Well it's true that there were no failures but only because I made no attempt at the 210!

Managed to drop 15kg on my big toe last night and get a Bruised toe. Hobbling about so might not make it to the British to spot/load.

Went to the Farm tonight with every intention of getting a full session in before setting the hall out for tommorows GBPF Seniors, however as only 6 of us turned out to help I dropped the training to get the place ready.
Just Malc, Kev, Pete, Sharn, Shaun & myself putting the work in!
Weighed in at 113.6kg.

I'll have a couple of light session next week before competing at he EM Masters next Saturday.

Monday 14th July.

Spent the weekend MC'ing at the British Seniors, it was a long hot, sweaty weekend and I've got a sore throat today for my troubles! Weighed in at 113.4Kg.

Tonight's plan was to work up to and nail next weekends openers three times.

Squat.
10 x 20
5 x 70
4 x 110
3 x 130
2 x 145
1 x 155
3 x 1 x 165 under command from Red Light Pete.
5 x 130
No problems, Pete tells me that they were all a couple of inches under.

Bench.
20 x 20
10 x 60
5 x 80
3 x 100
3 x 1 x 105 All long pauses.
No problems.

Deadlift.
5 x 70
5 x 110
4 x 140
3 x 160
2 x 175
3 x 1 x 190
No problems.

So i'll be opening 165/105/190, followed by 175/112.5/200 and I'd like a 500 total on the day. Nothing spectacular but just about right 5 weeks before the All England.

Friday 18th.
Went to the Farm but only Malc was playing out. Did some spotting for him. Weighed 113.4kg.

Saturday 19th.
East Midland Masters.
Very warm day, sweating like crazy!
Weighed in at 112.45, rounded up to 112.5kg
Squat.
Warmed up to a single at 160 then
165 three whites.
175 two whites, unsure why the red.
180 three whites.

Bench.
105 three whites.
112.5 three whites.
115 no lift, I thought the spotters took it early but ho hum.

Deadlift.
190 three whites.
200 three whites.
210 three whites.

Disappointed with the lifting, could have done more. Bench is not where it should be at present.
Looking for 195/120/225 by the All England.
