I'll be doing the one in Finland too. Hopefully over 700 by then. Hope to see it go well for you thanks - sure you'll beast 700kg no problems. as for 800kg+ unequipped at 100kg afaik: martin brown - 840kg tom martin - 890kg there's a few others now knocking on the door. nicholas foxall could probably cut to 100 and do it - 835kg at light 110kg in brits. | ||

That 291 dead looked easy! thanks - once i really nail the hook grip i think there's well over 300kg. it's what's really holding me back from tearing the weight up hard as i can. | ||

Pleased with SLDL work though got some fluids and bananas in by then. | ||

Not done standing OHP for ages weight was easy enough but shoulders terrible flexibility so leaning back too much. won't be doing them again for that reason lol | ||

Deadlift actually pleased despite fail. Built up a fair bit of fatigue going so heavy last 2 weeks and after those squats too. Stiff bar and managed to get it a moving just couldn't get past mid shin weak point but it was close. Competition after a taper on deadlift bar think 300+ easily there. | ||

‘downsizing’ Member 5704, 3234 posts SQ 280, BP 210, DL 320810.0 kgs @ 96.3kgs UnEq | deloading/light now over christmas holidays, hip is sore, shoulder sore and definitely struggling with sleep so CNS is probably a bit fried. may go to ralls once next week but i'm not going to do anything heavy at all... next year i'm going to train more sensibly. got some great 'beginner' gains moving from general training to proper focused powerlifting (especially since training as part of a team at ralls). with that in mind benching: it's been pointed out by 2 most experienced lifters there (andy bolton+dave carter) that i need to work on my benching setup to squeeze another 10-15kg without getting any 'stronger' so that will be a training modality now. watching likes of emma and macca do their setup makes me realize how far i've got to go technically there. squatting needs more sets of 3, building up from about 75% 1RM - new comp wraps as well, the titaniums are spent and the lilliebridges have lost some oomph. lilliebridges will become the new 'training' wrap deadlifting again more doubles and triples around 75-85%.. no heavy grinders - avoid temptation to get involved in block pull battles however fun they are. | ||
