3/3 Assisted squats, 2 *3. Assisted overhead squats, 2 * 3. Paused front squats 150 * 5, 5, 170 * 3, 3, 180 * 2, 2, 190 * 1, 1. Hugely long day at work today so no energy for anything else. Briefly considered doing squats afterwards but only did a few singles with 180 and the knee pain was fairly unpleasant, no idea why as front squats were fine. If it persists next week i will bring it up with my physio. Massage in the morning and then speed deadlifts. | |||

1/3 Assisted squats, 2 * 3. Paused squats 180 * 3, 3, 200 * 3, 3, 220 * 2, 2. Axle deadlifts 180 * 3, 3, 220 * 3, 3, 240 * 2, 2. Sandbag over yoke 100 * 5, 5, 10. Lying leg curls, 3 * 8. Doh apollons axle holds 135 * 15s, 15s, 15s. Monster db pick ups 45 * 10, 10. Not a bad session today, though nothing spectacular. Squats felt a little rough due to some pain in my knee. Axle deads were just to try out the figure 8 straps, felt a little tight across the wrist, but gave me a solid grip on the axle so they are fit for purpose. Conditioning and grip work were fairly standard, though the final set of sandbag was very hard work, definitely got the lungs working. | |||

It will certainly be a new record, but more like the hummer tyre deadlift record than an actual world deadlift record. | |||

Shaws is an impressive lift, but he has done everything possible to match the set up they will lift on at Arnolds and i dont think he can go much heavier. I will be very surprised if sub 1020lbs is enough to beat Ed or Z on this one. | |||

I was in rough shape today and looking forward to a day of rest, but as im no longer training tomorrow events was bumped up. Trained with Sugdens own, Super boy Paul Smith. Had a pretty decent session considering the state i was in, and a thoroughly enjoyable day with one of my favourite guys in the sport. | |||

25/2 Assisted squats, 2 * 3. Assisted overhead squats, 2 * 3. Paused front squats 150 * 3, 5, 170 * 3, 3, 180 * 2, 2, 190 * 1, 1. Speed squats 180 * 2, 2, 2, 2, 2. Hack squats, 5, 5, 10. Not a bed session tonight, front squats felt a bit heavy, but no real danger of failure (other than my grip slipping the first set, hence only 3 reps). Speed squats moved well, bar was getting a little air at the top of the rep. Deadlifts on the cards for tomorrow. | |||

I know first hand that DB is awful and you made it look depressingly comfortable. Go you. | |||

Sandbag work was this weeks conditioning as i couldn't really use the tyre in the rain. | |||
