Gonna outlive my opposition !! Member 123, 4038 posts SQ 202.5, BP 135.0, DL 232.5570.0 kgs @ 117kgs UnEq | Wednesday 20th March. Last session for a few weeks as business travel takes over again. Weighed in at 119.60kg. Squat. 2 x 5 x 20 5 x 60 4 x 100 3 x 120 2 x 135 1 x 147.5 1 x 157.5 1 x 167.5 Felt heavy but never in doubt. Bench. 12 x 20 7 x 60 4 x 80 2 x 100 1 x 110 1 x 117.5 1 x 120 Failed to lock out on right. 3 x 105 5 x 95 Strange, the 117.5 was comfortable but at 120 the dodgy right shoulder gave up. Deadlift. 5 x 80 4 x 120 2 x 160 1 x 185 1 x 200 3 x 160 The 200 was tough but there might be a little more there. So a 485 total during a training session, not bad all things considered. No plans to compete this year, a lack of training plus the osteoarthritis are not condusive to competitive lifting. | ||

Gonna outlive my opposition !! Member 123, 4038 posts SQ 202.5, BP 135.0, DL 232.5570.0 kgs @ 117kgs UnEq | Done nothing for weeks as I've been travelling on business, however I've entered a competition in 6 weeks time so when i'm back in the UK next Wednesday I must get back to the Farm! | ||

Gonna outlive my opposition !! Member 123, 4038 posts SQ 202.5, BP 135.0, DL 232.5570.0 kgs @ 117kgs UnEq | Wednesday 26th June. First day back at the Farm in a while, just 6 lifters in tonight, apparently whilst i've been away some nights there have been 12-13 lifters in and some nights only 1. Weighed in at 118.05kg, lighter than I was expecting but still heavier than i'd like. Tonight and Friday will be about seeing how far I've sunk! Squats. 2 x 5 x 20 5 x 60 3 x 80 2 x 100 2 x 115 2 x 125 1 x 135 1 x 145 1 x 150 Probably my current limit, there might have been another 5 in me but no more. Bench. 10 x 20 8 x 60 4 x 80 2 x 92.5 1 x 102.5 1 x 110 2 x 100 3 x 90 7 x 70 Probably could have squeezed out 115, all self-unracked. Benching much closer than normal, index fingers about 3 inches onto the knurling and pleased to report that the wrist pain is manageable. Deadlifts Friday (aiming for 180'ish) and might go for that 115 bench. | ||

Gonna outlive my opposition !! Member 123, 4038 posts SQ 202.5, BP 135.0, DL 232.5570.0 kgs @ 117kgs UnEq | Friday 28th June. Very warm at the Farm but still 10 lifters turning out. Weighed in at 118.10kg. Deadlifts. 2 x 5 x 70 4 x 100 3 x 120 2 x 140 1 x 160 1 x 180 1 x 190 3 x 150 5 x 120 Fairly raced through these, working with Forklift we rattled through our deadlift session in around 30 minutes. No real problems but the 190 was probably the limit. Bench. 10 x 20 8 x 60 4 x 80 2 x 90 1 x 100 1 x 110 1 x 115 1 x 102.5 should have been 3x but felt wrong after first. 5 x 90 7 x 75 Strict OHP. 2 x 5 x 20 5 x 30 5 x 40 5 x 50 2 x 60 Couldn't lock the third press out. Don't normally do these but had 20 minutes left at the end of the night. So i'm at 150/115/190-455, four weeks out. Would like to hit a 500 total come competition day. | ||

Gonna outlive my opposition !! Member 123, 4038 posts SQ 202.5, BP 135.0, DL 232.5570.0 kgs @ 117kgs UnEq | Monday 1st July. Weight 118.55kg. Squats. 2 x 5 x 20 5 x 60 4 x 80 3 x 100 2 x 120 1 x 130 1 x 140 1 x 150 1 x 157.5 Well they felt rubbish but they all came up, 160 probably would not have! Bench. 10 x 20 8 x 60 4 x 80 2 x 95 1 x 105 1 x 112.5 1 x 115 3 x 102.5 5 x 92.5 7 x 80 No problems. So we move up to 157.5/115/190 = 462.5, 500 seems a long way off at the moment but small steps! | ||

Gonna outlive my opposition !! Member 123, 4038 posts SQ 202.5, BP 135.0, DL 232.5570.0 kgs @ 117kgs UnEq | Wednesday 3rd July. Weighed in at 117.65kg (wasting away). Deadlifts. 2 x 5 x 70 4 x 120 3 x 140 2 x 160 1 x 180 1 x 195 3 x 155 5 x 130 No problems, probably a little more there. Bench. 10 x 20 8 x 60 5 x 80 3 x 90 2 x 100 1 x 110 1 x 117.5 3 x 102.5 5 x 95 7 x 82.5 The 117 went up but it was right on the limit. Strict OHP. 5 x 20 3 x 5 x 40 2 x 60, wanted 3x but the bar froze just above my head height! So we're up to 157.5/117.5/195 = 470. 500 in 3 weeks time??? | ||

Member 541, 4881 posts SQ 192.5, BP 120, DL 222.5535.0 kgs @ 92.8kgs UnEq | Seems to be coming along well Ian, considering the time you had off. I also too a few weeks off between April and June. My comeback is rubbish! Any tips? | ||

Gonna outlive my opposition !! Member 123, 4038 posts SQ 202.5, BP 135.0, DL 232.5570.0 kgs @ 117kgs UnEq | Cheers Bill, I have to say it's bl**dy hard work and being 61 now does not help! But there is of course no alternative to putting the work in at the gym. The osteoarthritis in my wrist is literally a pain but other than that the time away has helped heal a few of the niggles. Friday 5th July. Weighed in at 118.75kg. Squats. 2 x 5 x 20 5 x 60 4 x 90 3 x 110 2 x 125 1 x 137.5 1 x 150 1 x 160 3 x 130 The 125 double felt very heavy, the 160 single was much more comfortable. Bench. 10 x 20 8 x 60 5 x 80 3 x 100 2 x 105 1 x 110 1 x 115 1 x 117.5 3 x 102.5 5 x 95 7 x 85. No problems. So we're up to 160/117.5/195-472.5 I'm thinking that 170/120/210-500 should be achievable in 4 weeks time. | ||
