Gone squatting Member 12, 386 posts SQ 250, BP 155, DL 260665.0 kgs @ 90kgs UnEq | Once again thanks for the comments guy. PB's are probably a bit of yet, i was always better as reps. Tuesday 16th September. OH Squats 40k x 5 60k x 5 80k x 3 90k x 3 100k x 2 105k x 2 Technically a PB (as i haven't been above 100k), however i did 100k x 5 last week so not much to shout about. Certainly wouldn't be a Tokar approved PB. Behind Neck Push Press 100k x 3 105k x 2 Got a bit of pain in the knee when bringing the bar back down on the last rep so left it there. | ||

Cheers mate. I actually really enjoy the OH squats, one of my favourite exercises. I competed in BAWLA once a few years back. I was planning to compete again this year but i shall probably wait until the new year now. | ||

Member 379, 49 posts SQ 310, BP 170, DL 290770.0 kgs @ 96kgs Eq | Hi Adam, 5 singles on 240kg, sounds like overtraining to me! remember its not a PB unless its done in Competition! Well thats my philosophy anyway. Looks like you are on your way to some decent strength gains there,you must be a little more settled and happy now. All the best, Dave. | ||

Lets just say a bit further back than January. | ||

I never seem to get round to doing any comps anyway.  | ||

Gone squatting Member 12, 386 posts SQ 250, BP 155, DL 260665.0 kgs @ 90kgs UnEq | Couple of sessions to catch up on. Thursday tried to bench but my shoulders were too sore so went up to 120k and left it there. Friday 19th September Squats 60k x 5,5 100k x 5 120k x 2 140k x 2 160k x 2 180k x 2 200k x 2 210k x 1 Knee wraps on, 180k x 2 200k x 2 Monday 22nd September OH Squats 40k x 5,5 60k x 5,5 80k x 3 90k x 3 95k x 3 100k x 6 Bench Press Rack lockouts (about an inch above chest) 60k x 5 100k x 5 110k x 3 120k x 3 130k x 3 135k x 1 + f Close Grip Bench 60k x 5 80k x 5 100k x 5 120k x 4 Did some BW chins to finish. I have decided to drop the push press for now and see how the shoulders feel, i may end up dropping the OH squats as well. I need to start getting my bench up to a reasonable level again. | ||

Member 379, 49 posts SQ 310, BP 170, DL 290770.0 kgs @ 96kgs Eq | Hi Adam, Only joking about the pb.Looks like squats and deadlifts are going up well, have you gained any weight? Maybe when you are settled you should have a look at entering another comp. My old powerlifting training partner won the NABBA novice MR Britain, at the weekend, thats junior world powerlifting champ, senior silver medal holder, and now bloody bodybuilding honours, I am very pleased for him and he is coming down to the Cheltenham Gym tonight to tell me all about it! Cheers, Dave. | ||

Cheers, Dave. Don't worry mate, i know you were joking. Bodyweight seems to be sticking around 87/88k which is good as I would like to stay in the 90k class. Also carrying around a little less weight makes mountainbiking so much easier. I will do another comp soon enough, however i will not be settling in Belfast so it may have to wait until i make my way back to Britain. I have been toying with the idea of doing the NW equipped this year, however it will be quite expensive as i have to take into consideration flights, accommodation, membership fees, event fees, etc. The whole thing would cost probably the guts of £200, which is money i want to spend on new lights for the MTB in winter. | ||
