Monday 5th November, Adlington

Last week of squat fives this year, so let's improve on that 150 pb.

Squat 20x5x4, 70x5x2, (remove sweater as no longer cold, belt on) 115x3, 140x3, 160x5 PB

And that was that. There's probably one more rep in that, and so a few more kg, but that was what I wanted (and only 2.5kg under my current top 3) so I'm well pleased. Knackered, ear infections fired up again so in pain, so some v pleasant nonsense talked with Peter and then home.

Next, three weeks of triples, and then three weeks to a max single for Christmas. Let's see what we can see.

160 x 5 is a good set worthy of putting up on the board , as for triples, 172.5 x 3 minimum

I want considerably more than that, Mr Boar - I did 162.5x3 very badly a while ago and even so it wasn't properly difficult. Jeff - I definitely want 200 for Christmas. In fact in my heart I want 205 (being an imperial chap, really), but we'll see.

since when have you been an imperial chap ?

im sure you were as bamboozled as us when you arrived at adders - and your brain is crammed with maths stuff !!

yea, 172.5 x 3 is roughly equal to 160 x 5 or a single @ 185 , been a while since you last maxed out and 200+ would be a super christmas pressie

Heh, I wondered how long it'd be til someone asked the juice question.

We thought we trained hard at Sugden, but we wasted a lot of energy doing silly things sometimes and underestimated ourselves too. Plus we trained like cocks.

A sensible routine, massively improved form, and people around you who make you realise what a beginner you are (I only started working seriously on the big three less than a year and a half ago, for that matter) are the secret. And Alan, of course.

Wednesday 7th November, Adlington

Last week of fives.

Bench 20x20, 70x5, 90x5, 100x5, 110x5, 120x5, 127.5x5, 135x5 PB, 110x12 PB.

135 was my PB single, done only once six months earlier, at the start of the year. It wasn't a limit set. The 110s were stopped by lactic acid in the triceps rather than tiredness.

Incline Smith Bench 60x5, 80x5, 85x5, 90x5

Triceps Pressdown (in lbs) 55x5, 82.5x5, 97.5x5, 112.5x5

Quite happy Wink. Two weeks each of doubles and triples, then we'll see what we can hit.

Yup, Jeff, it's in and straight on the cleans on Friday. Want to make some serious ground on these now.

You gotta be thinking about competing soon- what about the unequipped bench press comp that runs alongside the unequipped full comp in april, that would give you a 14-15 week cycle from the begining of january
