‘downsizing’ Member 5704, 3234 posts SQ 280, BP 210, DL 320810.0 kgs @ 96.3kgs UnEq | Next comp will be GPC euros in finland - will stay at 100kg As always aim is to improve total and go over 800kg @ 100 which is something I don't think many have done raw in UK - Martin brown and Tom Martin the only two I can think of. To achieve this: 1. Clean up diet 2. squat to over 300kg - just improving how to use wraps will be sufficient 3. Bench sensibly don't get injuries hampering prep and go over 200kg 4. Improve hook grip always feel weight is slipping over 280kg feel like I can't rip the weight hard off the floor. 5. Manage fatigue v attempts better - if I'm feeling done in take a max deadlift on 2nd. I was more interested in breaking a masters record than simply bettering total so did a hard pull with 291 that left me spent for 300. Would be better to have just done 300 straight off as I'd got it second attempt. | ||

‘downsizing’ Member 5704, 3234 posts SQ 280, BP 210, DL 320810.0 kgs @ 96.3kgs UnEq | Catts Paused squats in rack not the comp stands so a tight squeeze bar x loads and shoulder stretches 60 x 5 100 x 3 140 x 2 - 2m wraps on loose 170 x 2 200 x 2 - tighter wrap 220 x 2 - add belt 235 x 2 - walkout PB easy Bench - comp style with hold at top and pause 20 x 20 40 x 8 60 x 5 80 x 4 100 x 3 110 x 3 x 2 - alternate close and normal 120 x 3 x 2 - alternate close and normal 130 x 3 - normal 140 x 3 - sling shot Pull downs 3 x 6 Hammer curls 2 x 10 Feeling strong so went for a PB was easy no psyching up or slow down of weight at all - got my mind on a 600lb walked out pause now. Learning to keep tight and hold breath has helped massively here. | ||

‘downsizing’ Member 5704, 3234 posts SQ 280, BP 210, DL 320810.0 kgs @ 96.3kgs UnEq | Ralls Bench press pauses 30 x 20kg 5 x 70 4 x 100 3 x 125 3 x 140 3 x 150 3 x 160 3 x 170 slingshot 3 x 180 slingshot OHP 3 x 8 Pull downs 3 x 5 Supposed to be a 140 max today but feeling good and elbow not annoying me so worked up heavier all weights felt pretty good. experimenting with a 3 inch wider grip to see if reducing ROM will overcome my sticking point. | ||

Need to leg drive better on 180+ weights or this will happen again! | ||

I'll be doing the one in Finland too. Hopefully over 700 by then. Hope to see it go well for you | ||
