and thats just his waistline Member 391, 2799 posts SQ 217.5, BP 152.5, DL 272.5642.5 kgs @ 89.1kgs UnEq | Hello all I've been posting on MT for a while but thought I'd start posting here too as I have aspirations of competing as a power lifter in the near future and my training has changed accordingly. Currently I train Squats on Monday, Bench Press on Tuesday, Deadlift on Thursday and OH Press on Friday, I also do support exercises on the relevant days. I do a 3 week cycle doing 5's, triples, singles then back to 5's, I've been doing this since the start of the year, so about 6 weeks. Current bodyweight is hovering around 90 kg and all training is done raw. I weighed about 81 kg before Christmas after dieting down and was thinking about competing at 82.5 kg but recently I've started to think that 90 kg might be my 'natural' weight. | ||

Well done on the PBs and welcome. Cheers mate I'm still finding my feet with this routine to be honest, the plan is that in a few weeks I'll be at a level where the 5 singles are all I can do. I'm here to learn though so all help is greatly appreciated. | ||
