Thanks guys. I felt pretty good after the workout - decided that I had done pretty well for my first session and look forward to taking on the equipped stuff again until I master it The bruises are the biggest discomfort as I bruise very badly and takes a long time to go away!
On an upside, I am starting to *want* my knee wraps tighter these days - must be a good sign!

If you don't have a big Phil, you need a dance

I took that vid of pete and was in a daze for hours after !!
i used the technique and it works a treat !!
great benching, ah the joys of shirted benching !! it can only help the raw benching too as you get used to more weight in your hands

Friday 16th Nov Swim in the morning.
Equipped squats
Bought some Titan suit-slip-on tights and it made all the difference
10x20kg suit bottoms
5x60kg suit bottoms
3x80kg suit bottoms
3x90kg straps up - not parallel
3x100kg straps up and loose knee wraps - not parallel but easy as pish!
3x3x110kg everything pretty tight - wasnt paralllel but I think it was more psychological than anything. Was pretty easy Was going to do another set but was suddenly hit by fatigue so stopped. First time I have shouldered 110kg on squats - felt HEAVY.
Deadlifts (raw)
5x60kg
3x90kg
3x100kg
2x110kg
5x2x120kg - wow tiring!
Rows
3x10x40kg
Shrugs
10x40kg
10x50kg
10x60kg
10x70kg which is about the right working weight for me
Pullups: 4,4,3,3,3,3
Hanging leg raises 3 x 5
L-hold leg raises 3x10
V-ups 3 x 20
Reverse hypers 3 x 10

Very, very nice lifting and great deadlifting after all that squating. It will be good to see you using equipment at the comp in Dec, I can wait.
