Member 4220, 77 posts SQ 140, BP 115, DL 180 435.0 kgs @ 86kgs UnEq	150 puts me at a 160x2 / Week 11 which I can do now without too many dramas I see where you're coming from, are your concerns with the high rep stuff? With the pic I posted I don't reckon I'll find it difficult until around week 6/7 but will hopefully have gained a little strength and endurance by then to be able to manage it. It's a bloody fine line lol

Member 4220, 77 posts SQ 140, BP 115, DL 180 435.0 kgs @ 86kgs UnEq	Cheers Jack, I definitely concentrated on getting them up as quick as poss but each one was to a dead start, mainly because my set up is wank so I'm really trying to drill that atm

Keep it focused on your next workout and with the Ortmayer routine you'll be smashing it soon enough. Have a go at sumo pulling too, as you might find it makes you concentrate on a good start which should carry over to your conventional pull.

Member 4220, 77 posts SQ 140, BP 115, DL 180 435.0 kgs @ 86kgs UnEq	Squat was teetering on the edge of stalling so decided to run the Ortmayer idea alongside deadlifts. Deliberately set it fairly low so it won't affect deads too much, deads being the main goal. Squats Bar x 20 60kg x 8, 8 90kg x 4, 4, 4, 4 (45 secs rest per set) 102.5kg x 2, 2 (60 secs rest per set) 90kg x 12 - could have done more, but gonna top out at 12 reps. Press Bar x 10 50kg x 5 60g x 5, 5, 5 Bent Over Row Bar x 20 60kg x 10 80kg x 5, 5, 5 60g x 10 Dips +15kg x 6, 6, 6 Then finished with a load of s**t, face pulls and what not
