at the moment I mostly train at home and 185 is all the weight I have,so ive got to buy some more plates or wait till I go to the farm powerlifting club.Since Ive just bollocked my wife for frivolous spending I dont think I can swing buying the plates at the mo.(I always like to keep the moral high ground)

squatting today and I kept it simple concntrating on getting below paralell which I think I have finally achieved and have video evidence to proove it!

squats 80k x5 90kx5 100kx5 120k x1 130kx1 130kx1 140fail

weighted situps 10k 10/10/10

not bothered that the weights are very light just pleased that I finally managed to get low enough! jogged for 5 mins and did some stretching before squatting and I think that really helped me to get lower!

www.youtube.com/v/XKXMoTqCQSE 100kx5

www.youtube.com/v/Rcdm_TtxbS0 120k x1

be interested on peoples opinions if this is low enough or if I'm just deluding myself!

Looked OK to me but then I'm no expert. You could consider doing what I do - but calling them something more manly if you prefer Wink

ate virtually nothing all day and smoked about a million fags consequently felt
like s**t and trained like s**t, came in bollocked the kids and threw the fags in the bin!

bench press 90k x1 95kx1 100k fail 60k 5 60k 5

decided after failing the 100k bench there was no point trying to go heavy so kept the weights light and cut down the rest to 1 min between sets.

bor 60k 10/10/10

skull crushers 36k 10/10/10

strict dumbell preacher curls 10k 10/10/10

now off to root through the bin for my fags!!

was supposed to train at the farm in Northampton today but once again work got in the way of training damn that work thing!
trained at home instead .

Deadlifts 170x3 175x3 PB 180x2 pb platform deads 150x5 speed deadlifts 110 x5

felt pretty knackered after that so left it at that.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8vsTFgXLc80 170x3

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gyyTCghPNh8 180x2


pretty pleased aftter seeming to be going nowhere my deadlift is starting to improve going to try to hit 200k for 1 2 weeks before 1st comp to raise my confidence to get that I reckon I need 180 x4 so thats my first precomp goal.

I thought the start to the second video was the dog's bo***cks mate! - until I realised it was a cat :lol:

Nice lifting though. I too would like to get 200, but I think you're going to get there first.

Squat today trained at home outside on the patio in the rain MISERABLE!

squat 105 x5 110 x5 115x3 box squat 2" below paralell 60 5x5

video'd the squats and of the 13 squats I did 1 might have just broke paralell
which is why I changed to box squats which were the lowest I have ever gone and even with only 60k very tough! I'm starting to get seriously depressed about my squat!

good mornings 67.5 10/10/10

weighted sit ups 10k 15 /10/10

just going to box squat next week to try and build up some deeeeeeeeep
muscle memory!
