 vegetarian with a big deadlift - who would have thought... Member 340, 13300 posts SQ 315, BP 190, DL 350855.0 kgs @ 110kgs UnEq | Good luck with the comeback, great deermination to back to it after that setback. Are you going to do the u90kg circuit next year or let your weight go higher? Here is a squat routine I like and has wroked for myself and others: http://joeskopec.com/coancalc.html | ||

Are you going to do the u90kg circuit next year or let your weight go higher? Here is a squat routine I like and has wroked for myself and others: http://joeskopec.com/coancalc.html Cheers mate. If i'm honest i'm too tall i think for under 90's (smidge under 6 foot) but not really strong enough for the under 105's yet, bit of a crap place to be really! My weight at the moment is about half a kg over 90kg and is holding around that ok after a low of 83kg after my hard cut. Most of the weight gone on is muscle thanks to muscle memory. If i can hold this weight while ramping up my strength gains remains to be seen. I'm trying not to focus on where my weight goes (fed up with that in bodybuilding), i'm just eating plenty of clean food and training hard to get my strength levels right up, where my weight ends up it ends up but next year under 90's would be good way to break back in ideally. Cheers for the link to squat routine mate i'll check that out, appreciated. | ||

Member 340, 13300 posts SQ 315, BP 190, DL 350855.0 kgs @ 110kgs UnEq | I wouldn't worry about being too tall if you are in good shape and feel strong at that weight... PAGAN (Mark Hodgson) is about 6ft and is one of the top ten u90kg strongmen in Britain. | ||

I think i will try to control the bodyweight and go for the under 90's, more acheivable for me next year i think. Thanks for you advice mate. | ||

Likes tight rubber Member 2981, 11067 posts SQ 242.5, BP 192.5, DL 330765.0 kgs @ 92.9kgs UnEq | Event Day Nearly didn't bother with this as my back was/is in a world of pain from deadlifting thursday. My lower back is always the weak link and i struggle with recovery with it but i got some work done: 18" Deadlifts, raw just a belt - warmed up then 245kg x 1, 265kg x 1 PB, 275kg x 1 PB, 282.5kg x F, 265kg x 1, x 1 Previous post accident PB was a feable 250kg and i've been wanting to try a maximum out a again for a few weeks, also wanted to see how my grip was for my deadlift maximum in the coming weeks. The 245kg felt really easy so i knew a PB was there so decided to throw on 2 10kg plates and pulled an easy 265kg. I'd been wanting to pull over 600lbs again for a long time and the 275kg went up no problem at all. My best ever 18" was 280kg at 19+ stone so i wanted to try beat my best ever so went to 282.5kg but wouldn't even shift! It'll go next time for certain and my goal of 300kg hopefully come soon. Over the moon with this considering feeling not 100%, was hoping for 260kg before workout and ended with a comfy 275kg! Also grip is spot on - good for way more than i can currently lift so thats good. Feeling pretty beat up but wanted to work on my crap log press.. Log press, clean on first rep - 80kg x 4 rep pb, x 2, x 2, x2, x2 Really need to work on these, finding the drive to push press hard with a log, 15kg under my oly bar press and 6kg under axle press. In fact my pressing as a whole needs bringing up but it is progressing quickly. Lower back pretty sore by this point so finished with: Farmers Holds 107kg x 25 secs PB, x 21 secs As soon as i get my collars for xmas i want to start working these hard as it used to be a good event for me but i think its going to feel far different at this lighter weight. These felt ok though and pretty happy with grip. Hoping to get my yoke made next few weeks then i can begin practice with more moving events. Did a little bit of ab work and load of stretching and called it a day...pretty damn pleased, coming back pretty well. | ||

Overhead events were always a weakness for me so i'm working hard to get the numbers right up. I want to try and work on my split jerks too as i feel this is the only way for me to get some descent weight going up, tough to master though isn't it?! | ||
