5's on front squats ain't nice but i think they are a necessary evil for a spell, although my dodgy wrist would probably disagree!!!

Eddie Halstead is organising, i'm sure he'd be happy for you to lift as a guest. If you decide you want to do it, just let me know nearer the time and i'll drop Ed a line for you and get details. They usually only want entries a month in advance to plenty of time yet.

Training is nothing but ok, a far cry from being good but the new approach of not taxing the joints and avoiding injuries is paying off in that I'm healthier and enjoying my training a bit more, just having to accept that the big weights just aint gonna happen any time soon Unhappy

Didnt realise there was a c&j on the PB chart. I've put my all time best on there, for although it was many moons ago, it is the most i've ever done Grin

When you take into account the down and outs mate, not much training, injuries, competitions, the fcuking weather etc; training reports i read are bread and butter, ground stuff no pretty face but it will soon resume to its own standard.

I know you're unhappy with it at this time, but i believe this is the kind of doors you have to walk through before you're back home again.

One day at a time, so far so good! Wink


Yeah in the pb charts it is call floor to overhead which is actually clever in that anyone can add his own brick!

No great ambitions to get back up to top weights now really. If I can creep it up to a regular 120/150 I'll be happy as that's enough to be competitive in the Masters, and i reckon is do-able without too much risk of injuries occurring.

Yeah did 180 back in May 1990, a spritely 21 years old and weighing 100k.

A long time ago and not a PB i'm likely to beat now LOL

f**k me, just realised that that was 20 years ago!!!! Unhappy
