Put my name down for a comp in 10 weeks, probably a daft idea with the lack of training but hopefully it'll give me a kick up the arse, getting better now too.

65 x 5
85 x 3
105 x2
125 x 2
Add belt
145 x 2 x 2

Not a lot but that's it for today

noticed a lack of sessions posted this year...

a comp is always a motivator.

10 weeks is plenty of time'

He looked good mate to be fair, he was giving it 100% mate I'd say. Stones was his worst event yeh, was a pleasure to see him compete though for me personally. It was a tight comp tbh. Wasn't a lot between Loz,bish,tel and maybe even saddler in my eyes. All looking great.
Although tel was pissed off with his car walk and didn't do great on hammer hold and conans.

Cheers mate, yeh nearly there.

A bonus came today, the log at our gym has been weighed at 80k rather than the 75 we've always thought. So all my log work was 5k heavier, obviously including my pb, sweet!

Back went again after last session. Seems squatting just ain't happening. Had first session with osteopath the weekend. Very quick to diagnose that my right leg is shorter than my left, so no wonder I was in the pain I was,mostly down to tightness in my back muscles shortening my muscles therefore shrinking my leg, good thing is he thinks it's quite solvable. Had some nice snap, crackle n pop stuff done by him and feeling really positive now. Apart from the money it's going to cost a week lol, back to the gym tomorrow, fingers crossed I can start training properly again if he keeps improving my back each week
