Did some hard 5's squating last week. 1st time doing hard 5's in over a year and it killed me. Yeah, doing 5s is hard mate. I think they are awesome for squats. What rep range do you normally do Ian? Oh and thanks T, up to 240 next time for 5s, Im a tad stronger than last time I did 5s so hopefully it should translate to a bigger single  | ||

 some nice relaxing jazz. Member 77, 12599 posts SQ 265, BP 165, DL 280710.0 kgs @ 93kgs UnEq | What rep range do you normally do Ian? 1-2 with occasional tripples. My squat last year was built around doing a lot of singles (not max's) with some doubles thrown in. Add in some box squating a little GM's and that was it. This year I plan to go down the reps from 5 to singles and see how that pans out. Probably 2 weeks at each rep range before going round again. I'll also be adding in the equipped squat to. Am looking forward to the meet in feb! Emailed the organiser yestardy to put me name down. | ||

He's BACK Member 177, 1039 posts SQ 230, BP 155, DL 300685.0 kgs @ 95kgs UnEq | Thanks Sivvy, that is a mighty fine bird! Marc, I have done 5x5 on and off for a couple of years now, I love it. Although it can be a bit repetitive, the results are worth it. I also do other rep ranges like 3x3/3s/1s. Sometimes off season I may go with higher bodybuilding style reps. Anyway, I was sick on friday, Im guessing with the same bug everyone else has got. I still trained after though and had a good session. Seated military press 20x20 60x8 95x6 95x6 95x6 this equals the best I have done on this set/rep scheme and it was comfortable EZ bar curls 20x12 57.5x6 57.5x6 57.5x6 20mins stairs, 10mins treadmill powerwalk. And after this I felt rough as f**k. I didnt want to go in to work the next day but other people were off sick so I had no choice. I rested as much as possible and feel good today. As I am benching tuesday and working all day and night tomorrow I have to squat at 6:30 tomorrow morning! Luckily Sivvy is a dedicated man also, and will be squatting with me. | ||

He's BACK Member 177, 1039 posts SQ 230, BP 155, DL 300685.0 kgs @ 95kgs UnEq | I trained with Carl yesterday morning at stupid oclock. Squats 20x10 60x10 100x8 140x5 180x3 belt from here on 197.5x5 197.5x5 197.5x5 197.5x3 197.5x2 tank was empty! Front squats 125x6 125x6 125x6 Standing calf raises 100x8 290x6 290x6 290x6 A good session. Had to wait a while for the rack though, so I spent a bit more time on gentle cardio to warm up. Although I didnt get all 5 sets I was pleased as I felt very strong, its just that it is hard to keep doing sets of 5 that are so close to your max. | ||

some nice relaxing jazz. Member 77, 12599 posts SQ 265, BP 165, DL 280710.0 kgs @ 93kgs UnEq | I am sure of it too. More in some people, however I heard Phil say his 5's where closer to a pb than most? I found 180x5x3 hard work let alone 3 fives with pretty much 200! What are you aiming for squat wise on the 17th Phil. Don't worry if you don't want to talk about it, cards to chest etc etc! I will be going for 230 on my 3rd attempt, as long as 1 and 2 go in that is! | ||

He's BACK Member 177, 1039 posts SQ 230, BP 155, DL 300685.0 kgs @ 95kgs UnEq | Yes, my squat does seem to be better at reps than singles but then I rarely do singles raw so perhaps I need to do lower reps to get stronger at them. Thing, I never used to have problems with my wrists, perhaps Im just turning in to a girl! If I use a straight bar I can cope, but the pain just gets progressively worse each week. There is still a little pain with the EZ, but nowhere near as bad. Oh, Iain, Im not shy about talking about what I hope to get. Im hoping for a minimum of 220, but depending on how it goes I may try to follow what you have already done and go for 500lbs (227.5). We will see mate. 230 will be excellent for 90kgs. | ||
