I'd be amazed to be honest mate. I benched a double at 100 and squatted a double at 125, so well below par at the minute.

The baby is good, but f**king tiring. I'm typing this one-handed while she takes a five minute break from crying in the other arm. It won't last!

Ed, I did a quick set of 20 at 200.......then woke up and actually did:

125: 1,2,3,1,2 I think then 70 for 20. Nothing to worry a six-pack sporting fellow like youGrin I was going to deadlift and bench today, but couldn't get away. It'll have to wait until Monday/Tuesday instead. I have managed to crack out quite a few press ups this week, but I don't think that is going to get me a 200 squat any time soonUnhappy

rack pulls, quarter squats and bench today. Tried some board presses but it hurts my shoulder so I stopped. Bench feels ok at the minute.

A bit of benching today, I was doing singles at 100. I did 7, pausing the last one and thought I would see how impossibly heavy 110 felt. It went up easy as piss, so I thought I'd at least unrack 120....which also went up ok. Not exactly easy, but it was never failing. Now, my arse was up and it definitely wasn't paused, but I was f**king impressed given that I running on s**tty food habits and no sleep. I don't know what I weigh either, but it can't be much over 95 kilos, which makes me about as thick as a pencil.

I wish! I would like a 125 bench but I can't see the squat getting above 140/150. I can bench tired, but squatting heavy at the minute is too tough. A 275 would be a good result for me.

Looking at you chuck 1OO kilos overhead, I can't believe you'll only bench 90; you must be looking at at least 110/175 I would have thought, which is going to be tough for me unless I go ballistic in the next month (which isn't going to happen with baby).

175k would be an optimistic goal right now 165 is probably nearer the mark,i tried some close grips tonight and managed a dodgy arse up 100k,realistically if the shoulder holds up I might be able to add 10k to that so I'm looking around 275k as well could be whoever manages that extra 2.5k who wins.

Oh, I'm excited now! I was thinking that I was going to be 20-30 kilos off the pace, but it is definitely more interesting when we are both s**t. I'm still going to need to pull my finger out to get close-I know the competitive beast that lies within you Ed.

I might work up to a heavy single squat tomorrow and see if I can squat more than I bench!
