Simon_T said:Nice PB there pal, def ditch them straps, it will help your grip out and toughen up your hands. cheers. yea i found that my technique felt more fluent with chalk too and that the choice of adjusting my grip between reps can be helpfull. | |||

| 20/09/10 squats bar x 12 70kg x 10 90kg x 8 100kg x 5 100kg x 5 100kg x 6 Bench press bar to warm up and stretch. 60kg x 10 80kg x 8 90kg x 4 100kg x 4 110kg x 1 (current PB) 115kg x fail 85kg x 8 tricep dips BW x 10 bw+10kg x 8 wide grip bw+10kg x 8 squats were ok today, feel like they might be getting somewhere. 110kg felt easyish and wanted to try 112.5 but the gym i was at only had 2.5kg plates or higher so i tried 115kg, just missed it so was a bit gutted but i still feel something bigger than 110 will go up in the near future.(hopefully) | |||

vausie said:todays trainin deadlifts 60kgx10 speed 100kgx8 speed 130kgx6 speed 150kgx1 170kgx1 190kgx1 left it there as the 190 was a struggle and my back was startin to ache more rest needed before goin heavy strict press with power clean 55kgx5 55kgx5 55kgx5 bench 45kgx10 65kgx6 75kgx1 85kgx1 75kgx1 65kgx6 happy enough with this as i was trainin alone with no spotter i didnt fancy goin heavyier although the 85 was fairly easy no strugglin or pauses nice and smooth some work with dumbells overhead and machines shrugs 70kgx15 70kgx15 70kgx15 steady away this session kinda let me kno where im at after afew injurys i feel strong overhaed on the strict press, deadlift form needs more work but happy tht i pulled a 190 carryin minor niggles in my back with decent form. happy with bench also never been tht high on my own with confidence to be sure of hittin it gunna take a week off relax and come up with a program tht sees more compund movements something iv lacked and more volume to be included on the scales this mornin weighed in at 73 kilos a week off while eating like a pig always does me a world of good when i feel like i need one! The trick is to stay keen wthout giving in and going to train | |||
