We both had stinkers, in all fairness craig was in bed with fever until 24 hours out, I just had a bad one no particular reason  He hit 535kg at 79kg. His best in comp is still 555kg at 79kg in just a belt.Both of us are at the BUCS so i'll see you there!  | ||

knows his sleds Member 399, 1545 posts SQ 250, BP 175, DL 340765.0 kgs @ 95kgs UnEq | Todays session (18/10/09) 1) IPF SQUAT (MED STANCE, MID BAR, CLOSE GRIP, OL SHOES, BELT) 1x3@60kg (sexual) 1x3@80kg ('' '') 1x3@100kg (" ") 1x3@120kg 1x3@140kg 1x3@150kg 1x3@160kg 1x3@170kg 1x3@180kg 1x1@180kg (paused) 1x1@190kg (paused - http://www.facebook.com/video/video.php?v=...837&ref=mf) 1x1@200kg (back to wide stance after some stretching...a good 2-3" below parallel and mission accomplished ) 2) PAUSED CLOSE GRIP BENCH (12") 1x3@60kg 1x3@80kg 1x3@100kg 2x2@112.5kg (PB) 1x1@112.5kg (missed second, bicep tendon hurting on descent) 3) DEADLIFT 1x1@140kg 1x1@180kg 1x1@220kg 1x1@260kg (well that was quick and easy) 4) EZ TRICEP PRESS 2x15 5) PLANK 2 sets of 60 seconds NOTES; Productive. After some very aggressive adductor and glute medius stretching I've changed the initial analysis, wide is gay but definitely a possibility assuming I can keep the closer hand grip (a bit nasty on the bicep tendon but has advantages for depth). It does allow for a rapid descent which is a big plus for me. Gona have to start pressing before squats for training at this rate...bicep tendon doesn't like squats. | ||

knows his sleds Member 399, 1545 posts SQ 250, BP 175, DL 340765.0 kgs @ 95kgs UnEq | Todays session (20/10/09) 1) IPF SQUAT 1x3@60kg (high bar, 3 second pause until stated otherwise) 1x3@80kg 1x3@100kg 1x3@120kg 1x3@140kg 1x1@165kg 1x1@170kg 1x1@180kg (low bar 3 second paused) 1x1@195kg 1x1@200kg (normal) 1x1@230kg (4th pin) 1x1@255kg (4th pin - MISS) 2) PAUSED BENCH (WITH SIGNALS) 1x5@80kg 1x5@90kg 1x5@100kg 1x5@110kg 1x4@120kg (PB - with no spot either) 1x1@132.5kg (MISS - bit of wishing after the previous set) 3) DEADLIFT 1x1@100kg 1x1@140kg 1x1@180kg 1x1@220kg 1x1@262.5kg (much harder than sunday) 4) STANDING PRESS (PINKY ON RINGS) 3x8@50kg 5) ROW 3x10 6) EZ TRICEP PRESS 3x8 NOTES; Good session, starting to peice together some decent training again now, the squats are looking good. Aggressive adductor stretching in the arched squat position has paid off quickly. I think I have figured out the missing piece of my squat! We'll see though the next few weeks of training. Time to get some weight back on the bar.... | ||

knows his sleds Member 399, 1545 posts SQ 250, BP 175, DL 340765.0 kgs @ 95kgs UnEq | Todays session (21/10/09) 1) IPF SQUAT (FORM WORK)! 1x3@60kg 1x3@80kg 1x3@100kg 1x3@120kg 1x3@140kg 1x3@160kg 1x1@180kg (all sets controlled descent, very upright) 2) RACK PULL (4" OFF THE FLOOR) 1x1@150kg 1x1@200kg 1x1@230kg 1x1@260kg (PB) 1x1@280kg (PB - more in the tank too...300kg fresh?) NOTES; Just another quick sess to work on form and things are coming along nicely...deadlift consistency is through the roof right now and handling 90% 3-4 times a week seems to be no problem right now. Just gota get the squat to the same level and then happy days! | ||

knows his sleds Member 399, 1545 posts SQ 250, BP 175, DL 340765.0 kgs @ 95kgs UnEq | Todays session (22/10/09) 1) IPF SQUAT (MORE FORM WORK) 1x3@60kg 1x3@80kg 1x3@100kg 1x3@120kg 1x3@140kg 1x3@160kg 1x1@180kg 2) PAUSE BENCH (WITH SIGNALS) 1x5@70kg 1x5@80kg 1x5@90kg 1x5@100kg 1x1@115kg 1x2@125kg (PB - very easy as 'PBs' go, third there perhaps) 3x8@100kg 3) STANDING PRESS (PINKY ON RING) 3x8@50kg 4) BARBELL ROW 4x10 5) OVERHEAD EXTENSION 4x15 NOTES; Bench felt great today, especially considering I am on more volume than usual right now (alot more upper body work overall). Squat is showing progress each session, depth is a good 3" deeper now and positions are much improved. Not looking forward to the next few weeks training but after BUCS I am gona drop back on the squat and pulls...for snatch, clean and jerk. | ||

Best way to get the form down is to hammer them I guess. Nice job on the bench pb Gota get them right a few months ago I hit 235kg for 3 in the gym...something went wrong along the way. I even hit 235kg in Welsh nationals comp....then 230kg at Nationals! Just a case of working the form hard and getting things right...I should be hitting 250kg at 100kg really. Bench is lame but its coming up, I'll aim for 132-135 at British uni's | ||

Didnt feel as strong as earlier in the week when I pulled 280kg off pins from mid shin but ok. The bench flew off the chest! Definitely closing in on 3 plates. Bodyweight is still 103.5kg so things are looking good. 135kg paused next week? Squats are getting better every session I will start to push for PB's again in a week or so once I feel this new form is nailed. | ||

Ye my shoulder strength is really subpar so hopefully once I push that up I can hit 140kg. That should push my total into the 680 range once I peak my squat and deadlift out properly. | ||

Since the tendonitus my squat has gone backwards significantly (initially it was load that was the problem so I trained Korte to accumulate volume rather than risk injury). Hopefully in a little while I will squat the 250kg that is well overdue! | ||
