good with physics, not so with grammar Member 900, 2544 posts SQ 300, BP 220, DL 350870.0 kgs @ 95kgs UnEq | SuperSteel101 said: Weighted pull ups are good fun, I always enjoy doing them. For a long time I just hooked a dumbell in my feet and did them that way, but I definately feel they are a lot better with a good belt. I bought one of the Iron Mind ones off of Buzz recently, not cheap but well worth the money! I think I may have to look into buying one soon. | ||

over 1000 posts and still no tagline Member 865, 1370 posts SQ 200, BP 155, DL 250605.0 kgs @ 80.6kgs UnEq | Did some deadlifting today, hit an easy 5 rep set and then worked up to what would be my opener if I decide to do the competition in December. Deadlift 1 x 5 70 kgs 1 x 5 120 kgs 1 x 5 150 kgs 1 x 5 172.5 kgs 1 x 5 195 kgs 1 x 1 220 kgs 1 x 1 240 kgs 3 x 3 140 kgs Good Mornings 3 x 10 Decline Crunches 3 x 10 Today was a useful gauge of things as my legs were still sore from the high reps on Tues, but the 240 was still easy. If I can do it easily on a day like this it should make for a very easy opener at the next competition. Also a good session for the other guys as well, Martin hit a pb deadlift, Bryan seems to be getting to grips with pulling sumo and big Simon pulled 300. | ||

Alex who runs the Palace of Arts club, where I train twice a week, and another guy who trains there are putting on a BDFPA comp in December so I figured I might give it a pop. I've not made my mind up for sure as yet though. | ||

It will be interesting to see if this approach is more effective in the coming weeks.Bench Press 1 x 10 20 kgs 1 x 8 60 kgs 1 x 5 80 kgs 1 x 3 95 kgs 1 x 3 110 kgs 1 x 7 122.5 kgs Paused Bench Press 5 x 5 Kroc Rows 1 x 10, 1 x 10, 1 x 50 (each side) Overall a good session, though I need a new plan on the rows, the heaviest dumbell at each of the gyms I train at is 50 kgs unfortunately and I'm not sure there is much point in me continuing to add 5 reps to the top set each week with that kind of weight. Ideally the gyms would get heavier dumbells, but that most likely won't be hapening anytime soon so what I think I will do is add in another rowing movement before them and also start doing sets across at the top weight on the dumbell rows. Maybe 3 sets of pendlay rows then move on to the dumbell rows and do 3 x 20 with the 50's and add reps each week again. Other suggestions are most welcome! | ||

Heavy Barbell Rows are your best friend or one handed t-bat rows are nice. | ||

Yeah that was my thinking with adding in the Pendlay rows, basically a barbell row but performed in a very strict fashion. Might give the t-bar rows a pop too, cheers. | ||
