All weights in kiograms

Push Press
60*8
105*3
125*1
132.5*Miss
120*3, *3, *3

Bench Press
100*3
145*1 Paused
160*1 Paused
115*10, *9, *8

Superset barbell rows / rear delt flyes
150 / 25 *8/8, *8/8, *8/8, *8/8

Power shrugs
310*8, *8, *8, *8

Barbell Curls
52.5*8, *8, *8, *8

Push press was supposed to be 1x1-3RM + 1x3-5RM, but mid back was cramping, something that happens occasionally with me in the rack position. The bigger weights just weren't going to go today, so to ensure I got some graft in I put up 120 for 3 x 3, and was happy with these. Bench as usual was slow with the heavy poundages due to being nervous about my dicky shoulder but were strong. The rest of the session was solid, everything was up on last week and I worked hard Happy

Session took a little longer than usual due to training with an old partner who was visiting, so spent a lot of time flapping gums.

Total time 2hrs30mins

Now for steak.

Really good session today, really pleased. The deads were fast and fluid. Deadlifted with a belt for the first time in ages today and it felt comfortable again, I've not managed to settle in the bottom position in a belt for months. Fronties were easy again this week, knees still bloody sore though. Everything else was good, all weights up on last week, feeling really positive and generally in love with the barbell at the moment. Must remember this when I struggle to put my shoes on or get out of bed haha!

Total time 1hr50mins, so had an extra long stretch Happy

They're killing me! Still, strongman is more often than not about reps, so I guess I shouldn't only be training in 1s and 3s!

I have no idea how bodybuilders can stand the feel of a pumped muscle! Awful sensation lol!

Power cleans
60kg *3, *3
100kg *1

100kg *3

Deadlift
180kg *3

270kg *1
285kg *1
230kg *5

Squat ATG Paused
100kg *8
140kg *6
180kg *1

Mix of good and not so good today! Cleans weren't happening, wrists hurt and was so tight I was struggling in rack position, so kept the weight down. Fairly crisp though. Deadlifts started really well, but nose went on the 250, and again on 270, and was pissing out in a stream on the 285. It even reburst on the 230s, so rather than do heavy squats I just nonced around with some light stuff to avoid losing any more blood lol!

Pulls were better this week than last, the 270 in particular was good Cool

Total time 1hr 45mins

Cheers Al, I'm quite enjoying it in a way, looking forward to 2011 Phase two when I can start hitting some big numbers again! Mind you, you're pushing some big weights yourself I see!

Push press was crappy again today, still cramping / spasming in my mid back when driving head through meaning I'm ditching the bigger weights. Lots of foam rolling and a trip to the sports masseur should sort this out. Frustrating because I can feel my press is strong at the moment!

Bench was good, the 162.5 was sloooow but solid, and very pleased with 120 3x8, that may even be a PB I think.

Back work was up 10kg and still got my reps. Overall, pretty good session Grin

Cut short the shrugs and curls due to running late and having to start work.

Total time 2 hours
