and thats just his waistline Member 391, 2799 posts SQ 217.5, BP 152.5, DL 272.5 642.5 kgs @ 89.1kgs UnEq	Thing said: 40_plus said: Todays training Squats 10 x bar only 5 x 60 kg 5 x 100 kg 5 x 140 kg 1 x 160 kg 5 x 140 kg Very disappointing. I had every intention of doing a triple at 160 then trying a 180 pb but there was just nothing there, even the 140 x 5 was very hard. Probably a combination of the hard week last week, training in the morning not the evening and also being on reduced calories to try and drop a few pounds before the comp. think you hit the nail on the head with why the squats were disappointing for you I think the training in the morning really didn't help me but it's probably what will happen at a comp so best get used to it.

I've only got to drop a couple of kg's though so no rush.

Split my track suit bottoms when going down for the first rep at 140, had to borrow a pair from the gym owner.

Just went through the motions after that, the dips were harder than normal too.
