 has spent time in a modern educational setting Member 47, 1221 posts | I'll start with a very quick background: I've been on Sugden for nearly six years but haven't posted regularly for (at least) the last couple so most of you (probably) won't know me. I've trained very inconsistently since about 2005 and, at best, would describe myself as a 'journeyman' Strongman - an 'ex' one at that. I want to deadlift, at least, 300kg at some point in my life so I thought that I should get moving. Enough of that... 20/12/12 Deadlift various warmups 220kg X 2 220kg X 2 Push Press warmups 100kg X 1 105kg X f I then had a go at some Pendlay rows before heading home. 24/12/12 Deadlifts warmups 230kg X f (I was very confident that I would manage a single but I failed at the knees) 200kg X 5 200kg X 5 Push Press warmups 100kg X 1 105kg X 1 105kg x f Some more Pendlay Rows. I'm intentionally keeping things very simple at the moment. If I manage to be consistent with this style of training, I'll 'complicate' matters in the near future. Dan Baker, President of the Australian Strength & Conditioning Association, was in the gym this morning and we had a really good chat. Just a few minutes of talking to a bloke with that kind of knowledge was priceless, IMHO.  | ||

I can't believe that I've not (really) progressed since I met you all those years ago. It's totally my own fault (for having diabolical/non-existent training habits) but I'm just feeling a bit of regret right now. I suppose that it's better to feel regret now, though, than in another 10 years. | ||
