i hope your right. 240 was end of year goal originally but think i was abit optimistic.
il be happy with 235 tho cos thats how much weight i bought wen i got my oly plates/bar, once i hit that i said il buy some more weights and wont be bothered about the cost cos it means iv got stronger. il see how next couple weeks go b4 deciding on a number to attempt.

was randomly sick this morning, cold has about f**ked off altho still got a sore throat. anyway.....

squats
20 x 5, 5
60 x 5
90 x 5
120 x 5
140 x 5 - belt on
paused squats
120 x 5 - belt on
110 x 5

cudnt find a pain free stance today so didnt go quite as heavy as i planned on all sets but 140x5 was todays main goal. 1 of the easier weeks iv had for a while on squats but even so the last rep of each set was quite challenging, doubt id of got more than 5 on 140. some reason they didnt feel as smooth as they did a couple weeks back (last week felt 'off' aswell)

db curls @ 20kgs x 8 x 2 sets

db hammers @ 30kgs x 5 x 2 sets

db inc curls @ 15kgs x 10 x 2 sets

rev curls @ 20-30kg x 10 x 3 sets

nothing special but happy to get the req sets done on squats this week, this is my new squat plan for a while. work up beltless, top set belted, drop weight n do a set paused, drop weight n do paused beltless. a good mix of belt/beltless and normal/paused and what i consider an ok amount of volume

cant train over weekend so squeezed pressing in today. arms feel really sore.

pissing it down so managed to fit the log inside so i can do standing press, altho not a lot of room n bit scared of breaking something or hurting myself as they was no were to ditch it if anything went wrong.

strict log - paused on chest
40 x 5
60 x 5
70 x 3
80 x 3 - tris hurting Unhappy
90 x 2
100 x 3 PB - clean wasnt the best so 1st rep was slightly off my ideal press line (started the press a bit low so it went a tiny bit forwards) and the worst rep out of the 3. 2nd rep was very smooth, 3rd rep slow but steady and consistant all the way to lockout.
90 x 5


wide grip bench paused
20 x 5
50 x 5
80 x 3
100 x 3
110 x 1
120 x 1
(93% of 1rm, 90s rest)
130 x 1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1

triceps felt smashed all the way through since the 80kg log set. by time i got to 130 sets on bench i doubt i cud of got 2 reps on the 1st set, tri's cramped up at every lockout and was so painful i had to let out a short 'AARRGGHH' almost every rep. f**king agony and horrible all the way, n i thought this would be fun lol.

seriously no exageration on tricep pain. hopefully with better tris bench will be more enjoyable and il be good for more weight. i upped the rest to 90 instead of 60 to compensate for logging beforehand.

also very happy with log, im quite confident of a 110 strict before new year if i can make the clean Eek

haha wud of been quite easy if it had been a normal day. tris were a bit tired last week after log but the 140 last week was way easier, comfier, faster than todays 120 let alone the 130 sets. i cudnt even press the 50kg very fast today cos of the pain.

i knew you'd comment on the rest times wen i decided to do 90s lol. honestly if id of done any less rest i wudnt of made it past 2 sets. had to massage in between the sets, i will try 60s next week. its definately a better option after log to get more work done.

thanks paul, i hope your right. altho deadlift is only 1 of many weak links i have. i think i really need to work on speed with events and endurance/fitness to be competitive. aswell as bring static lifts up. a lot of work to be done next year thats for sure

strict press
20 x 20,20
40 x 5
60 x 5
70 x 3
80 x 3
90 x 3
100 x 3, fail 4th. PB
105 x f, f. not even close
90 x 4 - paused

the 3rd rep on 100 wasnt easy but certainly not a battle as i thoguth it wud be so tried the 4th but everything gave up by then. wanted at least 5 on the 90 set too but obviously tiring by this point.

cgbp - paused
20 x 5
50 x 5
80 x 5
100 x 3
110 x 2
120 x 1
130 x 4 - equal pb (been wanting 5 for a while but each time the 4th has been a battle, altho was a bit easier than last time i attempted it, might of gone fresh?)
140 x 2 - PB for paused

db bench
50's x 8 cheap PB

did this instead of a down set for reps as the lad i train with was doing db's and iv not tried 50's for 9 month now, was curious to see how i did. didnt lay back on bench properly n ended up with left shoulder blade hanging over the side, felt like i was laid diagonal, also clipped the pins on the odd rep which threw me off and somehow cut my forearm. happy with 8 reps tho, reckon theirs 10 there with a bit more practice Cool

finished with 2 sets of flys n out of time.

wanted a vid of 100x3 but forgot to get camera out beforehand n i remembered just as i was physching up for it and they was also a bit of assing about with stuff in the way as it was.
