BobSadler said:Nothing to report other than I am fed up of the injuries, fed up of all the politics and bickering, fed up of training heavy all the time, fed up of wasting money on kit and comps etc – just fed up with powerlifting in general! Follow your heart Bob. It's not so easy to give up as you think. Just give up the comps and the kit for a while, see where that takes you. | |||

Monday, 19th April, start 16:55 As the next comp is only about a month away i will stick with the new suit, no heroics tonight, not singles so this could be harsh. We have also gained some more weights and had a reshuffle around so now gentle reader I am squatting in kilos. Squat, new suit, straps down, naked knees, no belt. KILOS 60 x 5 60 x 5 60 x 5 60 x 5 60 x 5 straps up 100 x 5 100 x 5 140 x 5 180 x 5 wraps on 200 x 3 220 x 3 240 x 3 240 x 3 The intention was to do 240/250/240 all for three, but the 240 was heavy enough tonight and we decided it would be prudent to skip the 250 and just do another at 240. After weeks of singles tis is always hard and I haven't been at the top of my game today, nothing spectacular, just one of those things. End 18:30 | |||

Gordon Brown is a fat, dozy, half-witted, snivelling, retarded c**t. He has consistantly f**ked things up since 1997, yet he stands there grinning like a t**t and is still blissfully unaware what all the fuss is about. Vote for who you like but please, pretty please, pretty please with sugar on, don't vote for that dopey, fat c**t. | |||

Friday, 16 th April, start 16:00 Deadlift, raw, slippers but no belt, all weights in kilos 70 x 5 70 x 5 70 x 5 70 x 5 70 x 5 110 x 5 110 x 5 140 x 5 Straps used from here, Alan wants me using straps for a while, the official reason is that it is one less thing to think about, but I suspect there is more to it than that. 180 x 3 220 x 3 240 x 3 250 x 3 220 x 3 Deadlift from hang, just below the knee, still kilos 180 x 5 190 x 5 200 x 5 tbar row, very strict, still kilos 60 x 10 60 x 10 60 x 10 60 x 10 60 x 10 And that is that, the back was a bit ginger after yesterday's violence but held up well, the straps caused my wrists some grief but I'll get used to it. LittleA popped in and benched and deadlifted, DrRick benched for a change, Phil the Behemoth squatted and Turner gibbered like a crazy man. Nothing unusual there then except maybe LittleA's bench, he usually trains vertically. Offski 17:30 and home in time for eggheads | |||

BobSadler said: Pete, Board presses both raw and shirted and from various heights have really boosted my triceps and my shirted press over the past few months. Yes, I think that would be favourite, but boarded benches take three assistants, this should not be a problem, but a plan B is required just in case it ever it | |||

nico said:Belated congratulations Pete. I've just been watching the squat videos and it reminded me of all the stuff I learned watching you squat (on video) a year or two back. As a smart man once said, it worked so well, I stopped doing it. I'm now going to watch those videos again. As a smart man once said, it worked so well - beautiful, I had almost forgotten that. There has been quite a bit of work done on my squat, but nine white lights made it all worth while. Just have to ramp the weights up now | |||

Physio tonight. My lower back has felt creaky since the comp. He asked me to touch my toes, slowly I managed to grunt and gasp my way about half way down my shins. This is not good and some considerable violence followed, when my tears had dried, I had to try again. This time I really rather smoothly and silently touched the top of my cotton socks and felt toe nails beneath. Mr. Cosgrove is a talented man and I don't care who knows it. | |||

Wednesday. 13th April, start 15:45 Last of my three days off today, back in work tomorrow, hence the early start. Easy does it Close grip bench, all weights in pounds 45 x 20 45 x 20 45 x 20 135 x 5 135 x 5 135 x 5 185 x 5 225 x 5 265 x 5 285 x 5 265 x 5 265 x 6 Seated military press on smith machine, again pounds 110 x 5 120 x 5 130 x 5 140 x 5 140 x 5 overhead cable tricep extension, kilos now 45 x 10 55 x 10 65 x 10 75 x 10 75 x 10 The close grips came as a bit of a shock to my system, which only serves to indicate that I needed them. The last set was a 6 as Alan decided the fifth was not difficult enough and so insisted on another. I have weak triceps it would seem, which does not bode well for shirted benching. End 16:15 and offski, home to wash the car, shower, update the log and then, hmmmmm, let me see, it is Wednesday after all. Go on then, later boys and girls. | |||
