Ben - lets f**king nail both the log and the stone! Make sure of it!

My advice would be nail as heavy log as possible (we tend to know what we are capable of that day), then leave it there, be it 115, 117 or 120

I wouldnt log after Saturday if you have a succesful no fails session....but thats just me


thats why i went back upstairs and nailed that 115 log - it is close enough to max to have some kind of mental assurance instead of the fails with 120 after just 102... felt like a wasted session at that point.

but i think you are right, i will go like that for my last log session which is on monday or tuesday - dont want to log on saturday mate because it would be weak. All my best log sessions have been when i have been feeling fresh. anything above 115 is a must but i am still gunning for 122 on that session Wink

obvioulsy, but be sensible. If 115 is hard work, call it a day there, and be happy that your only 5KG off the comp weight, and you can find that "bit extra" on the day

115 is easy. 117.5 hard and 120 impossible Grin

yesterday a nostalgic trip to the sugden gym!

In between the banter (years away, same banter) did the essential work of:

- lat attack with rows and pullups
- guns

as its traditional, there is always one random dude in the gym who does proper training and squats to depth, and he had fat grips handles, did 8 and then 9 pullups with them, great grip excercise should really keep them in!

MAX REST today.
