felt bar waiver and dropped head, bar went straight over my head) 200x5 ( just suit, it feels just like squatting unequipped as no bounce at all) Stiffleg deads 60x5 100x5 140 4x5 (had to go to mixed grip as grip was starting to go on 2nd set) Lat pulldowns (6)x20 (8)x15 | ||
