Nice one Sam, im looking forward to doing low reps with heavy weight again soon, the high reps at the moment are just until ive got rid of this cold. Also how many reps have you ever managed on the 3plates/140kg bench press? over 20reps? | |||

| 20/03/2012 Bench Press Warm up sets done then the following working sets... 14reps x 140kg PB! 7reps x 160kg Flat Bench Dumbbell Press 12reps x 60kg 6reps x 60kg...exhausted from previous set! Standing Strict Barbell Press 5reps x 100kg 3reps x 140kg light wrist wraps on ...Still nursing this annoying cold but totally forgot about it due to training partner motivating me and getting some good workload done! Cant wait until this virus has gone so i handle some real poundage and none of this high rep shenanigans lol | |||

Thing said: Dude I use to be the same but decided that in needed to change and forced myself to use the clean technique and it's 200% better so I think you should try, it will take a while but it's worth it. It's the tortoise race for me and a slow build up so 135x5 next time. Youll certainly have the 135kg x 5reps next time, ill put grub on it!  | |||

Thing said:Even with a cold solid raw squats dude Thanks Neil, honestly couldve got a few more reps if i didnt have this pesky cold & my fitness was abit better, oh well next time will roll around soon enough | |||

Awesome front squatting Neil, ill say it again though... there's more in the tank judging by how controlled & fast those reps looked! Also its cool how you can grip the barbell like that....i lack the flexibility so have to used crossed arms technique  | |||

Post Edited: 19.03.2012 @ 22:24 PM by Chris_L 19/03/2012Back Squats (beltless) warm up sets done then working sets as followed.. 12reps x 140kg 8reps x 160kg 7reps x 160kg 8reps x 140kg One Hand Loose Plate Pinch (2x15kg plates) I.M Hub ....worked up to 3reps x 15kg & 1rep x 17.5kg ...Felt rather under the weather today as ive got an unwanted cold  So i decided to be sensible and use medium weight and higher reps as i lack the energy to squat heavy today, nothing special done but a half decent workout is better than nothing ! ....glad i got my gluteus maximus to the gym | |||

kirkynick said: Great stuff Chris! I reckon you should be able to put up some big numbers in the one-handed deadlift, what with you overall strength. You have awesome pressing strength. I have none. If only I could make the rest of my body as strong as my grip LOL Thanks Nick, for me the secret for big pressing is pressing regularly, training the assisting muscles, getting sufficient sleep & nutrition Ill let you know what i manage to one-hand dealift when i get round to trying it, i think its going to be a challenge to get the balance right when performing the one hand version deadlift | |||

kirkynick said:Hi Chris! What are you actually training for? You msut have a mighty grip... have you ever tried one-handed deadlifts? Hello Nick, im basically training in strongman/powerlifting fashion at the moment i do intend to be a grip specialist in the future (LONG way to go i know lol)...also i want to achieve a raw world class bench at some point in my lifetime One-handed deadlifts (on a normal Olympic bar i presume)? Not yet tried them, i might have a go next week to see what i can pull I remember watching your video of one-handed dealifts and i was very impressed! Time to get your mitts on some grippers my friend youll do well im sure | |||
