Still a long way to go to be as big, strong and as much of a bas***d as i actually want to be though! kirkynick said:A page full of PBs! Very strong indeed. Cheers. I changed up my training with regards pressing and its seemed to work. Hopefully it will continue for a while yet!

Member 2298, 1768 posts SQ 255, BP 200, DL 320 775.0 kgs @ 127kgs UnEq	Monday 20th October Been flat out at work recently so struggled getting training in but should be back to normal now. Bench Bar x 10 Bar x 5 60x5 110x3 150x1 180x1 200x1 - pb and probably could have got another but felt like a ton! Paused bench 170x3 170x3 170x3 Left it there as will have to train shoulders Wednesday and don't want the triceps tired like last week.

Member 2298, 1768 posts SQ 255, BP 200, DL 320 775.0 kgs @ 127kgs UnEq	Wednesday 22nd October Had to train tonight so I can be fresh as possible for the comp on Saturday. Learnt last week that I need more then 1 day rest between bench and shoulders so I wasn't expecting much. Strict press Bar x 8 Bar x 5 70x4 100x2 110x1 120x3 135xf - nearly had it but not today Paused strict press 110x3 110x3 110x3 Il probably do some legs on Friday then just go all out for the bench on Saturday. Been reading up a lot on olympic lifting recently and I'm thinking about trying to properly learn the lifts. As I'm unable to squat currently I'm going to work on the stretches to allow me to do the lifts correctly when I get the knee sorted. I can't see how learning these can hurt strongman training and will hopefully allow me to perfect technique and avoid injuries in the future.

Member 2298, 1768 posts SQ 255, BP 200, DL 320 775.0 kgs @ 127kgs UnEq	Tuesday 28th October Bike x 10mins Deadlift (in oly shoes) 70x3 120x1 170x1 210x1 240x1 210x3 Found it very heavy and awkward tonight. Definitely have a weakness in my back since the previous injury. Think I'm going to try the plan I used on my legs to get some big reps on the deadlift and hopefully build some muscle and overcome that weakness. Il start on 180kg next week.

Member 2298, 1768 posts SQ 255, BP 200, DL 320 775.0 kgs @ 127kgs UnEq	Tuesday 4th November Bike x 10mins Loads of stretching, mainly wrists so I can get that clean grip. Deadlift 70x5 110x3 150x1 180x3 180x3 180x3 f**ked off as back not feeling good. Too many dickheads in the gym aswell. Think I need to rethink my training.
