Hi Bill happy new year to you! hope your training going okay.
Was hoping to do the raw world cup in Sweden but masters not included. Want to compete in Europe so going all out equipped this year instead - try and get selected. See how it goes am really buzzing at the moment so hoping motivation will carry me into the 650kg total plus area I need to be in!


650 that shouldn't be too difficult 230-240 squat, 230-240 deadlift and 170-180 bench. That should not be too difficult for you. You are not far off that now and have barely used squat and deadlift equipment

Yeah should be ok but to be sure of getting into medals I need to push through to the 700 mark. Think it will come though if I keep the training consistent and as ever don't get injured. Are you competing this year?

Friday afternoon
Maintenance squat
8x bar 8x60 8x100 6x130 suit on no wraps 4x160 suit plus wraps 3x180 2x200 2x210
All deep and legal felt strong. Could have gone on but will save it for a 230 attempt on Tuesday. 200kg will be an easy opener at this rate already 30kg above my raw opener and I have only worn suit and wraps for a week! Bigger warmup steps much better leaving me more in tank for the last big sets.
Not tired so loaded up bar to 240kg and did 4x partial squats down to 7 holes on cage. Loaded up to 260kg and repeated. Do the same next week and try and get down to 6 holes! weights feel heavy walking out but manageable once settled. Confidence and motivation sky high. Need to lift 260kg squat by Europeans to be in chance of an M2 medal but finally looking a possibilty. 6 months ago was a pipe dream!!!!
Big thanks to Brian and Sean at Meadowfield gym for spotting! They gonna need some more free weights at this rate lol!

Sunday bench press
warm up 8x60 8x90 6x110 4x120 3x130 1x137.5 new 48 super katana on 3 boards couldnt touch with 155 tried 165 touched, 2 boards 170 touched, 1 board 180 touched and locked out. not bad for first session in a new shirt. Very pleased think this shirt will really work for me. Much more support through arms, shirt not jacked so potential to load some big weights. Could happily open on a PB 180 with this shirt it gives that much extra rebound than my 44 fury even tho its painful to use lol! Finally feels like I am in the right size katana even if the arms are a bit loose. just wish I had more time to practice in it before GBPF champs. Probs will still use it tho as I fancy a crack at 200kg! Besides I have Ian Kinghorn to beat a 190 plus bencher and I wont get that in a fury!
Weighted dips first time in a while bwt x8 20x8 40x6 50x5 60x4

Tuesday heavy squats
warm up 8xbwt 8x bar 8x70 8x100 5x140 suit on 2x160 wraps on 1x180 1x200 1x215 1x230 (came up very well but deemed 1 inch off legal depth so no PB!). Annoyed I didnt quite make depth on last one but at least I know I can handle the weight! 200kg should be an easy starter for comp.
Bench press
8x60 8x90 8x110 6x120 stopped shoulders sore. Went home to take ibruprofen to reduce inflamation. Now training equipped 2 sessions a week on bench more than sufficient I think from now on.

Excellent deadlifting Chris. Well done on the PBs. You seem to be on a roll at the minute with the equipped lifting

Pulled a calf muscle again yesterday running on treadmill very frustrating so no heavy squats for me today. Just hope repairs quickly so I can lift properly at comp a week on Saturday. Always happens when things going too well..........
Light bench session instead just to stop going mad!
warm up 8x60 8x90 8x110 6x120 3x130 1x137.5 shirt on 3x155 2 board 1x160 1 board 1x165 to chest. Quite a struggle. Not recovered from Sunday. No more bench now till next Sunday.

Its equipped but am still very happy with progress. Another 6 months and I think 260 will be a real possibility equipped with a 245 raw.
