Wednesday 16th April.

Nine lifters today, plus the Paralympic lads from 7.
Weighed in at 113.00Kg.

Deficit Deadlifts from my new 115mm platform!
2 x 5 x 70
5 x 90
3 x 110
3 x 130
2 x 150
2 x 160
1 x 170
1 x 180
2 x 160
3 x 150
Fairly easy session really, a vid of the 180 pull is here:
https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?v=1461389504096099&set=vb.14...
Could have gone a little higher maybe but my best from the old (somebody stole it)75mm platform was only 190 so I am happy with this.

No benching, giving the shoulders a night off.

Snatch.
Lots up to a 56Kg PB, it's only 1Kg better than my previous best but i'm satisfied as I am really poor at these.

Monday 28th April.

Weighed in at 112.5Kg.

For the past 3-4 years I've been wearing my lever belt but not actually doing it up before lifting, after tweaking my back last Monday I thought that i'd get back into the habit of actually doing it up!

Squats, Front & Back.
10 x 20
5 x 20 Front.
5 x 70
3 x 70 Front.
5 x 90
3 x 90 Front.
3 x 110
1 x 100 Front.
3 x 125
1 x 105 Front.
2 x 135
1 x 110 Front.
1 x 145
1 x 115 Front.
Deliberately kept the weights light, struggled to breath with the belt tightened however it was okay for singles and the back felt well supported.

Bench.
20 x 20
8 x 60
8 x 6 x 80
Another light session.

Finished with some light Hex bar deadlifts up to 168Kg, kept the belt on and the back straight.
Happy

Dont bother doing rack pulls Ian, you wont get anything from them with the exception of stronger grip/possible bigger traps, unless thats what your after do them of blocks as it better replicates a deadlift from the floor with the flex in the bar etc.

Panic not young Mark.
I just wanted to know what it felt like to hold 260kg.
Answer = Bloody Heavy!
