BDFPA Southern Counties at Kings Park Bournemouth (29/01/2011)

Squat
  • 140K - Easy
  • 155K - Easy enough
  • 170K - FAIL burried



Bench
  • 95K - Easy
  • 105K - Straight forward
  • 110K - FAIL - came off my chest ok, stuck halfway


Deadlift
  • 190K - Easy
  • 210K - A little slow off the floor but still solid
  • 225K - FAIL - bar didnt move


Totalled 470K, so a fair bit down, I think with sensible lifting choices I could have got 485 or 490.

The aim of the day was to qualify then have a play. Attempted a bench and deadlift PB and failed both. Final squat was an equal PB attempt. On the day strength was a little down.

New plan is to always keep a rep or 2 in the tank, not grind anything out whilst still adding weight to the bar. First time I have done board press and its good.

I will ramping the weight up steeply as the weeks go on as its the British soon. After that I am going to introduce a proper cycle, probably 10 weeks.

Do you just rest the board on your chest Paul or is there some kind of attachment?

I just got a 3rd spotter to hold a scrap bit of wood on my chest. I bring the bar down, pause (briefly) with the bar resting on the wood, then press it up.
