doesnt work hard enough in the gym Member 1492, 2138 posts SQ 170, BP 145, DL 195510.0 kgs @ 112kgs UnEq | First competition in a long while Huge thanks to Funky Monkey who assisted me and Finch who shouted at me ! East Midlands Unequipped at Letchworth Weighed in at 111.1 (!) Squats - warm ups went ok, 60/100/140/160 - opened at 170, then 180 and a fail at 190 Bench - warm ups 60/80/100 - opened at 125, then 135 then 142.5 (2 whites for uneven lock) Deads - warm ups 100/150/190 - opened at 210 (no belt) then 220 and a fail at 230 Total was 542.5 - pretty fair reflection of my training at the moment Highlight of the day was watching Tony Cliffe get over 850 (I think) in my class - smooth as an otter's cravat. Nice bloke too - traps that needed their own postcode ! Qualifying total for the British Masters is under my belt - and seeing Tony and other's lift make me realise there is a lot more there to do ... onwards Sadly Tescos had 4 "finest" scones for sale at 26p .... and I had a pot of clotted cream and a jar or jam in the fridge .... the day ended very well indeed ! | ||

Your 180 squat looked VERY comfortable and your lifts were definitely good. Job well done methinks. Tony Cliffe has just "filled out his weight class", mainly with his traps. | ||

Gonna outlive my opposition !! Member 123, 4038 posts SQ 202.5, BP 135.0, DL 232.5570.0 kgs @ 117kgs UnEq | Good to meet you yesterday Phil, you lifted well, with the two exceptions! From where I sat it looked like a lack of confidence cost you the third squat and the last deadlift was down to leaving technique in the warm up room. There is certainly more to come this year. | ||

Probably alternating heavy bench and heavy overhead. | ||
