That would be nice haha. Like I said, I'm following your progress. I really want to get a session in with you at SV! | ||

Member 4683, 257 posts SQ 200, BP 117.5, DL 270587.5 kgs @ 82.1kgs UnEq | 31-03-2014 HB Squat (beltless): 155kg x 3 reps x 2 sets Bench (Paused): 100kg x 3 reps 95kg x 5 reps Front Squat (beltless): 110kg x 5 reps x multiple sets Notes: Bench comeback is officially in motion. Pain free and full of enthusiasm. Front squats were tremendously easy as was the HB squat (2nd set). 13 days to go, just a couple of big sessions to go; Wednesday and Thursday, then a lighter week to follow from Sunday. | ||

Member 786, 2077 posts SQ 262, BP 155, DL 300717.0 kgs @ 122kgs UnEq | that's a spot on last heavy session imo , very smart I think it will pay off well many folk would max out and potentially harm their chances of going 9/9 and of achieving a total that actually reflected their true level of strength | ||

Monday: Hb Squat - 110kg x 5 x 3 reps Deadlift - 180kg x 2 x 3 reps Bench - 100kg x 2 reps Wednesday: Hb Squat - 130kg x 5 reps Deadlift - 145kg x 5 x 3 reps Bench - 80kg x 5 reps | ||

Cheers Buddy! I haven't been on the site for a couple of days, so I've only just seen your results from Sunday's meet... Very well done, sir! Onwards now to the Brits Well, I've always been told to open with a weight you've tripled? So with that in mind; 1st Lifts Squat - 190 Deadlift - 250 Bench - Since the injury I've only hit 97.5 for 4. I'm going to bench a dismal 100kg on the day and leave it at that. Frustratingly I was well on track for 120, but no point crying over spilt milk.... 2nd Lifts Squat - 205kg Deadlift - 270kg Bench - N/A 3rd Lifts Squat - 210/215kg Deadlift - 275/280kg Bench - N/A What's your opinion? | ||

Member 4683, 257 posts SQ 200, BP 117.5, DL 270587.5 kgs @ 82.1kgs UnEq | 11-04-2014 LB Squat - 105kg x 5 x 3 reps Bench - 65kg x 5 x 3 reps Deadlift - 205kg x 3 reps Last session complete. Weighed in at exactly 82.9kg this morning, which is spot where I want to be. Aside from the hand injury, this preparation has gone tremendously well. I've been informed there are well over 70 lifters competing, Sunday, and as an 83kg lifter, I shall be in section B (meaning I wont be weighing in till midday). I think it's safe to say it's going to be a long day. | ||
