That 125 was about 8 months ago and I haven't been at that standard since on bench Angry

Going to call my PB 120 kg now for some extra motivation Happy

Strict Press (paused reps):

40 kg x 5
52.5 kg x 5
65 kg x 5

82.5 kg x 3 =PB
82.5 kg x 3
82.5 kg x 3

Going for 3 x 3 now as I heard thats good.

Push Press:

60 kg x 3
80 kg x 3
90 kg x 3

100 kg x 3 fail 4

Power jerk:

Lots of sets on 50 and 60 to get the tekkers nailed

Squats:

60 kg x 5
90 kg x 5
120 kg x 5
142.5 kg x 5

162.5 kg x 5 PB

Pendlay:

50 kg x 5
70 kg x 5

90 kg x 5 PB
90 kg x 5

Power Clean and Push Press:

50 kg x 3
80 kg x 1
90 kg x 1
95 kg x 1 = PB

Left it at 95, feels much harder when cleaned compared to from the rack!

Pull ups:

BW x 11

2 hour 10 min

I know what you mean. Push Press will be phased out for power jerk soon when I get some bigger weights nailed.

Thanks guys Happy My routine is a heavily modified version of Madcows, its going to be run as:

Sunday:

Bench Press, ramping 5 x 5 up to a top set of 5
Squats, """"""""""""""""""""""""""""
Pendlay Row, """""""""""""""""""
Pull ups
Curls

Tuesday:

Strict Press, 3 sets of 3 just below my 3RM
Push Press, 1 set of 3
Power jerk technique work
Deadlift, work up to a 5RM
Pull ups
DB shoulder press maybe

Thursday:

Bench Press: Work up to a 3RM and then back off set of 8
Squat: """"""""""""""""""
Pendlay Row: """"""""""""""
Incline DB Bench
Pull ups
Facepulls

Saying that it doesnt really look a lot like Madcows lol. When ever I reach the required reps on an exercise I put it up by 2.5 kg (or 5 kg for deadlifts)
Happy

Yeah its bench, overhead press 2 days later and then bench 2 days after that!

I find I need to bench quite regularly for it to go up... Overhead press I can get away with less frequency and make progress.

Never found recovery to be an issue really, I can't understand how some guys get away with just one or two pressing days a week :s

Well, I'm on one day a week, but I'm thinking that's not enough, so...

Is that bench and OHP on the same day? I would never do both same day personally, wouldn't be able to shift as much weight on the second exercise as I could if it had its own day
