I'm doing singles on squats tonight and trying for 5 x 1 with 170 which is my comp PB. The hamstrings have healed almost fully and I'm able to deadlift with some decent weight again, next singles session is 5 x 1 at 205 which is only 5 kg off my comp PB. | ||

I've got definite plans to stay 'on routine' for 6 months, no single pb attempts, no comps etc, although Malc has put the idea of a comp in Feb into my head. | ||

Member 541, 4901 posts SQ 192.5, BP 120, DL 222.5535.0 kgs @ 92.8kgs UnEq | Yes, i think it is good to stay 'on routine' for long periods rather than always chopping and changing. I think i might give the Wendler 5-3-1 a go from January. | ||
