Bench Day - Week 6 Bench Barx? 62.5x10 82.5x5 102.5x5 122.5x1 142.5x1 *add shirt* 162.5x3 172.5x2 182.5x2 187.5x2 3 Board - raw 142.5x5 142.5x10 142.5x10 Inc BB Tri Ext 50x10 (x4) DB Side Laterals 3x20 - - - - Not a lot done but what I did do felt good. The first rep of 182.5 was horrible and the press was slow. The 2nd rep was less than a 1 board away from touching and was pressed with speed and confidence. Video to upload later. | |||

Squat Day - Week 4 Squat w/ loose briefs 62.5x10 102.5x10 142.5x5 162.5x5 add belt 182.5x3 add suit / straps down 202.5x3 222.5x3 light wraps 232.5x5 Pin Squats 142.5x5 182.5x5 200.5x5 210.5x5 Pull Throughs 4x10 Reverse Hypers 3x15 - - - - I came forward on to my toes during the descent of the fourth rep of 232.5 which wasnt a good feeling. Most were a shade high though some more than others. Hopefully with triples and doubles over the next few weeks I can really focus on getting down better each and every time. | |||

Deadlift Week 4 Sumo Deadlift w/ briefs 62.5x10 102.5x10 142.5x5 182.5x2 202.5x2 222.5x1 232.5x1 242.5x1 Rack Pulls bottom of kneecap 180x3 220x3 *straps* 240x3 250x3 Reverse Hypers BWx15 (x3) - - - - Felt f**king brutal today. Kids have not been sleeping the past few nights and it has caught up on me. 242.5 felt awkward but moved steady. Extra bloat is tightening the equipment too and my setup felt strange. I didnt have another rep at it anyway. I will get the double with it in two weeks time after a slight deload. | |||

MrSmall said:Where do you get pulled pork from incidentally? I make it in the slow cooker. Pork shoulder, 1 litre apple juice and 1 onion together on high for 8 hours. Drain off liquid, remove fat and disgard, pull meat apart with forks and stir in a bottle of bbq sauce. Add a few splashes of drained juice back in and return to slow cooker on low for 4 hours. Average pork shoulder will make about 8 servings. | |||

Bench - Week 3 Bench Barxlots 60x10 80x5 100x5 120x1 130x1 140x1 *add shirt* 150x2 160x2 170x2 182.5x2 (2nd rep so f**king close to touch) *shirt off* *3 board* 140x3 150x3 160x3 High In BB 90x8 90x8 100x8 Front Laterals/Side Laterals (DBs) 10sx20 / 10sx20 (2 rounds) V Bar Pressdowns stackx8 +20kgx8 +30kgx6 stackx8 - - - - Set the bench up in the rack today. Descent which slow again as I felt really off balance. Pressing was really quick though and I got so close to touching the last rep of the 182.5 set. | |||

Squat - Week 3 (~78%) Squat 72.5x10 122.5x5 142.5x3 162.5x3 *add belt* 182.5x3 *add suit straps down* 202.5x3 212.5x2 *v loose wraps* 222.5x5 Pin Squats @ parallel 142.5x5 162.5x3 182.5x3 192.5x3 - - - - I have managed to get my weight back up (106.8 first thing this morning) but with that, the suit is getting much tighter. It is locking up harder and higher. Desperate to get more weight on the bar though I am not stupid enough to think that this is the only reason I am not getting there. The reps on the set of 222.5 got progressively deeper though the 5th rep still wasnt proper depth. Hopefully, sitting back better and getting my knees out more will be a start. The pin squats were a hole lower and were a disaster. I got lower back pump so badly that I didnt even want to know. Maybe get some more accessory done tonight. This is all I had time for. | |||
