Belt on 160 x 1 - Horrible rep. However, 5kg away from my max and this was unpshyched and at a lighter body weight. Also didnt eat much today So good session Rack pulls from just below the kneww worked up to 210 x 1 - PB here aswell Also how could I forget. Neil set up a crazy band apparatus that took about 70kg off at the bottom and 50kg at the top. It was a weird experience. Worked up to 250kg x 1. So worked out at about locking out 200kg. Quite a strange but good session, also so much for a deload. My strength is back and even more there i think | ||

Member 1543, 288 posts SQ 175, BP 115, DL 210500.0 kgs @ 92.5kgs UnEq | Squats 5s week 100 x 5 115 x 5 130 x 5 150 x 1 160 x 1 - Videoed this rep. I didn't get what Ken said the other night when he asked if I always lean so far forward. Looking at the video I now know what he means. I don't get my hips under the bar when setting up and do more of a semi good morning. I think I need to concetrate on pushing my chest through more. Since my forward lean caused my hips to come up quicker than the rest of my body as you will see in the video. Speed deadlift with a 2" defecit. - 100kg 10 sets of 2 reps. I seem to be able to pull these quicker than my regular from the floor deadlifts. I will have to get a video to show what I mean/ see whats going wrong. 45 Deg back ext 1 x 15 bw 1 x 10 mini band 2 x 15 blue band Rope pull throughs 4 x 8, last 4 settings on the stack. Pull down abs, side bends and the plank Finished off by using a foam roller and then by using a med ball to loosen off my legs. | ||

Member 1543, 288 posts SQ 175, BP 115, DL 210500.0 kgs @ 92.5kgs UnEq | Easy session for me today. Just thought I would take in my newly aquired gymnastic rings and see what they could do. Done dips, push ups, inverted rows, chins, face pulls, ab fallouts and rev flyes with them. All for about 5 reps for about 5 times. Weird experience but can definatly see how they will help the stabilizing muscles in my shoulders. Regular Chin ups 10 x 3 Done some power snatch bar x 10 30 x 5 40 x 5 50 x 5 | ||

 as crimson as my last victims underclothing..... Member 899, 11371 posts SQ 180, BP 132.5, DL 190502.5 kgs @ 118kgs UnEq | Your training looks like it's going great just now  I know the feeling on the squat. I have the exact same thing going on right now with mine. I find it hard to get under the bar the way that other people do. | ||

Member 1543, 288 posts SQ 175, BP 115, DL 210500.0 kgs @ 92.5kgs UnEq | Cheers man aye it feels like its going alright hoping to hit some PBs at districts hopefully. I feel that my strength has came back after my stupid 5 weeks off at Christmas/Jan. Also yeah I think its the rack at the uni. Im going to use the ER one next time I am squatting and hopefully since it has smaller adjustable increments I will be able to properly get under the bar. Also well done on your squat PBs from the other day. | ||

Member 899, 11371 posts SQ 180, BP 132.5, DL 190502.5 kgs @ 118kgs UnEq | Thanks bud I've trained in your gym before but luckily I was using the big adjustable rack on the platform near the mirror. A good rack makes a difference. All the best for the upcoming comp. Looking forward to seeing you hit some PBs! | ||
