Hyper obese Pete Member 70, 17896 posts SQ 322.5, BP 205, DL 300827.5 kgs @ 133kgs Eq | Wednesday, 5th January, start 17:00 Today is a good day, still cold and not many in, Taxi Mark, Jake, Joe the terrible, Jeff and handsome Fred Bench, raw, kilos 20 x 20 20 x 20 20 x 20 70 x 5 70 x 5 70 x 5 100 x 3 110 x 2 120 x 2 130 x 1 Joe the Terrible very kindly assists with the shirt, still new, still tight and still kind get my second hand on the bar without assistance. All paused, all to blocks, most didn't quite touch 160 x 2 three blocks 180 x 1 three blocks 190 x 1 two blocks didn't touch 200 x 1 one block didn't touch 215 x 1 one block didn't touch 200 x 1 one block didn't touch We're are getting there, the last four that didn't touch all missed only by the thickness of a cigarette or so, so all were pressed off fresh air, or from the hands as some call it, the benchers among you will be aware that this is more difficult than touching. All were pressed very nicely thank you except for maybe the 215 which was a tad slower than it should have been, but as it was 215 and therefore 10 kilos higher than my best ever legit bench I am not overly worried about that. One point to note was that the last 200 was as close as the 215 so the weight, although important is not as important as you think, It's all about bottle, about fearlessness, about confidence. I'm happy, Joe's happy, Alan's happy so that will do for me and the 215 didn't feel that heavy in my hands, and that will do for me, that will oh so do for me. As it is Wednesday, I offed to oldham to let the new year in with girl number one, she then insisted that I hurl her against every wall in the place. Start as you mean to go on I say. Lovely Jubbly as Delboy once said, a not that heavy 215 and a wall-slammed blonde. Happy days | ||

Hyper obese Pete Member 70, 17896 posts SQ 322.5, BP 205, DL 300827.5 kgs @ 133kgs Eq | Friday, 7th January, start 15:45 Pin 12 lockouts, all weights in avoirdupois 154 x 10 254 x 5 354 x 5 398 x 5 454 x 2 454 x 2 454 x 3 I find these quite awkward, the problem is kowing where on the lateral plane of the pins to start from, lose the line and start from the wrong place and the game is up. The first two were quite reasonable then I lost it and it stopped dead, same on the second set, on the third young Jake gave me some splendid advice, but I just got tired after three Pin 10 lowers, still pounds 254 x 5 354 x 5 398 x 5 The last set were just too heavy and the bar was falling the last few inches, just as you reach the point where the shirt would normally start to take the strain. Still that is the point and as Tesco say, every little helps Deadlift, raw, all kilos 60 x 5 60 x 5 60 x 5 60 x 5 60 x 5 140 x 5 140 x 5 180 x 3 210 x 3 230 x 3 240 x 3 Made a bit of a meal of the first of the 240s but all the rest were sweet enough. One good point though after the nonsense I had with my grip last week, which involved murderer's gloves, straps and pinching bits of skin that are better left unpinched, this week all thorugh the workout the grip was a charm, not a hint of a problem, in fact I had to check that they were the same hands. Bit of banter with the chaps and then offski. Welsh Grand National tomorrow on the BBC and Sandown on C4. I also have to find a cobbler's and visit a splendid chip shop. There may also be a small blonde in there somewhere if I have anything to do with it. | ||

Hyper obese Pete Member 70, 17896 posts SQ 322.5, BP 205, DL 300827.5 kgs @ 133kgs Eq | Sunday, 9th January, start 13:00 Thermometer says +5 which goes along with what the car told me outside, feels colder though Standing military press, all kilos 20 x 10 20 x 10 20 x 10 20 x 10 20 x 10 30 x 5 40 x 5 45 x 5 50 x 5 50 x 5 50 x 5 50 x 5 50 x 5 Oddly, these sets all felt different, some felt heavyish and awkward and others felt smooth and easypeasy. Not sure what the difference was, rest periods the same, hand spacing the same, pretty much everything the same except for the effort required, or maybe the perceived effort required. Scampi and chips and a diet coke afterwards and a good old chat, Joe and I will be in attendance at the British Bench later in the month. Team Adlington will be there in force. So that's something to look forward to. | ||

Hyper obese Pete Member 70, 17896 posts SQ 322.5, BP 205, DL 300827.5 kgs @ 133kgs Eq | Monday, 10th January, start 17:00 "Did you get them done" asked the boss "I did" I replied "Singles then, up to 550, let's get used to them" Squats, leotard and newly heeled boots. Weights in kilos 60 x 5 60 x 5 60 x 5 60 x 5 100 x 5 140 x 5 wraps on 180 x 3 200 x 1 220 x 1 240 x 1 250 x 1 These were all a joy, the difference between the newly heeled boots and the block of wood is beyond measure, these were so deep that even a french referee who had caught me in bed with his wife could not have failed them. Smooth, deep, fluent and deep. Lovely, just what the Doctor ordered. Deep too. Spotted for DRrick who had a new shirt on tonight, one of Handsome Fred's I believe. Beautiful presses, eveyone seem to be on form tonight. The only proble is that one again firefox is playing games and won't let me post, damnit. This comes courtesy of internet explorer. Why can't every thing be like squats End 18:20 | ||

Hyper obese Pete Member 70, 17896 posts SQ 322.5, BP 205, DL 300827.5 kgs @ 133kgs Eq | Wednesday, 12th January, start 17:00 Bench, raw, all weights in kilos 20 x 20 20 x 20 20 x 20 70 x 5 70 x 5 70 x 5 100 x 3 110 x 2 120 x 1 130 x 1 Shirt on courtesy of Joe the Terrible 160 x 3 3 blocks 180 x 2 2 blocks 190 x 1 1 block try to chest now 200 x 1 didn't touch 205 x 1 didn't touch 210 x 1 didn't touch 190 x 2 didn't touch but second one was closer 180 x 2 didn't touch but second one was closer Initially tried with Rick's belt which is longer and thinner, we decided that there wasn't enough surface area for sufficient grip so we changed to my belt which is shorter and broader, this worked better. We also had a major breakthrough on the 205 as I managed to get both hands on the bar unassisted. The lemon fresh contingent didn't understand why that got a round of applause, but the stinkin' section did. Even though these were all pressed off the hands they were all reasonable enough, except for the initial 200 which headed north and prompted the belt change. many thanks to DrRick, Joe the Terrible and Handsome Jeff, it's fun, it's an adventure and I look frorward to the day when I actually get to touch my chest. It being Wednesday I headed for the home of the tubular bandage and the lovely Louise, because of an extra booking we started a little late tonight, because of this I hurled her against extra walls with more than usual force. It turns out she liles to be hurled against extra wall with more than usual force | ||
